Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
On the notes conversion from iPhone format.
Never mind. I found the error. :-/ Don't ask :-) |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Is anyone getting the dreaded "json_get_note_list() returned NULL" when syncing at the moment?
I'm using 0.6.3.31 -I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Also tried re-authenticating... |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Just tried, sync works fine here. If you start conboy from the terminal and send me the output I might find the problem.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Hi Conny, thanks for looking into this. It get:
BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso30+0m5) built-in shell (ash) Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands. ~ $ conboy Starting conboy, Version 0.6.3.31 HILDON INIT INFO: Looking for plugins in: /usr/lib/conboy INFO: Loading plugin description: /usr/lib/conboy/conboy_storage_xml.plugin INFO: Loading library: /usr/lib/conboy/libstoragexml.la INFO: Loading 128 notes took 471343l micro seconds INFO: Accelerometers enabled INFO: DBus said orientation is: landscape INFO: Accelerometers disabled I have also tried: $ gconftool -g /apps/maemo/conboy/last_sync_rev -1 ~ $ gconftool -g /apps/maemo/conboy/last_sync_time 0 ~ $ gconftool -u /apps/maemo/conboy/last_sync_rev ~ $ gconftool -u /apps/maemo/conboy/last_sync_time ~ $ gconftool -g /apps/maemo/conboy/last_sync_rev No value set for `/apps/maemo/conboy/last_sync_rev' ~ $ gconftool -g /apps/maemo/conboy/last_sync_time No value set for `/apps/maemo/conboy/last_sync_time' and then re-authenticating but I still get the same error. UbuntuOne was down for me for notes for a while maybe one or two weeks ago for a couple of weeks. Could it be anything to do with this? |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
That message is usually a result of U1 not responding as expected. It could be that they really send you something invalid, or that Conboy simply has wrong expectations :)
Anyways, I wasn't completely clear. What I would need is the console output that you get during a sync. Not the output of Conboy starting up. Resetting the gconf keys is (should be) done whenever you reauthenticate, so usually it shouldn't be necessary. Still, good that you tried already :) |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Ah, sorry, here is the end of the message in terminal (I get a very verbose output when syncing which appears to contain all my notes -terminal won't let me scroll far enough upwards to see what appears at the top of the notes in the message).
"create-date" : "2010-05-22T13:27:14.0000000+01:00" } ] } &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Request: https://one.ubuntu.com/notes/api/1.0/op/ ERROR: The sever rejected a note, because the UUID was already used in the past.

Would it be easiest to delete all the notes in Conboy on my phone and then resync so I get them all back from the server? -If so, how would I do this? Please let me know if you would like me to do any more tests first... I'm using Ubuntu One with Tomboy on a Linux system and on a Windows system by the way. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
What you posted is exactly what I needed. The problem is indeed Ubuntu One. I filed a bug about this long time ago, but it's still not fixed:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone...rs/+bug/591122 You could indeed pull all notes from U1 to your phone again, at least if you don't have any important unsynced notes on your phone. If it's ok to loose all unsynced notes from you phone, do the following:
That should download all U1 notes to you phone and sync should work again. Let me know if that worked for you. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Thanks Conny, that all worked perfectly and it's syncing fine now :-)
It's amazing just how much I've come to rely on conboy. I was feeling very lost without my notes around with me everywhere! Thanks for your help, I really, really appreciate it. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
I'm happy to hear that it worked for you :)

Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Hi,
I just updated pr 1.3, now i'm unable to restore conboy from the backup. Message is that cannot install conboy liboauth0 is missing. Where to find this package and how to install it ? Application manager cannot find it ? Thanks for everybody -Aki |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Hmm, it worked for me just fine, but I'm using the version from Extras-devel. If that is your version as well, please make sure you have Extras-devel activated in the package manager.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Thanks a lot for all the time you've put into this application, conny! It's really great, but now it is my time to have sync problems. I've tried deleting the settings using gconftool, reinstalling and moving the /home/user/.conboy folder, but I still get the error 'Could not connect to host' and sometimes I get 'reply is no json string' (or something similar). The output when running in terminal is
Code:
GET Request: https://one.ubuntu.com/notes/api/1.0?oauth_consumer_key=anyone&oauth_nonce=Lu3EKwS0mirigkn7f&oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1&oauth_timestamp=1288563223&oauth_token=&oauth_version=1.0&oauth_signature=*********Oh, and the signature has been removed by me in case it could somehow be sensitive. Again, thanks a lot for the effort you've put into this :) |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Thanks for the detailed error description. The problem for Conboy is definitively the error returned by U1. Unfortunately U1 think it's clever to return HTML to a JSON request...
The big question of course it, what causes that error and I must admit that I don't really know. It looks like the error already occurs at the authentication stage, so I think we can assume that it's not a problem of malformed notes. Did you try to sync Tomboy with that account? Does it work? |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Yes, Tomboy has been set up to sync a long time ago. I haven't tried to remove the settings and re-authenticate on a desktop, though. Maybe that could be worth the try. If you don't know what is wrong, I'm starting to think that there might be an error on the U1 side. Especially since the error is a 503.
I'll report back with the results after authenticating Tomboy again. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
A new version of Conboy is in extras-devel. My goal is to create 0.7 as new stable version during the weekend. So if you find show stoppers, please tell me. Also help with the translations is always appreciated: http://www.transifex.net/projects/p/conboy/c/trunk/
Thanks :) |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Sorry for not having the time to report back before now, but apparently the sync works again. I didn't really do any changes, so maybe it has been fixed on the U1 side of it :)
|
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Sure, no problem. That sometimes happens. Good that it works again:)
Also I've just pushed Conboy 0.7 into extras-devel and it's on its way to extras-testing. If everything works fine we soon have a new stable release. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Conboy 0.7 is now in Extras-testing. Please give it a try and vote here:
http://maemo.org/packages/package_in.../conboy/0.7.0/ My present for the MeeGo Conference :) |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Great, thanks for the new versions! One thing, though: I can't find a changelog anywhere. The changelog that is included when updating the app hasn't been up to date since 0.5.5. Would you please update it for the next release?

