As another respondent (who replied to you not the list, please don't do that) said, perhaps you used Geany as root and that left the link to the socket in your config owned by root. You should close _all_ Geanys and delete the dead link in your config (default ~/.config/geany/geany_socket.some_stuff_depending_on_your_machine) with sudo. Ubuntu is one of the brain dead sudo implementations that does not change the user when you sudo, so you leave root owned crap in the user directory that they can't get rid of.

Looks like a permission problem. I hate fixing linux permission problems. Any suggestions (other than tacking on "sudo" in front of every single command, ha ha)? I wish there was a blanket security permission thing I could just set to "low" as I'm literally the only person using this system.

Opening a new tab in a running instance is the default behaviour, there is something going wrong if it doesn't work. Look in `help->debug messages` after it opens a new instance.
Otherwise need more information.

Hi, I often open bash files from a script to edit by either doing this:
geany "some file.sh"or this
xdg-open "some file.sh"Every time I do that I get a separate instance of geany with the file.
Is there a way to force it to *not* do a new instance but rather open a new pane or tab or whatever its called in an existing window?
