in this package, the bug isn't fixed.

So I guess 3.6.10+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 isn't the same

2010-08-05 Thread JedMeister
I'm having this problem too (Ubuntu 10.04 / Firefox 3.6.8)

My suspicion is that it's caused by Firefox trying to save anything that
you open with' in the temp folder (as it does in Windows). In Ubuntu
the user does not have write permissions to the temp folder (/tmp).

I thought this may be easy to fix but I have just scrolled through
about:config and no mention of a temporary folder :(

In Ubuntu the user does not have write permissions to the temp folder

Rubbish, all users have access to write to /tmp, the system is
specifically designed to allow this.

Thanks David. I stand corrected.

After getting the original error message when trying to open with... I
was misguided by the error message that I receive when I double click on
the failed file (in the Firefox Downloads window): /tmp/filename could
not be saved, because you cannot change the contents of that folder.
Change the folder properties and try again, or try saving in a different
location. (Incidentally the file is in /tmp and can be opened by the
appropriate app by double clicking).

Rather than jumping to conclusions I should have double checked. As you
say David, I can indeed write to /tmp Obviously I'm a Linux newb but
there's not really any excuse for not double checking. Thanks for your
patience :)

Yep, same on my FF 3.6.3 10.04 - weird as the html looks ok and the
other links work ok.

On my system I get the prompt to Open or Save the file for all of them,
it is only after using Open that the error message for this file
partially load in the Viewer, then the viewer exits with this error
message.

I suspect that it is a problem with the Document Viewer/Firefox
interface rather than FF itself - when the Viewer crashed/exits FF
responds to that situation with the message we see.

This bug also affects me as long as I can remember. It doesn't happen
with all files and not with all websites. Unfortunately it affects me in
Smartschool, a popular electronic learning environment in Belgium that
I use on a daily basis. Almost all the files that suffer from this bug
have application/force-download as file-type.

The workaround is indeed to first save it and then open it. Of course
this isn't very user friendly and it costs some time. If you need to do
it a lot, it becomes frustrating. So, I would be V-E-R-Y happy if this
bug could be solved.

System: Ubuntu 9.10 (but this bug was also present in former versions of
Ubuntu).

Problem began for me within the last week or so. 
Problem is as described above.
Using:
  Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090910 
Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Shiretoko/3.5.3
Since I often keep my browser open for 3 - 4 days at a time, the problem may 
have begun with the first re-launch after the Gecko/20090910 update. The 
machine is current on all updates.
I have forced a rebuild of mimeTypes.rdf which had no effect.

2009-05-18 Thread IAmDaveMyers
Hi all.

This is a strange bug, but I get the impression that it is fixed?

however

I am writing my own php code and use the apache2 web server installed on
my local machine. Untill this morning everything worked just fine, then
suddenly all my PHP classes are now being saved (to the /tmp/
directory), and I am unable to open them!

I am still trying to find the solution for the config file for this
issue from reading the above thread I get the impression it is to do
with how the apache server deals with mime types.

However can anyone please explain why this was working fine up untill
early this morning, when suddenly it broke!

Oh and by the way, it will handle java applet class files just fine!

I'll add more details as I am able to find them, as someone else may
come to this thread also with the same problem.

David

** Description changed:

  Clicking some links in firefox-3.0 to download files displays the
  open/save dialog correctly, but if 'open' is selected with the default
  application, it fails with an error. Saving works as intended.
  
  The resulting error is:
  Download Error
  /tmp/(filename) could not be opened, because the associated helper 
application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences.

*Definitely* an ubuntuforums bug!

As I reported in comment #11 on 2008-09-09, and in email to the server
admins, and via IRC, the server *incorrectly* reports the mime-type for
text documents as plain/text - the correct mime-type for text files is
text/plain:

HTTP/1.x 200 OK

Date: Sat, 20 Dec 2008 21:49:06 GMT

Server: Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5.4 with Suhosin-Patch

X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5.4

content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test3nospace.txt

Content-Length: 9

X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff

X-Permitted-Cross-Domain-Policies: none

Content-Type: plain/text


Also in comment #11 I reported on the allowed attachment types that result in 
an unknown/unknown mime-type when the server should really be helpful and give 
the correct mime-types.

Sorry, based on the bug description I was under the impression that this
bug was strictly a client side problem where UF was used as an example.
Thank you for re-opening against UF, and sorry for the confusion.

Should this report also be opened against Apache (or another server side
piece of software) for providing incorrect MIME types?  In that case,
when a fix is released, the forum maintainer will be notified and can
upgrade the software.  Or is the configuration fix trivial to do without
a software upgrade?

