With datastore not running, expected symptoms are as you say; activities are not shown, and activities cannot be started. (Colour of icon in home view is determined by existence of a journal object for that activity, so before home view is shown the journal must be searched for matching objects. The journal is held by the datastore.) However, I am surprised at your shell.log, for three reasons; 1. it does not show any errors about trying to contact the datastore. 2. the timestamp in the file of 1564399715.389937 is 29th July at 4:58pm, which was 2.65 days ago, yet the traceback was from 31st July at 10:17am. 3. it shows Sugar was being started on an X11 display that already has a window manager; normally Sugar is run on a display with no window manager, and this may imply you are starting Sugar from a Terminal instead of from an X session or login greeter. On the theory that the datastore is failing to start, please test again by one or more of; (a) looking at apport /var/crash to find evidence confirming failure, (b) temporarily excluding Sugar and activities, using instead the copy-to-journal tool provided by the datastore, (c) deinstalling the /usr/local datastore and reinstalling the packaged datastore, (d) running the datastore by hand instead of requiring D-Bus to start it, and look for errors. Hope that helps.
