Kmymoney no help manual

Do you mean you receive this message:
"Could not launch KDE help center: could not find service khelpcenter"

If this is the case you can solve this by installing khelpcenter, type in a terminal:
sudo apt-get instal khelpcenter

I am a 71 year old newbie to Ubuntu and trying to learn Linux commands--what a task!

I installed kmymoney and had the same problem--i.e., no help center. I followed your answer as posted here:

"If this is the case you can solve this by installing khelpcenter, type in a terminal:
sudo apt-get instal khelpcenter"

The only problem I encountered was the terminal did not take that command--the word 'instal' requires two letters of 'l'. After that it worked great. I now have a help center for the program.

Thanks for the help!

This answer should also say that one needs to install htdig to build a searchable index. After installing it and clicking on Build Search Index, index creation *seems* to proceed fine ("htdig ended successfully" or similar), but then the search functionality doesn't really work. E.g. "transaction", "ledger", "account" return no results for kmoney (search scope: Applications); and searching man pages returns a very incomplete or even empty list (try with "ls", "tar", ...).

Scrolling up in the search index creation log, i now find lots of errors of the form /home/alvaro/.kde/share/apps/khelpcenter/index//kde_application_manuals.tmp/docbookparser: 9: Syntax error: Bad substitution
(if you don't scroll up, you just see the "finished successfully" message)

I'm running ubuntu feisty 7.04, not kubuntu.

Thanks for any help!
