[BUG] - Could not initialize bookmarks

[veeso]

have you tried with mkdir -p $HOME/.config/termscp?

Recently had a similar issue.
Solved it by inspecting the bookmarks file.

• check for dupe bookmark name in bookmarks.toml, or corrupted bookmarks.toml file.

Thx for the replies!

the $HOME/.config/termscp is existed. And the $HOME/termscp/bookmarks.toml looks like

[bookmarks]

After some experiments, I find out that the bookmark function can work if the termscp run with sudo.

So I compare the logs between using sudo and without sudo.

The main difference is the following

And the log

#without sudo
2023-12-18T06:01:07.387271876Z [ERROR] Failed to get key from storage: Provider service error

#with sudo
2023-12-18T06:02:36.097700228Z [WARN] KeyringStorage is not supported; using FileStorage

DO you have gnome on ubuntu? In that case you could try to see whether the gnome-keyring is accessible to your user

[k0286]

Because the server I used is a headless server, so I'm not sure the gnome-keyring is enabled or not.

But even I start the gnome-keyring-daemon manually, using the following snippet and add the module to the pam, I still get the same error message in termscp

$ eval $(/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11,secrets,ssh)
$ export SSH_AUTH_SOCK

I'm running into this same problem.
