[Bug 1218687] Re: Top-Panel Menus Won't Drop Down for Dbeaver

 

It appears to be a permissions issue preventing these menus from
displaying.

Here's a work around. If you launch dbeaver from the command line using
sudo, the menus do work:

sudo /usr/share/dbeaver/dbeaver

Apparently, something changed in Ubuntu 13.10 to where now this exact
same dbeaver deb installer installs in a manner in which dbeaver cannot
access all of its prerequisites when launched as a regular non-sudo
user.

Unfortunately, this work-around isn't perfect; any previous dbeaver
settings, that were saved in your user account's home folder won't be
accessed when launching dbeaver this way. You'll have to set all
settings from scratch or some how copy your local user settings to the
correct root location that gets queried during this sudo-launch of the
application.

  Top-Panel Menus Won't Drop Down for Dbeaver

Bug description:
  I initially installed Dbeaver in 13.04 and then upgraded to Ubuntu
  13.10.

  In 13.04, I was able to drop-down menus located in Unity's top-panel
  when Dbeaver had focus. However, now these menus won't drop down. I'm
  not sure that this is Dbeaver specific, or if this bug should be
  forwarded to the platform that Dbeaver runs on.
