Re: DCOPServer could not be started
by Dremus on Wednesday 09/Oct/2002, @22:23

I've got the same problem with my SuSE Linux 7.3:
Starting Linux and X-Server will show me the graphical login-screen. I switch to Textmode [Ctrl-Alt-F3], login as root and start the text-based setup-tool YAST.
I searched for installed packages with "dcopserver", deinstall & reinstall it and shutdown the computer.
After starting again, everything works fine (until the next time error ??). I can't explain it, because I'm Linux-newbie. May be, specialists will do it for me.

One of my colleagues had this problem.
It appeared that she was out of disk space (due to quota limitations).
When logging in, the system could not make a .DCOPserver_hostname:0 file under her account that contains data about the sockets KDE uses.
Starting KDE, the system starts looking for this .DCOPserver_hostname:0 file, which is not there (of course).
This generates the error.

Raising the quota, or deleting some files is a solution here.

That worked for me. Thanks. I am using Bastille and that turned on quotas.
