I've been finding this problem since a certain time I update my system in april.
When I click the icons in application dashboard or application launcher or even latte dock, the animation of starting a process just flash and nothing else happen.
I tried
$journalctl -f
to see what's happening and I got
May 08 14:50:27 hostname kernel: __vm_enough_memory: pid: 7515, comm: plasmashell, not enough memory for the allocation
I've checked some similar topic like Unable to open any apps from desktop - Plasma and Kde Plasma - desktop icons gone after last updates and so on. None that seem similar to my problem.
I've also tried ways in wiki. But to no avail.
How can I debug my DE? If it's necessary, I can post my dmesg.
Thank you.

What is the output of free -h ?
The error message seems to indicate a lack of available memory,

The first link you posted definitely goes into the direction that happened with the glibc bump, did you follow the second reply to remove/rename ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc ?

What is the output of free -h ?
The error message seems to indicate a lack of available memory,

Also, I can start process by terminal.

yes I've tried rename the config file.
I even renamed all the configs of plasma in ~/.config

yes I've tried rename the config file.
Inside or outside the plasma session?
(Log out, head to a different VT, log in on the console, remove the config, return to the VT w/ the DM and log back into plasma)
Otherwise try the behavior w/ a fresh user account - if it works there, we know it's your (plasmas) config.
Can you run programs by other means?

Sorry for not responding so long. I've been busy with someting else.
Yes I renamed the configs in gnome. Due to the issue with plasma, I recently using gnome as the alternative. And I ensured the plasma is in initial state (At least it looks like), tried reappear the bug and it did appear.
And yes I can run programs through yakuake(It runs initially in the session), or any other terms I think.
I would try a fresh user account after this reply
