Cannot paste using keyboard in Ubuntu terminal

[crowcrowcrow]

I cannot paste using my keyboard in Ubuntu terminal. Copy works (ctrl+c). I have tried ctrl+v, shift ctrl+v and shift insert.

Copy your text. left click in terminal, right click for drop menu, choose "paste". That's the only way that O have ever got it to work.

Can you show us this please:

ps -p$PPID

ps -p$PPID

Using Ubuntu 22.04 with Gnome 42.9, here is the result:-

edited@edited-22-04:~$ ps -p$PPID
    PID TTY          TIME CMD
   3241 ?        00:00:00 gnome-terminal-

Copy is Shift + Ctrl + C
Paste is Shift + Ctrl + V

@tea for one Please see my original post.

Ctrl+c in terminal does not normally copy the text but cancels whatever process is running, so I'm surprised that you can get copy to work that way.

As mentioned by tea for one above
Copy is Shift + Ctrl + C
Paste is Shift + Ctrl + V
are the default keyboard shortcuts for copy/paste so something seems strange about what you're seeing with your keyboard shortcuts..

Yes, I have seen your original post.
However, in post no. 4, you do not report gnome-terminal.
Your result below:-

ps -p$PPID
PID TTY TIME CMD
375 ? 00:00:00 Relay(376)

+1
or in my case

ps -p$PPID
    PID TTY          TIME CMD
   7710 ?        00:03:47 xfce4-terminal

Are you sure it's gnome-terminal?

apt policy gnome-terminal
gnome-terminal:

In Ubuntu 20.04 (and I guess upwards) open the terminal and click on the hamberger icon (3 horizontal lines). Select Preferences. Select Shortcuts. There we see

Copy = Shift+Ctrl+C Paste = Shift+Ctrl+V

All the shortcuts are in the Preferences dialog.
