[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2012-04-09 Thread Edward Donovan
An update for the record:

People were still reporting this into 2011, though this was marked
fixed.   (Except for a wish for upgrades to clean up cruft under ~/)

It was happening to me too, and has now been fixed again: see bug
797000.  Permanently, I hope -- it seems we've replayed this problem.
'nautilus-folder-handler.desktop' is installed under /usr, and, with a
clean config under .local, you can open folders with other apps, like
media players.   But the Trash, and places that should be opened with
Nautilus, get Nautilus, and not those other apps, anymore.  So I think
the later comments were valid, and have finally been addressed.

Like I said, hope it stays that way!  :)

[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2012-04-09 Thread Edward Donovan
Oh yeah -- if you do have older .desktop files, created by nautilus, in
~/.local/share/applications, you can still have the Trash opened with
the movie player, etc.  I had to delete those, specifically an old
version of nautilus-folder-handler.desktop.

So the problem with this affecting upgrading users, rather than new
installs, remains.  That might be a wishlist bug for nautilus itself,
for newer versions to clean up those old files.  That might be more
likely than trying to do it through update-manager.

[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2011-04-10 Thread Mike Fairbank
I have just experienced these exact symptoms on my upto date version of
Ubuntu 10.10.

Any folder I opened from the places would immediately cause the entire
contents of that folder to be opened by media player.

I fixed the problem afterwards by editing
.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list as someone above recommended.

However it caused further dodgy problems on my system: The update
manager popped up and thought it was doing a partial upgrade.  Update
manager also prompted me to do sudo apt-get install -f and sudo dpkg
--configure -a to clear things up, which worked eventually.

I would recommended that this bug be rated more seriously.   It's still
present in ubuntu 10.10.

Leading up to my experience of this bug, I had been trying to open a
corrupted file in both VLC and Media Player, so maybe that was the
cause?

Good luck with fixing it.

The probem exists for me in Maverick.

If I have gnome-mplayer installed, *and* I have at least once opened
System-Preferences-Preferred Applications (without changing anything
there!) Places start being opened by mplayer instead of nautilus.

Presumably (?) Preferred applications creates
.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list file, and it has
inode/directory with bad order of entries.

Obvioulsy editing this file and making nautilus-folder-handler.desktop
the first (or only) entry in this line reverts things to norm, but this
should not happen in the first place.

[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2010-08-06 Thread Lars Ola Liavåg
Once you have Nautilus open, e.g. by typing nautilus in a terminal, you
can navigate to and right-click on any of the objects in your Places
menu and choose other application etc. This made my folders open with
Nautilus again, whether I do it from the Places menu, using GNOME Do, or
from within Nautilus itself. If this doesn't work for you, I'm afraid I
have no further advice. Anyway, this is just the same workaround
mentioned in the original bug posting and I guess this bug is really
about the hijacking of the opening application in the first place.

[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2010-07-14 Thread Mark Kaehny
Version 10.10 fresh updates  as of 2010-7-10  with zero other changes also has 
this exact bug. 
Going into .local/share/applications/mimeapps.list and altering mime-type for 
inode/directory to nautilus.desktop  fixed the problem.
Something is changing or adding that line to that file.

I can confirm this  bug still exists in Lucid (10.04)

The system defaulted to trying to open my Home directory in Movie

PLEASE STOP MARKING THIS EFFING BUG AS FIX RELEASED!  IT IS NOT.

Totally fresh Karmic install - completely borked after less than a
month with this bug.

Rather than mark this as fix released maybe a developer could explain
the problem in detail to us so that we can fix this as it gets screwed
up?

I have to now waste a day reinstalling my O/S.

It's marked as fixed in Hardy and Intrepid.  You're saying it exists in
Karmic now too?  When you say totally fresh, do you mean you do or don't
have updates installed? If it was this bug coming back, it shouldn't
take a month either.  It should immediately break as soon as you opened
a folder in any application other than Nautilus.  Do you fit that
completely reproducible test case? If not, open a new bug.

My two cents here if it d help someone:
This bug was triggered to my system (Jaunty) when i edited the program menu by 
remmoving some entries. Eg. removing the metacity entries (About 10 of them) 
which i have i no idea how they appeared in the program menu -unchecked- caused 
metacity not to run. Similarly removing Dolphin file manager entry (several 
entries) caused nautilus (the default one) not to open the shortcuts from the 
places menu.

