Gufw not opening

Post by baeverjo »

I just upgraded from 20.2 to 20.3 and have not been able to open Gufw after the update. I was trying to find out why I have some problems with Warpinator, and wanted to check my firewall settings, but the only way to see the settings is in the terminal. But there I can not see any errors!? It will not accept the settings Warpinator put in to the ufw. So I did it manually, it worked fine for some time, but now after a few new updates it stop working? No explanation or errors pops up. Except that the gufw guie is not opening. I tried to uninstall gufw and reinstall it. But still the same. Any tips how to make the gufw work?

Start gufw from the Terminal with the gufw command, see if it gives any messages.
Also share your system info: inxi -Fxxxmprz
