Can I reinstall the camera?

I had similar experience a while ago. In my case there was a problem with the filesystem so it was mounted in read only mode.

Try (at your own risk): "mount -o remount rw /home/user/MyDocs" as root in a console
and try the camera again. If it works after that try fix the filesystem.

I dont think the problem is in filesystem because the error is shown during the startup of camera not during saving photos.

Is there any command to see if everything related to camera is working fine or not?

reflash the firmware and emmc sounds like your best bet. good to hear healthcheck works!

Without reflashing there is no way?

if healthcheck shows the camera works, that uses gstreamer, so the hardware is working, does sound like the app - and possibly a problem with the system files.
