Amarok1 inside KDE "cannot connect to X server"

KDE, all apps updated. I installed Amarok2 and then removed using pacman. Now I want Amarok 1.4x so when I install "amarok1" from packer, everything seemed to go fine.
From the GUI, when I search amarok from "find files/folders" and the click on amarok in /opt/kde/bin I get
"Amarok cannot be started! This may be because the amarokapp binary is not in your PATH. Try locating and running amarok from a terminal."
When I launch
# /opt/kde/bin/amarokapp
I get
amarokapp: cannot connect to X server
Ideas?

Install xdm on this machine or use the display of other machine.
If you have other machine (say xx.xx.xx.xx) with xdm then at that machine give command to allow 192.168.0.1 to use its diplay manager by typing
xhost +192.168.0.1
Then go to your original machine and set display to use the display of machine with xdm as
export DISPLAY=xx.xx.xx.xx:0
You can also try cygwin to get an instance of a display manager.

  • System Update -- Cannot connect to proxy server - SOLVED

    I'm on a ThinkPad T61 running Windows Vista.  When I try to download from System Update, I always get the error message "Cannot connect to proxy server."
    I have tried connecting to the Internet directly via Ethernet rather than through a wireless router--it doesn't make any difference.
    I have also uninstalled System Update and then installed the version I downloaded from lenovo.com--same result.
    System Update is an exception in Windows Firewall, and I have even tried running System Update with Firewall disabled--ditto.
    Can someone please help me?

    I have discovered one other potential cause of this behaviour.
    If your computer is attached to a Domain, ensure you are connected to the Domain using a profile that has administrator rights when attempting these upgrades.
    I was using a local profile with administrative rights, on a network connection that was outside of the corporate LAN, and I was getting the "Cannot connect to proxy server" error.
    When I connected to our Corporate LAN and logged on to the machine with an administrative profile, the Proxy Server error went away, and I was then able to connect and download my required updates.
    Just an FYI if you are doing this inside a large, firewalled LAN running from Active Directory.

  • TV System Update hangs at 21% with message "Cannot connect to proxy server"

    Hi,
    just installed TVSU (latest version) on my Thinkpad T40 (with WinXP Pro SP3, German). Installs fine, runs perfect after reboot, recognises the correct model, initiates search for updates and then stops at 21% whilst  displaying
    "Downloading Packet Information: Lenovo Help Center (1 of 1)".
    A few seconds later the error message
    "Cannot connect to Proxy Server"
    comes up with an OK-Box. Clicking OK terminates the entire update process, however TVSU continues to run properly and the process can be restarted with the identical result. This happens with Kaspersky Firewall on and off, no difference. Even rebooting the system w/o firewall and virus protection and starting afresh does not help either. Tried perhaps 15 times over the last 4 hours with same results. I assume that the error message refers to a proxy at Lenovo since in my local environment there is no proxy involved. The system is known to be free of viruses (clean installation yesterday and virus checked this morning).
    Note:
    The display/error message above were translated from German into English so the corresponding original English displays/messages may look slightly different.
    Any ideas?
    Regards from Germany...

  • Sharepoint list dataheet view error "Cannot connect to the server at this time. You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available"

    I have a List which is having around 14000 items in it.while opening that list in datasheet view it is giving error .
    Below is a summary of the issue:
    After selecting datasheet view beow error occurs:
        "Cannot connect to the server at this time.  You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available."
        "Unable to retrieve all data."
        The item counts displays say 100 out of 14000 items.
    Exporting List to excel is giving only 2000 records out of 14000 records.
    Other Observations   -  
    This is happening to only one list on the site .There are other lists in the site whose no. of records is equal to 8000 to 9000.They are working absolutely fine without any error.
    Also, If I am saving this list as a template and creating another list with it ,then it is working absolutely fine with 14000 records,so the issue does not seem to be related with no. of records as the template list is working fine.
    I have checked the Alternate access mapping setting ,its fine.
    It should not be related to lookup,datefield or any other column as the list created from it template is working fine with all these columns.
    I checked below links also ,but doesn't seem to work in my case.

