    Hi. I have Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.

    I have a problem with this applet. When I installed it, turned on configuration, configured and finally turned on gmail-notifier, it was working.

    But when I restarted computer and then tried turn on gmail-notifier, program didn’t start. I tried reinstall application and problem is the same. From the beginning it works and after rebot it doesn’t start.

    File “/usr/bin/gmail-notifier-settings.py”, line 78, in loadConfigFile

    File “/usr/lib/python2.6/stat.py”, line 50, in S_ISREG
    return S_IFMT(mode) == S_IFREG
    RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded”

    Logs from command “gmail-notifier.py”
    “** Message: secret service operation failed: Cannot get secret of a locked object
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File “/usr/bin/gmail-notifier.py”, line 181, in
    PASSWORD = gkey.getPassword()
    File “/usr/bin/gmail-notifier.py”, line 160, in getPassword
    secret = gnomekeyring.item_get_info_sync(self.keyring, auth_token).get_secret()
    gnomekeyring.IOError”

    When I delete the file “/home/USER/.config/gmail-notifier/settings.conf”, then I can turned on gmail-notifier-settings.py and gmail-notifier.py without any problem.

    Why it doesn’t work correctly? How can I repair it?

    Please answer and thank you in advance.

      Do you have GDM setup to automatically log on to your user?

    Yes, I have set automatically log on. I think it is something with gnome keyring. I have the same password to default keyring as user password. I also changed password to blank but program still didn’t work.

    If I get into seahorse (gnome keyring) and unlock default keyring, program is working. But this is inconvenient to always firstly unlock keyring and then start program.

    PS. Sorry for my english.
