Clementine will not launch

  • 772

I am running Ubuntu 12.04 and clementine would not launch. I removed it, downloaded the most recent version, 1.1.1, and reinstalled it. It still does not launch. Please help. Thanks.

Here is the output from launching Clementine from the terminal:

    • Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T).

    • Run the following command:

      rm -rf ~/.config/Clementine

      This will delete the configuration files of Clementine, which might have some corrupt or inappropriate content. Next time you launch it, clementine would reconfigure itself and would probably work properly.

    • Run clementine to check.
