Thanks for the bug report, IdleOne, and for the update, 3vi1. Thanks also to those who marked this bug as affecting them.

IdleOne, are you still experiencing this problem?

I'm able to run either the Ubuntu Lernid, or the one from the Lernid PPA just fine today after installing Oneiric from the 7/21 daily cd (written to usb stick) with the 7/23 updates installed. It seems appropriate to ask the question how are the failing systems different from the working ones?

Therefore, for all still experiencing this problem:

1. What version of the following packages are installed (since the development process can leave some things behind):
python-desktopcouch-records, desktopcouch, python-desktopcouch-application, couchdb-bin, python-couchdb?

Mine are:
python-desktopcouch-records 1.0.7-0ubuntu2
desktopcouch (same)
python-desktopcouch-application (same)
couchdb-bin 1.0.1-0ubuntu16
python-couchdb 0.8-0ubuntu1

2. Can you read your preferences using your browser?
e.g.
firefox ~/.local/share/desktop-couch/couchdb.html

After a pause and an automatic redirect you should be able to choose "lernid", and then pick the item with the random looking name and see your lernid preferences.

3. Is yours a fresh install or an upgrade from natty or before?

Thanks for your help in tracking this down.
