[Solved] SystemSettings problem in Kde4

[g2sws]

I am hoping some can help. When I launch systemsettings and go to advanced user settings and choose Desktop search the system settings window dies. I launched it in konsole and this is what I get before it dies.

any help would sure be appreciated and maybe I will learn something.

is that on a 2009 install? Does not crash but works perfectly fine in 2010b1. Make sure to have kdebase4-runtime-nepomuk installed, if not then install it, logout and login, systemsettings -> advanced -> Desktop search: enable Nepomuk & Strigi, press Apply and all works fine.
-p.

It is on a 2010b1

I guess everyone is gone for the weekend?

[muungwana]

can you open the terminal and type this(copy and paste it):

ldd /usr/lib/soprano/libsoprano_sesame2backend.so

there seem to be a broken dependency and this thread should be in broken package section

not that may people if such people exists use this kde4 nepomuk and strigi stuff here

[g2sws]

Thanks for the reply muungwana. I am at work right now and I am away from my personal computer. As soon as I get home in the morning I will try it. I am going to do a search on google and try and learn tonight what the line you give me is doing. I sure don't want to come off lazy. I am just trying to learn. I ready have no objective about using nepomuk and strigi, I just stumbled across this problem and can't get it off my mind. I don't want to soud like a broken record on how new I am to linux. I am just learning even how to learn if that makes any sense. Again, thanks so much and I will post back when I run the line you give me.

"libsoprano_sesame2backend.so" is what is called "shared object". These files usually ends up with ".so" and they are usually loaded at runtime and on demand.

the "ldd" command goes through these files looking for other shared objects they  depends on.

when this file was loaded, it also pulled its dependency into memory and it expected somebody to provide "JNI_CreateJavaVM" symbol and nobody did and that is why it complained.

i suspect a missing java shared library is missing here

Here is what I got in return muungwana.

I ended up just re-installing beta and it now works.

[muungwana]

thats strange, the problem was caused by a bad install then? anyway, it doesnt matter now, does it?

there are newer packages in the repository you can update to. happy beta testing
