Re: Unable to run Ring

Check if dring is not running:

ps aux | grep dring

Try to run as USER with debug mode:

/usr/lib/ring/dring -d

Then run Ring-Gnome from menu / icon.

PS
If you don't want especially using Ring - try QTox.

Re: Unable to run Ring

If you're the one that requested the ticket be reopened, it is not the same error.

Re: Unable to run Ring

So it would appear that the version of ring-daemon in Community needs the version of opendht in Community-Testing. File a bug report.

Re: Unable to run Ring

Hi,
I also installed Ring (pacman -S ring-gnome) today and the same shows up for me :

CRITICAL **: Error : dring is not available, make sure it is running

I filed a bug report but it seems to have been deleted. Sometimes the Arch community conduct is perplexing. Hopefully it just meant that the packagers are aware of the problem. I will wait for the version in Testing to hit the Community repo.

Re: Unable to run Ring

Oh, thanks for correction. For some reason I couldn't find it again, but it is there. I take back my silly-talk. Apologies.

I posted what I could in regards to the debuggning. It seems like the path for starting the daemon might be invalid...? If I should try or report anything else, don't hesitate to guide me.
