Linux Debian Nextcloud Client Won't Launch on System Start

[piemaker]

I am running Nextcloud Desktop Client on MX Linux 25.

Installed via Synaptic:

Although the Desktop Client is added to startup it won’t do so after log in. Starting the application manually the client appears in the taskbar and works flawlessly.

On another computer (MX Linux 23) everything works as it should with the follwoing settings. Copying them to this computer (MX Linux 25) does not work however.

I’ve done lots of internet research. It seems to be a common problem. None of the suggested solutions worked for me.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi @piemaker

I’d say that’s probably more of an MX Linux issue than an issue with the Nextcloud client. It also seems that MX Linux hides their bug tracker behind a login, so you can’t search for existing issues there without having an account.

If you don’t get any more replies here, you might also want to ask in their forums.

Did you ever try the use of the NC-Client build in Autostart Option?

Thanks for your quick reply!

Launch on system start is enabled/ticked.

Just in case anyone else stumbles upon the same issue… I created a post in the MX Linux Forum.

I was able to solve the issue by myself. Find the steps I took in the above mentioned MX Linux Forum post.
