Description Aram Agajanian 2013-12-17 22:16:30 UTC

Description of problem:

I have noticed that remote-viewer isn't getting automatically run when I try to bring up a virtual desktop from the RHEV User Portal with the Epiphany web browser.  Instead, the downloaded vv file is opened in gedit.

I have found that when I run the following command, the console.vv file gets opened in gedit instead of remote-viewer.

xdg-open console.vv


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-viewer-0.5.7-1.fc20.x86_64


How reproducible:  
Happens every time.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Download a console.vv file from the RHEV User Portal by attempting to open a SPICE console in Native Mode.
2.  Run the command "xdg-open console.vv" on the file that was just downloaded.


Actual results:
The console.vv file is opened with gedit.


Expected results:
The console.vv file should be opened with remote-viewer.

Comment 1 Aram Agajanian 2013-12-17 23:04:39 UTC

As was suggested on IRC, I ran the following command and the problem went away.

su -c "update-mime-database /usr/share/mime"
