Unfortunately the original maintainer @baumgarr seems to be currently busy with another stuff and can't be contacted.
I did some bug fixing in my fork and also added some new functions and new AppImage packaging suited for various linux distributions. I also introduced few new bugs :) .. but all basic functions already seem to be quite stable (like sync with Evernote, adding/editing notes/search ... all what you would need for daily use).
For anyone interested the in new version of "Nixnote 2.1":
If you find some problem, you may fill "new issue" .. but pls do it in my fork. I will try also respond to issues/comments created here in upstream, but as I don't have any access rights, I can't tag the issues nor close them so its becoming a bit cluttered.
If you are having an issue using NixNote2, please check here first, to see if it is commonly encountered, a known bug, or something for which we already have a workaround.
You'll find instructions for installing from application repositories for common operating systems, including:
- Debian
- Ubuntu
- ?ubuntu
- Arch
- Gentoo
- Fedora
- RedHat
- CentOS
and all their derivatives in the ReadMe at the bottom of this GitHub project's home page.
You'll also find builds for many Linux flavours and Windows in the sourceforge builds page, but these will not install or update automatically.
If you see the error Invalid Note Structure when syncing, this is usually when a note contains invalid markup, as nixnote2 / Evernote only supports a subset of the full HTML markup language. Most people notice this after pasting content into a note that they have copied from a page in a web browser.
To find the note that is preventing
Although you can try to work around the issue by using the View / Show Source menu option to remove the offending HTML code, most users find it quicker and easier to Edit / Paste as Unformatted Text [CTRL][SHFT][P] when copying content from their browsers.
There is an open feature request to prevent this happening, #324, but in the mean time you can avoid it with unformatted paste.
On Windows when I first try to synchronize I got this error Login failed: Error creating SSL context()
Some builds of the Windows executable require a DDL - see https://github.com/baumgarr/nixnote2/issues/293 for instructions.
You'll find some other Known Issues and FAQs in the inline documentation for NixNote2. Either use the app menu Help / User's Guide or open it directly from github then look towards the end under sections 'Known Issues' and 'Frequently Asked Questions'.
If you have checked the suggestions above, just before creating a new issue, Search to see if someone has raised the same issue already - searching yourself is much quicker than waiting for someone to respond...
- click on the Issues tab at the top of this screen
- click in the Filters box just underneath
- highlight any default filters (triple-click) and delete them
- type in some part of your error message and Enter to search
If you've searched, and no-one else has raised this issue yet, then please create a New Issue and we'll try our best to help you out.
These are what used to be on this wiki page before the list of FAQs was created. We should find somewhere else to move these...
