aMule on Mageia 6 crashes

[R_Head]

aMule runs perfectly on Megeia 6 until few months back. The application seems to crash and I have installed the version that is on the official repositories. Removed and Reinstalled via MCC without any success.

Any idea on what is happening?

What does

Code: Select all

sudo fuser -v 4711/tcp

say?

It should indicate that it is used by aMule - if you get a blank then that port is not used for amule.

In that case check if the dameon is running:

Code: Select all

systemctl status amuled

and

Code: Select all

systemctl status amuleweb

You could try to remove ~/.aMule to reset all your old data and install amule again and start from scratch.

You should have two config files:

Code: Select all

/var/lib/amule/.aMule/amule.conf

for the amule daemon (amuled) and

Code: Select all

/var/lib/amule/.aMule/remote.conf


for amuleweb

You can delete those too before a fresh install or check out those configurations if you like to dive deep into it.

Code: Select all

[USER]$ fuser -v 4711/tcp
[USER]$ systemctl status amuled
Failed to dump process list, ignoring: Unit amuled.service not found.
amuled.service
   Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
   Active: inactive (dead)
[USER]$ systemctl status amuleweb

amuleweb.service

   Active: inactive (dead)

Strange... The aMule directory is gone. Nothing about aMule on /var/lib/

Hmm I am not sure about Mageia but those are the places in Manjaro.
It looks like amuled is running on port 4711 so that part seems ok.

The rest looks like amule is not installed as a daemon (which is strange).

What happens when you run amule in a terminal?

[R_Head]

Never done it that way. There was an update along with a Kernel update, going to reboot and atempt another install. Removed aMule using the MCC.

Yeah might work but I still would try to remove old config files ....if you can find them...
