Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open the Android Notifier Preferences
2. Left click the "Start at login" checkbox
3. Get a popup error "An error occurred while updating startup status".  I can 
click OK on the error, and I am brought back to the preferences, with the 
checkbox still unchecked.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Notifier 0.5.1 on Ubuntu 10.10 x64

Please provide the log output if possible (from the alogcat app on android,
Show Log menu on the multiplatform client, or Console on native mac app):

(Entire log file avail upon request, but I think these are the relevant lines)
