Re: DCOPServer could not be started

I don't know if you found anything out as of yet, but I had the same issue and resolved it by deleting both the /tmp/.ICE_unix directory and the ~/.DCOPserver_<machinename>_-0 link. Logged out and it worked fine. Trying to find out if KDE's bugzilla has a report on this as of yet

On my computer the problem occured because of a crash of the whole system.

removing /tmp/.ICE_unix directory and the ~/.DCOPserver_<machinename>_-0 worked for me.

thanks!

    removing /tmp/.ICE_unix directory and the ~/.DCOPserver* also worked for me.

on my machine (mandrake 9.1) the problem was that it was configured to get a hostname (which looked like this: 1,6,<mac-address of my nic>) from the dhcp server of my isp, which dcopserver seems quite to dislike.

the solution was to enter a hostname in /etc/hostname and to prevent dhcp from resetting it. to achieve this you just have to open /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 (in my case eth1 is the nic connected to my cable modem) and change the line "NEEDHOSTNAME=yes" to "NEEDHOSTNAME=no"
