KWallet naming problem

kdewalleterror

Hi, i’m trying to create a blowfish wallet with the name “kdewallet” so I can use pam-kwallet to automatically open my wallet at login. The problem is that before this I created another gpg wallet with a different name, and now when KDE prompts me to create a new wallet while connecting to the internet, the name chosen is the same as the one I created before, even though I already deleted all my wallets on kwalletmanager. Is there a way to rename the wallet after creating it, or to get a different prompt at the time of creation?
Thanks in advance!

@Leopoldo_Donato:

First, welcome to the KDE Discuss forum.


You will have to not only delete all the Wallets previously created from within the KWallet application –

  • You’ll also have to to the following –
  1. Close the KWallet application.
  2. Delete everything in ‘~/.local/share/kwalletd/
  3. Delete the following files in ‘~/.config/’ –
    I’m on KDE Plasma 5 – for KDE Plasma 6 the file names will be different –
 > find .config/ -iname '*wallet*'
.config/kwalletrc
.config/kwalletmanager5rc
 >

Once you’ve done that, you should be able to create a new Blowfish encrypted Wallet named “kdewallet”.

Regardless of whether the above recipe works or not, a KDE Bug Report is needed to report the behaviour you’ve experienced – <KDE Bugtracking System>
