Hi,
I also encounter that error, actually when I click on any link almost anywhere,
firefox does not start, and no error presents. But I have another fedora 8 on
the same system, whith the same user profile location, and when I click any link
on thunderbird, I get "Error showing url: There was an error launching the
default action command associated with this location."

I think this should be just a setting somewhere, but don't know where.

Best,
adrin.

I am set on Italian.

It was working fine until latest updates of last night. And I suppose that I
should not work on any settings (Firefox seems to be working..)

fully ack with cs_CZ locale. Also tried with en_IE.UTF-8 and C locale, both
failed in the same way.

Comment 4 antonio montagnani 2008-02-12 22:12:29 UTC

I understand that in some updates, in System/Preferences/Personal/Preferred
applications, setting for Web browser was garbled. So if you switch to Firefox
in that screen, everything is o.k. again.

Comment 5 Matěj Cepl 2008-02-13 20:22:51 UTC

Confirming when fixing Gnome settings of Preferred applications, TB runs Firefox
correctly. Switching component to Firefox, guys, could you check that we are not
screwing up users' settings, please?

I guess that it can be closed
