I have just opend app manager to install a new app, there are no catalogues or installed applications showing. The only thing I have done recently is run backup.

Any suggestions? I dont want to reboot until I have an idea of what may have caused this.

So when you bring up your catalogs list there is nothing in it at all?

Nothing in catalogues list , clicking on uninstall says no installed apps.

I have looked in "/var/lib/hildon-application-manager" screenshot below

There are the following files that I assume are from running backup

packages.backup
catalogues.backup
catalogues2.backup

should there be similar files without backup extension?

No, those files are nothing to do with running the backup program, and there aren't supposed to be any similar files without the extension.

Do you have free space on the rootfs? And do you have anything in /var/lib/apt/lists? And what's the contents of the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list file?

I have just noticed the app manager log, really must look more carefully.

The problem was a corrupt sudoers file, not sure what caused it though, i ran update-sudoers and all is working again.
