Bug ID: 412665
Summary: kdeconnect-cli cannot start kdeconnectd.exe on Windows
in Chinese
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: qw2...@outlook.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
With latest kdeconnect nightly on Windows (in Chinese), starting
kdeconnect-indicator.exe will not start kdeconnectd.exe, leaving the program
nonfunctional.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install kdeconnect from
https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/kdeconnect-kde_Nightly_win64/
2. Launch kdeconnect-indicator.exe
OBSERVED RESULT
kdeconnect-indicator.exe hangs with no tray icon. kdeconnectd.exe is not
running.
EXPECTED RESULT
kdeconnectd.exe is running and kdeconnect-indicator can be used.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 10 1903 18362.10022 zh-CN
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0
Qt Version: 5.13.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Process Monitor showed that kdeconnectd.exe and dbus-daemon.exe were started
but dbus-daemon immediately crashed. If `dbus-daemon --session` is started
manually, launching kdeconnect-indicator will crash dbus-daemon with the
following message:
> dbus-daemon[7444]: info: [session pid=7444
> sid=S-1-5-21-**********-**********-**********-1001] Activating service
> name='org.kde.kdeconnect' requested by ':1.0' (pid=8172 comm=""
> sid="S-1-5-21-**********-**********-**********-1001")
> dbus-daemon[7444]: info: [session pid=7444
> sid=S-1-5-21-**********-**********-**********-1001] Activated service >
> 'org.kde.kdeconnect' failed: Failed to execute program org.kde.kdeconnect:
> 系统找不到指定的文件。
> dbus-daemon[7444]: error: arguments to dbus_message_iter_append_basic() were
> incorrect, assertion "_dbus_check_is_valid_utf8 (*string_p)" failed in file
> C:\_\db7b4da\dbus-1.12.12\dbus\dbus-message.c line 2754.
> This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.
>From the 2nd line, it was trying to start the 'org.kde.kdeconnect' service but
failed with "file not found" message. The message was in the Chinese encoding
and not valid UTF-8, which triggered the assertion in the 3rd line and crashed
the daemon.
Suggested fix: comment out the `Exec=` line in
bin/data/dbus-1/services/org.kde.kdeconnect.service. This avoids the error and
allows kdeconnectd to run.
