Dear Maintainer,
I cannot get thunderbird to start on a fairly newly instaled debian testing
laptop.
On a newly booted computer:
rene $ killall -1 thunderbird
thunderbird: no process found
rene $ killall -1 icedove
icedove: no process found
rene $ rm -r .thunderbird
rene $ thunderbird
just gives me a dialog with the message:
"Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you
must first close the existing Thunderbird process, or restart your system."
I have tried using an old profile, a new profile, safe mode, removing
.thunderbird and .icedove totally, ... to no avail.
Thunderbird won't start. I have no idea what to do next, and google doesn't
help much.
Starting Thunderbird with the option '--debug' gives at least some more
information if something is already going wrong before Thunderbird will
be called itself.
No information printed, except:
nuno@host:~$ thunderbird --debug
[calBackendLoader] Using Thunderbird's builtin libical backend
Warning: unrecognized command line flag -debug
I have tried packages from stable, testing and experimental, all the same.
-- System Information:
...
Versions of packages thunderbird suggests:
ii apparmor 2.11.1-3
pn fonts-lyx <none>
ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.15.2-2
You have installed apparmor. Have you tried to disable the AppArmor
profile for Thunderbird and check for the further existence of the issue?
$ sudo aa-disable /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.thunderbird
That does the trick.. Thunderbird now starts ok.
Also I suspect then some messages about denied access by apparmor.
$ sudo journalctl -kaf --no-hostname | grep -w 'apparmor="DENIED"'
No output here. Thanks,
Nuno.
