Hi guys !

Re: [SOLVED] Docky does not work anymore after last update

have you tried resetting docky's configuration by deleting or moving the folder with the appropriate configfiles?

Re: [SOLVED] Docky does not work anymore after last update

I may be a bit late, but I had the same problem. It seems to come from a faulty .desktop somewhere on your machine. Just try to remove parts of ~/.cache/docky/docky.desktop.???.cache (??? depends on your locale), until you find the right one.
My problem was due to /usr/share/applications/brasero-nautilus.desktop including this line :
NoDisplay=true;
instead of the correct :
NoDisplay=true

(I had quite a lot of trouble to find that one !)

You are not late, you are just in time, I tried to remove the semicolon after "true" before deleting one by one all the entries, and it worked right away! Thanks!

Re: [SOLVED] Docky does not work anymore after last update

This is an old thread, but thank you! I had a problem with docky crashing after upgrade and it was because there was an entry  in ~/.cache/docky/docky.desktop.???.cache for a program that did not exist anymore.
