Re: [Jami] Retriving key

[Wilfredo Samyr Rivas-Torres]

Howdy!,

Not sure if anyone else if anyone else got to your response yet, though
I am as well having problems with ring (or jami as its called now) in
Debian stable using the regular i386 builds which have an similar
problem after the initial setup,

once restarted or exited it refuses to start. Though on recovering your
account try:

- looking at ~/.local/share/ring

- there you should find some folders that have a random string of
characters like ns6gncgvifbd6du5

- In it you should find four files listed as 'contacts export.gz
ring_device.crt ring_device.key'

You only need the export.gz to restore your account as well the password
that you used to create it. I would recommend when you get ring started
back up renaming or moving .local/share/ring to regenerate a clean
directory as this at least for me gets ring back into starting up as
usual into initial setup. See if this helps ya out a little.