2009-11-06 Thread Lex Ross
I hit the exact same problem when performing clean 9.10 Karmic install
preserving my home directory. I had 7.04, 8.04, 8.10 and 9.04 clean
installations before with no problems. Double-clicking folders on the
desktop would open them implying there was an application registered for
folder mime type. The places menu entries however did not work as per
this bug report. Had to right-click on a folder, select open with
another program... and then to pick nautilus as default application to
open this and other files of type folder to fix this issue.

I am not sure if the problem occurred right after install or after
tracker installation and removal (and then I have manually removed
~/.config/tracker file as well). It may worth to look at tracker app as
a potential source of a problem, as it was installed on earlier versions
of Ubuntu by default, and is supposed to index files and folders so it
could possibly affect mimetype list somehow.

Having said that, I never had a problem like this until upgrading to
Karmic.

[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2009-02-13 Thread Jean Dewald
I got the same problem with with the Places Menu a fresh installation (from 
Vista to Ubuntu 8.10).
It didn't appear directly.

After 1 or 2 weeks, just to give me the time to get a little familiar
with Linux after years of Microsoft, I decided to download some more
applications via the Synoptic Package Manager .

Maybe I made  an error by downloading  a serie of equivalent applications just 
to find out which one suited me best.
So I can't know wiche program triggered the bug;

But from than on, the 3 first items of the Places Menu fired the gtkpod program.
I tried to correct the error with the 'Open with' menu.
In place I got the message 
 Could not open the location file:///home/...  
 No application is registered as handling the file

In mimeapps.list if found the line
' inode/directory= '

 Replacement by line 
'inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;'
corrected the error.

My story should give the hint that the bug doens't come from Nautilus,
but somewhere in the installing procedure of applications

Saw the same problem here (folders are opened with Totem). Started to
happen immediately after upgrading to Intrepid. Yes, I did choose once
to open a folder with Totem back then when it was Hardy yet but this
didn't change the default: I opened the home folder (and other folders)
a zillion times after that and naitilus was started for them, not Totem.
What changed the default was the upgrade process.

I'm confirming that the intrepid-proposed version works correctly, I've
set eog as the default application to open directories on intrepid,
upgraded gnome-panel and restarted the session, nautilus was used by
default, the message line was in the .xsession-errors log and eog was
still listed as a choice in the context menu which is what expected.
Changing the default choice to eog again and restarting the session let
eog selected as expected too which means intrepid users can correctly
change the setting in intrepid too.

Got the same problem here, upgraded today (Nov 02), directory was open by

opened by Movie player. Then I realise it was file association problem as the

In addition to put back the right association, I have to clean up many

[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2008-11-02 Thread CarloBecchi
Same here.
I've installed Intrepid this moring, fresh install in /  mounting my /home 
partition during the installation process.

My parasitic application was F-Spot:

inode/directory=f-spot-import.desktop;nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;userapp-nautilus-MKNLJU.de
text/x-python=gedit.desktop;

As you can see, the Open with workaround didn't work for me because
the result was appended and not swapped.

Fixed changing the line to
inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;

Thanks.

I experience the same problem after upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10. For me,
gnome-panel tried to open the Places folders with QCad. I took the tact
of un-installing QCad, but then gnome-panel started trying to open
everything with VLC.

I'm surprised that this is a wishlist item but I have found the location
of the problem and the fix. For some reason when you continue to use the
.local folder from 8.04 it makes the problem happen for 8.10, so if you
remove the .local folder completely and then restart, intrepid creates
its own .local folder and the problem completely disappears

2008-10-31 Thread geologic
Just did a network upgrade to the official release of 8.10, and had this
problem. Any of the directories from 'Places' opened with Totem. From
the desktop nautilus launched as normal. I was then able to change 'Open
With...' and luckily changing just one folder fixed them all.

Also, possibly related[?] is that the folder icons used in 'Places' are
the default Gnome icons, and do not match my icon theme. Before
upgrading they matched, but are now different. All other icons in
'Places' are the same, including 'Home' and 'Desktop'.

