[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1067915] Re: gedit can't open a txt file
I’ve been facing a similar issue. For me the problem was that the encoding of the file had changed since it was last opened with Gedit (from WINDOWS-1252 to UTF-8). As I had manually set the encoding when first opening the file, Gedit had saved this information and tried to reuse it the next time I opened the file after the encoding change; this resulted in said error message. To fix the problem, I had to remove the saved encoding information from the gvfs metadata like so: gvfs-set-attribute --type unset MY_FILE.txt 'metadata::gedit- encoding' I have posted more information on this at http://askubuntu.com/a/279820/137449. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067915 Title: gedit can't open a txt file Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have a txt file with a list of pages of different sites (related to my work).
