Ubuntu 16.04 Seafile exited unexpectedly (on mounted decrypted partition)

Seafile Client
1

Hello!
Since one or two months, I am not able to launch seafile client on Ubuntu:

Seafile exited unexpectedly

I have tried to remove everything:

sudo apt purge seafile-gui seafile-daemon seafile-cli etc …

And reinstall with this: (sorry I can’t post links for the moment)

Ubuntu users can install Seafile client from the Official PPA:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:seafile/seafile-client
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install seafile-gui

I have also tried to launch manually the command: seafile-applet
But:

lang = English, translation = (null), locale.name() = en_US
(process:3992): Searpc-WARNING **: pipe client failed to connect to server: No such file or directory

The result remains the same: Seafile exited unexpectedly.

I don’t know what else I can do or what log can be relevant to find a solution :confused:

Thanks for your help!

Ok, It s working again.
So here are things I have tried:
I have uninstalled seafile-gui : sudo apt purge seafile-gui
I have removed ~/.ccnet and and my seafile folder /media/veracrypt1/Seafile (which is a mounted decrypted container).
If I try to keep this configuration, seafile crashes: Seafile exited unexpectedly
Here are log files:

It seems to work again. Maybe it is the partition type that is the problem (decrypted container). But it was working before so …
I leave this here, maybe it can help someone in the same situation.
