CLI Companion

clicompanion fails to start with errors

Asked by Dave Frandin on 2010-11-01

I installed clicompanion via the ppa several weeks ago, and have found it to VERY useful. In the last several days however, the program fails to start with the following errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/clicompanion", line 625, in <module>
    companion = Companion()
  File "/usr/bin/clicompanion", line 535, in __init__
    self.update()
  File "/usr/bin/clicompanion", line 387, in update
    self.liststore.append([l[0],l[1],l[2]])
IndexError: list index out of range

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling manually the deb listed on the launchpad page.. I get the same error(s) with this install... I'm not a Python programmer, so I'm not sure whats going on here..

Thanks
Dave

Have you added commands manually to the .clicompanion file? This can sometimes happen if you add commands directly to that file and there is a blank line at the bottom of that file.

Yes I had added a few.. I didnt see a blank line at the bottom of the file, but just for fun, removed the .clicompanion file and tried to start the program... That fixed it... Thanks for the tip.. Great program too!!!!