    I have spent two days to resolve this issue. Microsoft has released two KBs with reference to this issue...but are not appearing in search results at the top.
    I am sharing my finding.
    1. First install the
    KB2552989 (Hopefully you might have already installed it. The KB detetcts it and informs the user.)
    2. Then update registry by adding new key for data fetch timeout as mentioned inKB2553007
    These two steps resolved the issue in our environment. Hope it might help others as well.

  • The restor pocess did not succeed because your computer cannot connect to the server - Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials Experience

    Hi all
    I've been running Windows Server 2012 R2 with the Essentials Experience in test for a Windows 8.1 client environment, on an HP ProLiant MicroServer N54L. Overall I've found the Essential Experience set-up over WHS2011 and WHSv1 okay; still looking to extract
    any real value over the former versions.
    This box has been up and running for a few months now, with client backups of a Win 8.1 box scheduled and running successfully every day. However when trying to conduct any file restores from the backups, to the client, I receive an error dialog once I go
    through motions from the Dashboard:
    On the 'Devices' tab, right-click the appropriate client and select 'Restore files or folders for the computer'
    'Restore Files of Folders' dialog pops up, asking me to 'Choose a backup' from the list of all the backups that have run
    Select any one in the list - have tried numerous backups; automatic, manual, etc. same result every time
    Brings up the dialog to 'Choose a volume', choose either C: or D: partitions of the same fixed drive - again, no difference which one I choose, the outcome is the same
    'Opening the volume' dialog starts, with progress bar, runs to about 4% complete the pops up the dialog 'The restore process did not succeed'. Full error in the dialog, "The restore process did not succeed because your computer cannot connect to the
    server. Make sure that the computer is connected to the networkm and then try again
    If my computer cannot connect to the server - how can I get that far? How can I open the dashboard, select a client, select from a list of backups, select a volume to restore, etc. What is going on here?

    Hi,
    Please check if a "host" entry for the server is added to the client. For more detailed information, please refer to the threads below:

  • Error message received submitting form via email - "Acrobat cannot connect to the server"

    Some of my users are unable to submit form data.  The forms are set up to be submitted via email and only a few of the users are effected.  They have installed the latest versions of both Acrobat and Adobe Reader.
    "Acrobat cannot connect to the server, but will automatically submit your form once the server is online.  You can check tracker for the status of this submission."
    "You have already submitted the data on this form and it is waiting to be sent.  Further changes are not allowed until the prior data is sent."
    I know that this question has been asked before, but there has not been a response.  This is very frustrating.
    Thanks for any help or sugesstions.

    I have this exact same error, but also have not yet found a workaround.
    Only sporatic users get the error, and I've been unable to duplicate it from my machine.  I am on Adobe Reader v 10.1.2.
    Actually I can get around the error if I were to downgrade to Adobe v9, but that is a bandaid fix - not really a secure answer.

  • I updated to mountain lion and now mail cannot connect to my server

    I updated to mountain lion and now mail cannot connect to my server.  It says check your user name and password are correct.  Well they are, and were.  Nothing has changed except the mac OS. 
    Has anyone else suffered this and knows a way around it?  Too annoying to log into my mail every 15mins via a web page anymore.
    Efforts tried to resolve this so far:
    retyped user name and password, removed account and created a new account, restarted computer, software update, searched forums.  so far all have proved unsuccessful.
    I have also written to my mail provider and am waiting for feed back from them, but if anyone has any advice it would be gratefully received.
    Many thanks,
    Mike

    Many users upgrading to Mountain Lion have run into this problem, myself included.  You likely have corrupted settings for your  "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)" for each of the failed Accounts.  Open Mail>go to Mail's Preferences>Accounts>select an Account in the left column to work on>then set up your Outgoing Mail Server which will INCLUDE resetting up your Password, as its asking you to.  Click on "SMTP Outgoing Mail Server" near the bottom of the Accounts window while your mail account is highlighted in the left hand column.  When you click on SMTP... you will see a drop down box icon offered at the right side of the line.  Click it and then select at the bottom of the the list "Edit SMTP Mail Server".  Fill in the required settings for your ISP mail account using their recommended settings.

