[SOLVED] Amarok startup error

Question

After installing Amarok (pacman -S amarok ), it give following error on startup.
Amarok could not find any collection plugins. It is possible that Amarok is installed under the wrong prefix, please fix your installation using:
$ cd /path/to/amarok/source-code/
$ su -c "make uninstall"
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` && su -c "make install"
$ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
$ amarok
More information can be found in the README file. For further assistance join us at #amarok on irc.freenode.net.
Any suggestion ???
Thanks in advance....

Answer 1

I had the same problem today after an update.
I I start "amrok --debug" I got :
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
unnamed app(1122): KUniqueApplication: Cannot find the D-Bus session server:  "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken."
unnamed app(1121): KUniqueApplication: Pipe closed unexpectedly.
Any new suggestion ?
Solution:
1) Remove AMAROK
2) Delete all reference in /home/user/.kde4 of amarok
3) Reinstall AMAROK
Now works!
