GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 728613
Crashing on local note sync on initial merge of two databases
Last modified: 2021-05-17 16:17:34 UTC
I have two computers for which I want to sync notes. Both notes databases are completely different. I use the local directory sync option with a network drive. Syncing from gnote A into an emtpy directory: Directory get populated as it should. Syncing from gnote B into the same directory: gnote B crashes. Syncing from gnote A again works, but is relatively useless. gnote B will always crash.
Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. Without a stack trace from the crash it's very hard to determine what caused it. Can you get us a stack trace? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so. Thanks in advance!
I can not reproduce it localy. If it's reproducible reliably to you, please, try to obtain a stack trace.

I cannot get an error in the stack trace. The program "exited normally", but it quits, leaves a "lock" file in the sync directory and did not sync any notes. (gdb) run Starting program: /usr/bin/gnote [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".

(gdb) quit File details on my sync attempt I attached to this report. Is there another way I can help? I am using Ubuntu-Gnome 14.04 and had this problem in all prior versions as well. However, gnote was only available in a very outdated version before 14.04.