Here is what needs to be done:
 - have a new key (need_fixup or somthing) defaulting to false
 - a postinst snippet setting it to true for upgrades
 - gnome-panel code which reads this key and call the code when the key is true
 - the code change the default association to nautilus if that's not nautilus 
yet
 - and after running the key is set to false

2008-10-31 Thread A. Walton
I'm not convinced the patch is correct; you're incorrectly looking for
the nautilus .desktop file, when we install one specifically for
browsing folders (namely nautilus-folder-handler.desktop, which uses the
commandline nautilus --no-desktop %U). Ideally we'd just
set_as_default_for_type that specific entry, by looking it up by id (the
Name field of the desktop entry file; Open Folder).

This also looks a bit bogus to me:
+ g_warning(inode/directory points to '%s' - fixing, 
g_app_info_get_executable(app), nautilus);

Hello A.Walton,

thanks a lot for your review of the patch. I will update it to use the
id field. I also noticed that my previous patch did not unref the items
in the glist, I will fix that too.

I would like to keep the g_warning (make it a g_info maybe) so that it
appears in .xsession-errros just in case we need to ask if it was run or
not.

By the way I don't understand why this isn't a bug in gnome-panel:

- with the same (buggy ?) configuration in .local/share/applications, 
gnome-panel had no problems in hardy, while it doesn't work in intrepid.
- nautilus in intrepid no problem with the configuration in 
.local/share/applications, iirc the places sidebar was still working fine.

In intrepid:

inode/directory=something.desktop;nautilus-folder-handler.desktop;

$ cat .local/share/applications/something.desktop
[Desktop Entry]

The gnome-panel will launch vlc, while nautilus open places correctly
in itself (when clicking in the sidebar). Actually, even if I remove
nautilus-folder-handler.desktop from the list, it still works in
nautilus.

So why does nautilus have a different behaviour than gnome-panel ?
Should it follow mimeapps.list ?

Then I think there's a second bug, if there are more than one entry in
mimeapps.list, and the first entry fails to launch, shouldn't it retry
with the second entry, etc. ?

For me the first entry was trying to launch wxvlc, which doesn't exist
anymore in intrepid, shouldn't it try to launch nautilus instead of
throwing an error message ?

I know update-manager usually doesn't change usersettings, but this case
is special in that the resulting behaviour has been changed already by
the bugfix in gnome-panel and changing the users setting to make the
default nautilus again automatically would result in the old expected
behaviour for most people. I.e. it would lead to less percieved changes
in usersettings than when doing nothing.

Michael: with upgrade note you mean a message displayed during
upgrading? And then a button that when clicked would fix this for the
user? That doesn't sound too bad either, although this will be hard to
communicate understandably without getting too technical.

[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2008-10-28 Thread Wouter Stomp
Reopened this against update-manager, as new reports of people who have
just upgraded are still coming in. Hopefully update-manager can avoid
getting in this situation somehow.

2008-10-27 Thread Andreas Jonsson
I can confirm that the problem still exists. I upgraded from hardy to
intrepid RC1 on Oct 25th, and ever since baobab was started whenever I
clicked a location under the Places menu. I resolved this simply by
removing the following problematic line in
.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list:

[Added Associations]
inode/directory=baobab-usercreated.desktop;

you confirm that the current intrepid creates buggy configuration? are
you sure you didn't have that configuration in hardy?

[Bug 260492] Re: opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly

2008-10-27 Thread tonfa
I don't know if intrepid *creates* the buggy configuration (because I
didn't look in .local/share/applications before upgrading), but I am
sure that I didn't have any problem opening a directory in hardy, while
trying to open a directory with intrepid (from the places menu) didn't
work and tried to open it with wxvlc.

So please reopen the bug.

I upgraded to Intrepid during the rc phase to catch this kind of bug, it
would be nice if other people do not encounter this bug.

2008-10-27 Thread Andreas Jonsson
Sebastian:

I went back and looked at a backed up version of

.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list

from my hardy installation (i.e. what I had before I upgraded to
intrepid RC1). I was surprised to see that my hardy and intrepid
mimeapps.list files are identical. So, just to be clear, I had the buggy
line

[Added Associations]
inode/directory=baobab-usercreated.desktop;

also in my hardy installation. However, I didn't experience any problems
in hardy. Strange... Let me know what I can do to help further.
