Re: Help Documents not firing on El Capitan (was Re: Wiki Landing Page)

I’m using 2.6.16 as well. I don’t think it has ever worked for me though. (not 
sure exactly which version I started on when I moved to Mac, probably somewhere 
around 2.6.12 or so.)

I completely agree that it should work and I think it strange that it does for 
me and not for you. I wonder if there’s some obscure defaults setting that 
either blocks or allows it.

There won’t be anything in the logs, and since it’s just pushing the URI off to 
the default browser I’m not sure that GnuCash will even know whether it 
succeeds or fails. Something might show up in Console but I wouldn’t bet on it.

 Seems pretty unlikely that a download error could lose the documentation 
 and still have a valid signature. More likely your default browser is 
 rejecting the page load signal for some reason. Eh, what locale do you 
 use? It occurs to me that I might have messed up so that it works only

Help Documents not firing on El Capitan (was Re: Wiki Landing Page)

2017-06-14 Thread Adrien Monteleone 
Tested everything. Also tested with default browser as Safari, Chromium-canary, 
Opera, Vivaldi, and Firefox Developer Edition.

Nothing happens when I click anything in the help menu or any context help 
buttons.

I do see that there are links in the GnuCash directory pointing to Help & the 
Guide.

Personally, it’s not a big deal for me because I know where to find those docs 
already online, but those menu entries and buttons should work.

Should I expect to find something in the logs when those are fired? or if they 
fail?
