Cannot get e-mail via thunderbird after upgrade.

Re-install ineffective.

It would be helpful if everyone knew what else got upgraded.

Hopefully this list provides data helpful in solving the problem.

I don't see anything in that list that should have an effect on thunderbird. Maybe someone that knows more than I has an idea.

lilsirecho · 2009-02-08 16:14:15

Removed thunderbird from /var/cache/pacman/pkg.

Entered

pacman -R thunderbird

Entered

pacman -S thunderbird

The thunderbird icon is not present nor is it shown in kde menu.

System x86-64.

Added Thunderbird to KDE menu but it still does not start up when selected. No e-mail.

RaisedFist · 2009-02-09 16:52:11

try to start it from a terminal and paste the output here.

wonder · 2009-02-09 16:59:57

maybe the configuration of the accound isn't good . did you think that?

lilsirecho · 2009-02-09 17:11:08

Since it doesn't start-up, no config can be made...

It was working until the new upgrades as posted.

Mr Green · 2009-02-09 18:41:57

in a terminal type thunderbird and post output....

lilsirecho · 2009-02-09 21:57:08

Mr Green:

Very nice to hear from you! Yes, it brings up thunderbird.

Just before I logged in to this post, I used lost and found to find thunderbird. Why it became lost is an unknown.

I now have it on desktop icon for selection at large.

Thanks a bunch,OC!
