The executable bit was the problem for me: after I did chmod 666 filenames, gnome Do worked OK and began opening the documents with openoffice. -- [karmic] gnome-do doesn’t open OOo-Documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 434859] Re: [karmic] gnome-do doesn ’t open OOo-Documents
Learnt from previous comments the solution. But I still think this is a usability bug, as there is no visible way to bind OOo documents to the open command. Also I would imagine that it should not be too hard to set it for such filetypes as default. -- [karmic] gnome-do doesn’t open OOo-Documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 434859] Re: [karmic] gnome-do doesn ’t open OOo-Documents
Don't put executable permission on your documents. Your document has the executable bit set, so it makes sense that we should let you try and run it. It could easily be a python or bash script. -- --Alex Launi -- [karmic] gnome-do doesn’t open OOo-Documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 434859] Re: [karmic] gnome-do doesn ’t open OOo-Documents
If I recall correctly, the executable bit gets set if you transfer that file to a FAT partition (like a flash drive). I forget why this happens.

Ahh, that’s it. It shows 'run' as default. If i change it to 'open' it works. But where are the default settings stored?

It will learn your common actions, so if you choose 'open' enough times that will become the default. ** Changed in: gnome-do (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- [karmic] gnome-do doesn’t open OOo-Documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 434859] Re: [karmic] gnome-do doesn ’t open OOo-Documents
Works fine for me. My guess is your xdg-open (part of the xdg-utils package) is not working. Type 'xdg-open foo.odt' and see if it works. If it does not, then the problem is with your XDG configuration and not with GNOME Do. -- [karmic] gnome-do doesn’t open OOo-Documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 434859] Re: [karmic] gnome-do doesn ’t open OOo-Documents
Thanks for your reply. 'xdg-open ~/foo.odt' works fine. I had the same problem in jaunty with the latest ppa version on a different machine. The universe package in jaunty isn’t affected though. So my guess would be that the problem is caused by gnome do or the files and folders plugin. But maybe i’m wrong and my OOo-documents just don’t love me anymore. -- [karmic] gnome-do doesn’t open OOo-Documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

What action are you performing? It may be defaulting to something like 'Copy' instead of 'Open'. After you type the filename, hit tab and itll show the action. -- [karmic] gnome-do doesn’t open OOo-Documents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434859 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