Also, because everyone collects a set of personal handling preferences in the

(start Firefox from a command-line with firefox -ProfileManager).

Thanks Hew.

A side-note. That response header (304 Not Modified) shows the file is
already in the browser's local cache so nothing is fetched - hence no
Content-Type, etc.

During testing I have been clearing the browser cache using Edit 
Preferences  Privacy

With Ask me before clearing private data selected press the Clear
Now... button and deselect everything but Cache then press the Clear
Private Data Now button.

commit d14a61e1d07dcc0c8015114b13609104b0688502
Author: TJ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date:   Wed Sep 17 01:29:10 2008 +0100

When an incorrect or unrecognised Content-Type is found, and GetFromType() 
fails,
GetFromExtension() is used to get the mime-type from the extension. When 
the download
completes the helper fails to launch since it is re-evaluated using the 
(unrecognised)
mime-type but no fall-back on the extension is done.

This fix makes another call to GetFromType() after GetFromExtension()  to 
determine the
helper application and configure the mimeInfo object correctly (closes LP 
#239952 and
Mozilla bug # 455626).

Results of testing Mozilla bug #40 patch (v3).

Helper chooser dialog suggests to open with gedit.desktop. However, if 
Other... is selected from the list, and the file-browser dialog cancelled, 
Open With displays Text Editor (default).

If the OK button is pressed when gedit-desktop is displayed no error
is reported but no helper is launched. If the OK button is pressed
when Text Editor (default) is displayed, the Download Error dialog
appears and reports that the helper application can't be launched - in
other words, the same problem as reported by this bug originally.

.gz file
Content-Type: unknown/unknown

Helper choose dialig suggests to open firefox 3.0.1. However, if
Other... is selected from the list, and the file-browser dialog
cancelled, Open with displays Archive Manager (default).

If the OK button is pressed when either  firefox 3.0.1 or Archive
Manager (default) is displayed the Download Error dialog appears and
reports that the helper application can't be launched.

.pdf
Content-Type: application/pdf

Helper chooser dialog suggests to open Document Viewer (default).
Pressing the OK button launches the helper application (evince) as
expected.

So, in summary, the mozilla patch doesn't solve the issue and, if
anything, makes it more confusing.

2008-09-09 Thread TJ
This is a combination of two 'bugs'. I'll address the first in this
comment.

1. ubuntuforums.com web-server is misconfigured.

2.  xulrunner correctly figuring out the mime-type from the file-
extension but fails to set the variable that tells it which application
to launch, therefore failing when it checks if mDefaultApplication is
valid (not-null).

Web-server Content-Types response for attachments. For the following
file attachments it reports the wrong mime-types. For text, the elements
are reversed!:

.txt == text/plain
content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test4%20with%20space.txt

Content-Type: plain/text


.odt == application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text
content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test1.odt

Content-Type: unknown/unknown


.ods == application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet
content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test2.ods

Content-Type: unknown/unknown


.gz == application/x-gzip
content-disposition: attachment; 
filename*=ISO-8859-1''test4%20with%20space.txt.gz

Content-Type: unknown/unknown


PDF is correct though:

.pdf == application/pdf
content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test5.pdf

Content-Type: application/pdf

[Bug 239952] Re: firefox - the associated helper application does not exist

2008-09-09 Thread TJ
The second issue is that internal debugging shows xulrunner makes a
second attempt to get the mime-type from gnome-vfs when the first
(obviously based on the web-server Content-Type) fails. The second
attempt appears to be based on the file's extension (I shall trace that
aspect in my next debug session).

The problem is, having got the correct handler from gnome-vfs xulrunner
seems to forget/lose it and not use it later when it actually wants to
launch the handler.

Here's the report for a .gzip file. The web-server (ubuntuforums.org) 
mis-reports the Content-Type as:
content-disposition: attachment; 
filename*=ISO-8859-1''test4%20with%20space.txt.gz

[Bug 239952] Re: firefox - the associated helper application does not exist

2008-09-09 Thread TJ
The explanation for the apparent forgetfulness of xulrunner is that
there are two separate phases to the download process:

1. Populate the Helper Chooser Dialog list with mime-type helper applications
2. Launch with default mime-type helper

The solution would be to add functionality to
nsMIMEInfoUnix::LaunchDefaultWithFile() that does the same thing as step
1 follows in determining the default helper.

However, Aexander has pointed me to a patch that may rework this process
so the next step is to see if the patch has any positive effect on this
default-handling in the absense of a sensible Content-Type from the web-
server.

Here's the recent debug log showing the two phases.
