[Bug 966086] [NEW] Enabling VLC causes stack trace and prevents OpenLP from starting

 

Public bug reported:

From: http://support.openlp.org/issues/499

Ubuntu
OpenLP 1.9.9 

 File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openlp/core/ui/media/vlc.py", line 894, in media_player_new
    p._instance = self
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '_instance'


 Got to the media tab, saw the VLC option and ticked it, moved it to the top of the list. Got two "oops" messages one after the other. (Tracebacks are in the attached file - same error as before I think.)

 - I hadn't deleted the config file.

After deleting that, and the files in ~/.local/share/openlp, and
reinstalling, and restarting the computer (didn't work without that),
openlp started with a "first use" wizard. So now it is working with the
default songs etc. I haven't tried getting back our own songs, bibles,
themes etc yet. I will report back after trying that.
