CDE Login Error

Krishna Kumar Swarnkar — Tue, 25 Jan 2011 16:58:09 GMT

I'm getting the following error when login to CDE "Couldn't recreate the Desktop Actions/DataTypes Database. Check disk space and/or permissions"

Shalom,

Check permissions on the .dc folders in the user home directoy, make sure the user owns them and/or has write permission.

It is not good for these folders or files within to be owned by root.

iam not getting any .dc folder inside user home directory.

".dc"? Close?

ls -ld ~/.dt
ls -l ~/.dt

(And so on.)

As "Check disk space and/or permissions"
might suggest, a full file system could cause
this sort of problem, too.

Permission for all .dt folder are same given below:

drwxr-xr-x 7 jafar HP-OS 8192 Jan 25 15:40 /home/jafar/.dt
drwxr-xr-x 7 krishna HP-OS 8192 Jan 25 22:29 /home/krishna/.dt
drwxr-xr-x 7 nikhil HP-OS 8192 Jan 25 15:30 /home/nikhil/.dt
drwxr-xr-x 7 vaibhav HP-OS 8192 Jan 25 15:29 /home/vaibhav/.dt

And file system usage is given as under:

You need to recursively check the ownership of the contents of the .dt directory.

ll -d /tmp ? or is it full -->
cd /tmp
bdf . ?
