Bug ID: 488396 Summary: konsole --tabs-from-file sometimes fails to open a window Classification: Applications Product: konsole Version: 24.02.2 Platform: Solus OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: konsole-de...@kde.org Reporter: kde...@tlcnet.info Target Milestone: --- After creating and testing a couple of tab configuration files, Konsole would no longer open a window with --tabs-from-file STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a simple tab configuration file with just one line title: Tab1;; command: /usr/bin/top 2. Attempt to launch Konsole with the file using: konsole --hold --tabs-from-file konsole_layouts/test1 OBSERVED RESULT A window of the right size appears for a split second and immediately disappears EXPECTED RESULT A new window opens with the tab specified in the config file SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Solus 4.5 KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.1 Kernel Version: 6.8.11-292.current (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I'm happy to help troubleshoot the problem. If necessary, please let me know what I can do to provide more information. During my testing, at first the feature worked. At some point, perhaps due to a command in a tab Konsole didn't like? --tabs-from-file stopped opening a new window. Closing all editors that had the config files opened allowed it to work again, but it stopped working again after additional testing. I made sure only one konsole process was running after pressing Ctrl-C to get rid of the ghost window I rebooted, but that didn't change anything There are no lines written to the system log at the time of the window failing to open This is the only output in terminal (from what I've read, the error isn't really related) Then, I launched with a different profile that had this and it was successful title: SysAdminNotes ;; workdir: ~/Nextcloud/Notes/SysAdmin ;; profile: Sand title: htpc ;; command: ssh htpc I don't know if it was opening a very different tabs config or some timeout happened in the background that allowed it to work again. ❯ konsole --tabs-from-file konsole_layouts/test1 Qt: Session management error: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported There is no crash, the process list shows the command still running ❯ pgrep -fla konsole 3379 /usr/bin/konsole 10770 konsole --tabs-from-file konsole_layouts/test1 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
