I have the same problem. But I also tried this quick fix and it does not work for me either.
When I try this command in a terminal : ke...@compaq-laptop:~$ dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.ubuntu.sso /credentials com.ubuntu.sso.ApplicationCredentials.login_to_get_credentials "string:Ubuntu One" "string:Workaround for LP:657850" int64:0 method return sender=:1.123 -> dest=:1.188 reply_serial=2 The terminal where ubuntuone-preferences was launched printed : ERROR:dbus.connection:Exception in handler for D-Bus signal: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/dbus/connection.py", line 214, in maybe_handle_message self._handler(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/bin/ubuntuone-preferences", line 1051, in got_newcredentials self.present() File "/usr/bin/ubuntuone-preferences", line 1031, in present self.dialog.connect_desktopcouch_exclusion() File "/usr/bin/ubuntuone-preferences", line 708, in connect_desktopcouch_exclusion self.dcouch = dcouch.ReplicationExclusion() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/desktopcouch/replication_services/ubuntuone.py", line 124, in __init__ ctx=ctx) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/desktopcouch/records/server.py", line 56, in __init__ server_class=server_class, oauth_tokens=oauth_tokens, ctx=ctx) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/desktopcouch/records/server_base.py", line 155, in __init__ self._reconnect() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/desktopcouch/records/server.py", line 64, in _reconnect super(CouchDatabase, self)._reconnect(uri=uri) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/desktopcouch/records/server_base.py", line 187, in _reconnect if self._database_name not in self._server: File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/couchdb/client.py", line 124, in __contains__ self.resource.head(validate_dbname(name)) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/couchdb/client.py", line 981, in head return self._request('HEAD', path, headers=headers, **params) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/couchdb/client.py", line 1035, in _request raise ServerError((status_code, error)) ServerError: (500, '') -- Ubuntu One Preferences applet doesn't display info properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/657850 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
