Description Nate Graham 2020-11-28 16:00:13 UTC
For a could of weeks now, I'm getting a near-constant spam of the following output when I run KDE software in a terminal window:

kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar!
kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar!
kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar!
kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar!
kf.kio.slaves.http: Can't communicate with kded_kcookiejar!



Seems to happen in src/ioslaves/http/http.cpp:4567

I have no idea what this means or if it's significant or how to fix it though.

Journalctl is filled with this:

kcookiejar5 is a kded service that manages cookies in KDE programs. The source code is located at https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/tree/master/src/ioslaves/http/kcookiejar, the binary for example at the opensuse distribution in package kio, is designed as kded module and available as dbus service org.kde.kcookiejar5.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2022-10-01 16:58:32 UTC
Not a code issue; this is caused by the Plasma dev setup process which masks the system service, which apparently makes everyone unhappy. It will be fixed once we roll out the next-gen dev session infrastructure with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/1715
