Description Jeppe Bundsgaard 2015-10-06 21:07:42 UTC

Kwalletmanager won't start - nothing happens in the GUI. When running from CLI I get the output below.
In the process list I can see that kwalletd is a zombie.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Kubuntu
2. Run Kwalletmanager
3.

Actual Results:  
I get this output:

jeppe@jeppe-zenbook:~$ kwalletmanager

Same here.  I'm using fedora 23 kde spin.  I enable it in system settings.  Go to kmail, try to set uo an account and have kwallet save passwords, but it says kwallet has been disabled.  Kwallet manager opens, but it won't  change any settingsKwalletd is listed as a zombie in the system monitor.  If I try to kill it, it won't go away.  If I try to start it, I get this message:
Lacking a socket, pipe: 0, env:0
kwalletd(10393): Communication problem with  "kwalletd" , it probably crashed. 
Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Message recipient disconnected from message bus without replying" "