  • Report cannot connect to OID server

    When I try test Report on Oracle Applaication

    then get error message
    REP-50200: Cannot connect to OID server.
    URL http://hercules.dati.lv:7785/reports/rwservlet/
    works fine.
    Connect with sqlplus portal/sys_new904 to Infrasructure is ok also.
    What a problem may be ?
    We can't run any reports on iAS :(
    We have iAS 10g on Solaris 8.
    Thanks a lot,
    Pavel.

    Hi,
    let me start asking teh question if you need reports to conenct to OID. This is required when you want to authenticate users via SSO or when you use Reports access control security to protect Reports Servers and Reports definition files.
    If the answer two both are NO, try
    SINGLESIGNON=NO in rwservlet.properties located in ApplicationServerHome\reports\conf
    and remove the elements
    <security id="rwSec" class="oracle.reports.server.RWSecurity">
    <!--property name="securityUserid" value="%PORTAL_DB_USERNAME%/%PORTAL_DB_PASSWORD%@%PORTAL_DB_TNSNAME%" confidential="yes" encrypted="no"/-->
    <property name="oidEntity" ...
    </security>
    from the <Reports Srever name>.conf file
    Restart the application server and you should be fine. I don't know why Reports Srever can't connect to OID, did you try and connect to DAS http://server:port/oiddas
    If this fails too, then possibly the problem occured when configuring the OID access during the midtier installation

  • BPC Excel: The system cannot connect to the server. There might be network

    Hi Guys,
    I get the following error when i try to connect to BPC Excel: The system cannot connect to the server. There might be network or security issue.
    This only happen on clients machines, I have installed the client tools on the server and tested, i can connect to Excel but not on the machine. My MS office version is the same as the one on the server. BPC is ver 5.04
    Has anyone experienced the same problem.
    your help will be greatly appreciated.

    Let me summarize your issue to see if I may help.  If I cannot, then you will need to work with SAP Support on the connection problem.
    - You have a single or multi-server setup?
    - Installed using BPC 5.1 SP3, (or 5.0.502) correct?
    - You can enter the BPC on the server, both via BPC Excel and BPC Admin?
    - When you initiate BPC Admin on your client, so can connect to the Server and perform Admin operations?
    - When you initiate BPC for Excel, and walk through the connection wizard, you cannot connect to the server?
    - When you are in the Connection Wizard, are you using a path or a Server designation?
    - Is the system on a single domain?
    - When you added users to the Admin Security profile, they were selected from a DOMAIN?
    - You have processed security and assigned ALL TASKS currently and processed the MEMBER ACCESS profiles, yes?
    After all of this, have you uninstalled 1 BPC client, cleared the ProgramFiles/BPC folder, and deleted the local stored BPC information?  If you haven't, just for simplification, I would attempt this process.
    You also hae read all the SAP Support Notes regarding using Excel2007 with BPC and the issues you may experience?
    Please let me know and maybe we can help.

  • InitCatalog:Cannot connect to the server

    Hello,
    We have installed BPC 7.0 in 2-server architecture.
    First server is VM - Windows 2003 32 bit, it contains
    - BPC
    - Reporting Services
    - Integration Services
    Second server is physical. Windows 2003 64 bit, it contains
    - SQL Server 2005
    - OLAP Server 2005
    We have installed also a separate client: admin and office tools.
    During opening Excel 2007 (provider Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 is installed on first server) we got error:
    InitCatalog:Cannot connect to the server 'XXXXX'. The server is either not started or too busy.
    After clicking the OK button in the error message, I was further notified that Account dimension member cannot be downloaded and so on.
    It looks like similar problem as in this thread: InitCatalog:Cannot connect to the server 'XXXXX'.
    But it wasn;t solved.
    We got also the same error during processing cubes/dimensions from BPC Administrator.
    Can anybody help us solving this problem?
    Thanks in advance.
