Qownnotes: Operating system shutdown process interrupted

[pbek]

Now and then it seems QOwnNotes is able to interrupt the shutdown process of the operating system.
May be related with starting a git commit when the application quits.

• attempted to fix an occasional operating system shutdown process interruption

There now is a new release, could you please test it and report if it works for you?

I updated to the new version.
Bug is still present.

1.Choose shutdown -wiht QownNotes still open.

1. All apps close.
2. Receive notification that QownNotes has stopped shutdown.
3. Open menu. Open QownNotes. Close QownNotes.
4. Choose shutdown. Computer shuts down.

Kubuntu 19.04 on Dell Precision 5520 & 5720.

Could you please post the output from your debug settings (see issue template) so that I can compare our settings and other stats.

Hi and thank you for this great program. I use it daily and love it!

I'm running Kubuntu 19.04 and KDE Neon.

After shutdown gets interrupted, nothing new appears in the log.

[pbek]

Thank you for your kind words, @bipox. Do you have debug message turned on in the log? What happens in the log before the shutdown occurs?

And could you please post the output from the debug settings.

[bipox]

Yes I have debug message turned on, no new message appears after the shutdown fails.

edit: I should add, KeepassXC, a password manager, has the same behaviour.

There now is a new release, could you please test it and report if it works for you?

I tried this a few times:

• if QOwnNotes has an open window, trying to shut down through GUI will close QOwnNotes' window and will show the "shutdown inhibited" popup.
  If I try again, the computer now shuts down

• if QownNotes is running but with no open window, nothing prevents the computer from shutting down

This is already much better

[pbek]

I now shut down the app as soon it gets the event to "store its data". I don't know if it can get better than that... :)

[bipox]

Already miles better, thanks!

I will close this issue until there is more information.
