Have you checked the permission? Can you open the "propriety" dialog and see the "open with" tag?

I cannot change the "Open With" applications for the different file types - like .doc, .avi, etc in GNOME. When I select application from the "Open With" dialog I get - "Error - Cannot add application to the applications database". Does anybody have any idea what's causing this problem. Also the Firefox Flashgot plugin does not start the apps associated with it(Aria for example) and I was wondering if the two problems are connected. I have had this problem for quite some time - since I first installed Arch 5 months ago, I have asked of various Linux and GNOME forums, on the Arch forum as well and so far got NONE replies to all of my topics... You're my only hope ... and GNOME 2.12 of course ;) P.S. In Fedora Core 4 all of this works like a charm, so I guess it's something to do with Arch's packaging of GNOME.
