I use cqrlog with Ubuntu 13.04, it worked fine until last update to 1.6.0. Now I get a message "Error during connection to database: Server connect failed." I no longer see any of my databases. What can be wrong?

Server connect failed after upgrade to 1.6.0
Hi Marek,
are you using cqrlog and database on local machine? Do you have Save log data to local machine checked?
It could help, if you delete ~/.config/cqrlog/cqrlog_log.cfg file. ~ means your home directory.

Yes, I use the cqrlog on a local machine and this option is selected, nothing changed during upgrade. I removed the config file but it didn't help.

Hi Mark and Emanuel,
could you run cqrlog from command line, please?
cqrlog --debug=2 > debug.log
and please send me the debug.log file. Thanks a lot!

Hi Petr!
I have the same problem with 1.6.0 starting with local database.
The only way to start it is (manually) changing of parameter SaveToLocal (file cqrlog_login.cfg, section Login) to '0'. After that I have to check 'Save to local' during starting and then cqrlog starts local mysql server.
The parameter was set to '1' that time.
Next time cqrlog "trying" to start a local database (is checked) but mysql server is not started. That's a problem, I believe.
Anyway, a new version is more stable. With slow internet connection especially.

I was able to recover with the following procedure:
1. rename config folder:
mv ~/.config/cqrlog ~/.config/cqrlog.copy
2. start cqrlog and let it reinitialize config folder
3. create as many empty databases as you had before - in my case two databases
4. quit cqrlog
5. remove folders created for databases
rm -rf ~/.config/cqrlog/database/cqrlog001
rm -rf ~/.config/cqrlog/database/cqrlog002
...
6. copy old corresponding folders
cp -r ~/.config/cqrlog.copy/database/cqrlog001 ~/.config/cqrlog/database/cqrlog001
cp -r ~/.config/cqrlog.copy/database/cqrlog002 ~/.config/cqrlog/database/cqrlog002
...
7. copy old config file
cp ~/.config/cqrlog.copy/cqrlog.cfg ~/.config/cqrlog/cqrlog.cfg
That's it.
Worked for me and I don't see any suspicious logs and all my contacts are in place so I believe databases are consistent. You have to just rename databases back to what you had before. There's no guarantee though, so you'd better retain old config folder.
