Description Naipaul Ojar 2013-03-26 14:46:09 UTC
Description of problem:
I have two issues with docky - this one [unable to launch caja] and another [unable to pin a specific app]. It has taken some time to ber sufficiently annoyed to raise these issues.

I have two file Managers pinned to docky, Nautilus and Caja. Only Nautilus launches from Docky properly. Caja seems to be launched, but fails to complete the launch. I am able to maximise and minimise once launched. New window also does not work.

I am able to launch the caja.desktop via the menu and from Gnome Favourites and I am able to remove and re-pin to docky.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
docky-2.1.4-1.fc18.x86_64

How reproducible:
Initial launch failure is very repeatable - I have many other apps launching correctly - its just caja that is giving grief ...

I even created a desktop launcher app on the Gnome Desktop, which works when I double-click on it, yet it will not work from docky.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start caja from menu or favourites or Gnome search and then pin to docky
2. Close caja application - indication that caja instance is active should be also gone
3. Invoke caja app, icon bounces from dock twice but no application is launched
4. Invoke caja app from Gnome Favourites and caja is launched
5. From docky, caja can be minimised, maximised and closed
  
Actual results:
Docky does not start application.

Expected results:
To be able to start the application defined in the launcher definition.

Comment 1 Naipaul Ojar 2013-03-29 16:26:40 UTC
I received an update to Caja, v1.5.5 and it now works properly from Docky.

The issue was a caja bug and not a docky bug. I do appologize for the submission.

This bug report can be closed.

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
