Hi,
I downloaded NoteFinder-0.5 and installed it following the INSTALL file
on a machine running Debian Lenny.
It does have the needed Dependencies satisfied.
However, when I type 'notefinder', I get an error message:
--------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/notefinder", line 38, in <module>
notebook = Notebook(config.getNotebook())
File "usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/notefinderlib/libnotetaking/config.py", line 75, in getNotebook
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/ConfigParser.py", line 511, in get
raise NoSectionError(section)
ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'General'
-----------
Any idea what could be the problem ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi sroy,
The management of the ini config file of notefinder is a bit simplistic and does not work when there is not ini file.
I created one with notefinder 0.1, then I patched it to reflect some changes in the code:
Here is my ini file:
[Markup]
default = Wiki
[Notebooks]
default = FileSystem
[General]
Notebook = default
[UI]
Session =
[FileSystem]
default = /home/pgaillard/.notes
[View]
default = False
Project wiki and bug tracker aren't available under notefinder.co.cc domain name, hoster seems to have some DNS problems, should be fixed today or tomorrow.

Any idea what to do? Thanks.
Notefinder also require the package python-setuptools, if it isn't installed it explains why the installation of notefinder fails.
Maybe you already figured this out.
Thanks. I did realize that I had to install something, but I did not think to append the word Python to the beginning of it.
Now, the install seems to have finished with no errors, but I do not have a notefinder excecutable:

judging from a brief look at the source, a file named 'notefinder/Settings.py' is missing?
Oh, really, just uploaded correct files, see notefinder-0.1.4.1.{tar.gz/zip} Occasionally no time to update links/version here now. Thanks!
No, don't wait, post now! :)
Here's your Bug #1: http://notefinder.co.cc/notefinder/bugs/index.php?page=bug_show&bug_id=1 There's more to come. Thanks!

Executable is NoteFinder.pyw, not notefinder.
Thanks, very nice! Is there a bug tracker? I see a lot of room for improvement and I'd like to help.
Of course, http://notefinder.co.cc/notefinder/bugs Note, will be moved to http://notefinder.co.cc/bugs tomorrow =)
Thanks, I will wait a few days for you to settle in before I file bugs. You are going to hate me :)
hello, sorry your program need PyQT4, so the QT4, it is for kde4? If yes I think would be better an advice. bye
