"Could not save config file..." Error

(1/5) > >>

spflanze:
Whenever I close CodeBlocks 16.01 I get two error message windows. Their messages are:

--- Quote ---Unable to open personal dictionary file
Could not save config file...

--- End quote ---

Not remembered between invocations of CodeBlocks 16.01 are:
1) Recent projects and files
2) The base directory for the wx global directory

What do I need to do to enable CodeBlocks to save the config file?

oBFusCATed:
State your OS as a start. Another option is to start codeblocks from a console and pass --debug-log -v options to see extended information.

spflanze:
The OS is Windows 7 Professional SP1

This problem is solved. The problem was I was using CbLauncher.exe to invoke CodeBlocks. Now I use codeblocks.exe and when this is used instead the errors no longer appear when closing it, the recent files and projects are remembered, and so is the wx global variable.

crobar:
I'm seeing the same issue on 17.12 on Ubuntu 16.04. I followed the instructions in the post above to produce debug output, see the session below.

I can't actually remember now for sure, but I think I compiled codeblocks from source. To get the error I changed the brace completion to false and exited codeblocks.
