Owncloud sync client8/9/2023 ![]() There were quite a lot of results that showed other people had similar problems over a large number of distro and with lots of different versions of the OwnCloud client. I knew this worked without asking me the password at each logon on Mint so I did a bit of googling, as you do. I previously had Linux Mint 18.3 with Xfce installed, it is based on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. It would also do this if I quit the OwnCloud client and started it from the menu again. It asked me to type in my password for the OwnCloud server again. Once I logged on the OwnCloud client started, but it popped up a message box with an error reading No keychain service available.

On Xubuntu this is simply named Software in the menu and you just search for owncloud and click the install button. Like most people using Ubuntu, I installed the OwnCloud desktop sync client using the built in software installer in Ubuntu. This solution will likely work for other Ubuntu flavours and quite possibly on other distros too. I figured I'd post something up for fellow Xubuntu users that might run into the same problem. ![]() This time I ran into a problem, but managed to figure it out after trawling through a lot of posts on the internet about similar problems. I host my own OwnCloud server on a Raspberry Pi 3 and installing the OwnCloud desktop sync client is usually one of the first things I do on a fresh installation. Amongst these are Budgie, KDE, LXDE, MATE and Xfce. For those of you that are unaware, besides the default Ubuntu release there are several flavours that are built with alternative desktop environments. ![]() I recently installed the Ubuntu 17.10.1 (Artful Aardvark) flavour named Xubuntu. ![]()