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Hmm, that's strange. I have the following in my debian/control file:

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
conny is it possible to remove horizontal scrollbar hint from the note list control? occasionally i've written a note with a reaaaaaaaaaallllyyllooooooooongtiiiiiitle and that creates the ugly horizontal scrollbar and pushes all dates out of view. i think the list control should rather cut the title at certain charcount and suffix with ... charcount probably needs to change with portrait vs landscape mode.
|
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
My note titles are usually quite short, so I never saw this happening, but it sounds like a good suggestion to me. I'll have a look :)
|
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Finally a new stable version is available!
Stable Conboy 0.7 released to Extras The detailed release notes can be found here. If I forgot anyone in my thanks, please tell me. Otherwise enjoy :) |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
how does the sync work? can I sync stuff into other places than the ubuntu one?

That will pull everything from the server again, but you will loose changes on your N900 that have not yet been synced. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)

In the new .conboy directory there also appeared a file called synced_notes.txt which listed the synced files. Perhaps I should mention also that when I visited Conboy's settings after emptying the .conboy directory, the syncronization URL was already there and the Authenticate button did nothing. (Looked like maybe it was grayed out.) After discovering this, I presumed that the authentication info was somewhere other than the .conboy directory (where?) and I did _not_ need to reauthenticate. So I went ahead and tried syncing. And got 8 files (as mentioned above). You said this was "_A_ way to solve this..." I thought I'd try to find a more focused approach, so I tried a diff on the Conboy/Tomboy filename lists from the N900 and my laptop. I found one file on each machine that was not on the other (in both cases it was a general Tomboy info file). This situation may have been generated by a recent experiment with syncing a _third_ machine. I deleted both files. (After exiting the app on each machine.) I've done a couple syncs at both ends since the deletes. Things seem to be okay. I'll report back if there are further problems. Hope this helps someone else. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Yea, sorry, there should really be a re-authenticate button. You reauthenticate by changing the URL. E.g. remove and add the last character. After that the button works again.
Re-authentication is a important step as it resets the information about what is already synced. Only then it will download everything from the server again. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
I'm trying to to update from Fremantle Extras repository, but it always fails with message that libauth... can't be found anywhere.

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Is there a script or programme that can change the conboy/tomboy .note files to .doc (without all the programming language stuff showing as it does if you just do copy and paste.
I want to be able to view my notes in google docs. I know I can view in ubuntu but there is no structure or organisation with the ubuntu cloud system. Google docs on the other hand is well organised. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Etuoyo, I don't know about such a script and since no one else replied it looks like there is none.
There is however a script that converts Conboy notes to HTML. It's used if you use the sharing feature of Conboy. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
Been using Conboy/Tomboy synced using Ubuntu One for about a month now, works great, best note-taking solution I've found so far; i even use it for most of my word processing, as I like its simplicity, organization, and instant save functions.
One thing I was wondering, though -- why don't Maemo autocomplete suggestions come up while working in Conboy on the N900? It seems like the default for most other applications, including fairly straight ports from desktop linux programs, is to have autocomplete suggestions show up while inputing text. If this is a simple fix, I would suggest adding it into the next release, as it would give a bit of a boost in typing speed. |
Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
The text handling was already implemented on Maemo4 and unfortunately it turned out that the way we handle text is not compatible with the autocompletion feature of Maemo5. I looked at it, but there is no easy way to fix that. Sorry :/

Re: Conboy - Note Taking Application (Tomboy clone)
is there anyway to sync Conboy notes with Android or perhaps Google docs?
