[arch-general] offlineimap went crazy
Everything worked fine until I changed the .offlineimaprc to fetch mails from multiple accounts. Here is my .offlineimaprc : http://pastie.org/private/mlskz0tkpf6jgytj9d5q I comment out some lines because I thought they cause the problem. But now I see they don't. And this is what's happening after I run offlineimap in console : http://pastie.org/private/uaedovqzmbglgzlthnj4zg It works for a while and then crashing. What can be a problem then? Any suggestion? My .muttrc : http://pastie.org/private/aeke8sfcezwzfq0i1yrmg Google didn't help me. I tried. Thanks for all replies in advance! -- Best, Jozsef Kurucuty | Web & Graphic Designer +971 50 6783113 | jozefk@gmx.com

I use offlineimap with multiple accounts and it's working fine here. my offlineimaprc is a bit simpler than yours though[1], you're welcome to take/adjust it and see if there are any improvements. Supporting mutt and msmtp configs are in the same directory. [1] http://pbrisbin.com:8080/dotfiles/offlineimaprc -- patrick brisbin

Thanks for reply Patrick! But I can't open your link. Even last time you post your script for checking if offlineimap is running with cron. I was not able to open it :( Could you, please, post them all somewhere else? I think you were right about buggy built-in interval-resync functionality. I even think that is why it's crashing. Now I'm trying with crontab but I can't see how it works except if I keep receiving emails in my inbox. And what was that script you have for checking if offlineimap is running? How can I use it? Where to place it and how to run it? Hope it's not too many questions :) Thanks. -- Best, Jozsef Kurucity | Web & Graphic Designer +971 50 6783113 | jozefk@gmx.com

boo, i wonder why.

cron should log somewhere in /var/log that it's running the command you've placed in crontab and whether it completes successfully or not, i use fcron so i don't remember the details. You can also pass options to offlineimap to tell it to keep a log of itself and where.
And what was that script you have for checking if offlineimap is running? How can I use it? Where to place it and how to run it?
I've included it in the paste good luck. -- patrick brisbin

I see only your .offlineimaprc in pastie. Am I missing something or you forgot to paste your script?

Thank you for checking, I sent a few 'does this link work for you' IMs immediately after that first message. Jozsef, Maybe you're confused because pastie lets you paste multiple things into one paste by separating them with '## Some Heading'? I've checked the link 3 times, "offlineimaprc", "mailrun", and "cron..." are the three headings I used in that paste, and it looks fine from here. -- patrick brisbin

I tried to send this message from Thunderbird but it didn't go through. Maybe because of HTML: " OK I see the rest of the pastie files. Thanks. Will try that. pbrisbin.com still not working here. I'm in Dubai, UAE :) Cron is running offlineimap but I'm not getting the message. I opened Thunderbird and I see I have some mails but didn't get them in Mutt. Need to try different things. Also, I run pacman -Syu in the meantime :) Changed .offlineimaprc a couple of times on the fly :)) But I guess everything will work fine after restart haha If not I'll go crazy together with my Offlineimap. " Now I changed my .offlineimaprc and made it more simple. Something alike Patrick's. Seems it's wokring now. Finally. Made the script as well and add it to cron. Will try to see how it's work. Thanks for all replies! Will let you know if there is something wrong. -- Best, Jozsef Kurucity | Web & Graphic Designer +971 50 6783113 | jozefk@gmx.com

you can ignore these, cron's just trying to mail you the output and finding that sendmail's not set up for it.

Hello, I am searching for an audio cd ripper for my Arch Linux box and have some questions about that. 1.) K3B fails to encode to mp3 (lame) on my computer maybe because of being an alpha version. Encoding to ogg works fine. Can anyone confirm this behaviour? 2.) If I use soundKonverter (KDE 3 version) from the repos, nothing happend by starting the progress by clicking the button. Did I forget anything to configure? Thank you for your help. Greetings Lars Tennstedt

Well, I can recommend rubyripper. It worked well last time I tried it (a few months ago) and afaik it's the best application we have on linux for secure ripping.

Can't help with that part, haven't used either in quite some time but afair soundkonverter used to work quite well. If you do rip and convert later make sure to rip to wav, don't convert from vorbis to mp3. Philipp

There is an awesome and easy converter in KDE (already in KDE3), but it's invisible since KDE4 (they forgot to add a UI that appears when you insert a CD). Fire up konqueror or dolphin, enter "audiocd:/" into the URL field and feel the love.

You can adjust the settings for encoding as well as querys for automatic track tagging in the "Advanced" tab in systemsettings under the category "Audio CD" and "CDDB Retrieval". Cheers, Fabian

Yes - however, the default settings are quite good, I don't think I ever changed something here.
Thanks for your comments. I tried RubyRipper and it fits my needs. But my girl friend needs something that is easier to configure. I mean she is not so good in lame's command line options. I have much trouble using the audio cd kio plugin. Ich noticed there are some (many) audio cds that are not recognized properly by konqueror or dolphin. Maybe they are multi data discs or something like that or I missed something. I noticed improvement since the release of KDE 4.3. Can anybody help? Thanks again. Lars Thomas Bächler wrote:

Sorry, I had an idiot moment there. Blame too little sleep and too little coffee :-). Obviously I meant abcde.

I've always use grip (with lame) to do cd rips and it's always worked like a charm. Maybe you want to give it a try? HTH, DR
