I use an installation without desktop environment (today).
And :
apt-get install xfce4 xfce4-goodies
startxfce4
apt-get install iceweasel
apt-get install chromium
I launch chromium -> Settings -> Make chromium the default browser.
(change nothing)
I launch iceweasel, Make iceweasel the default browser -> OK
On the shell :
chromium
(on the top of the window : Chromium isn't your default browser -> Set
as default (nothing change)
ATTENTION: default value of option force_s3tc_enable overridden by
environment.
Gkr-Message: secret service operation failed: The name
org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files
[876:901:0223/225859:ERROR:channel.cc(258)] RawChannel read error
(connection broken)
or
apt-get install lxde
apt-get install slim
startlxde
apt-get install chromium
chromium -> Settings -> Cannot determine or set the default browser (no
possible choice to make it)
apt-get install iceweasel
Make iceweasel the default browser -> OK
On the shell :
chromium
ATTENTION: default value of option force_s3tc_enable overridden by
environment.
[9174:9201:0223/225227:ERROR:channel.cc(258)] RawChannel read error
(connection broken)
or
with gnome desktop environment (choice make during the install programm)
Make iceweasel the default browser -> OK
apt-get install chromium
chromium -> Settings -> Make chromium the default browser. (change nothing)
On the shell :
chromium
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
ATTENTION: default value of option force_s3tc_enable overridden by
environment.

[1850:1875:0223/220543:ERROR:channel.cc(258)] RawChannel read error
(connection broken)
with galternatives, I have to add /usr/bin/chromium in www-browser but
lxde still say Cannot determine or set the default browser
with :
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/x-www-browser x-www-browser
/usr/bin/chromium 500
update-alternatives -config x-www-browser,
the answer is
There are 2 choices for the alternative x-www-browser (providing
/usr/bin/x-www-browser).
Sélection Chemin Priorité État
------------------------------------------------------------
* 0 /usr/bin/chromium 500 mode automatique
1 /usr/bin/chromium 500 mode manuel
2 /usr/bin/iceweasel 70 mode manuel
but when I lauch it, it ask me to set chromium the default browser.
Is that more clear ?
Whatever the desktop environment, it is impossible to do that.
Sorry for my bad english.
Thanx.

the message is clear.
It's a fresh Jessie's installation.
Actually, it's not clear at all. How are you trying to set the
default? What are the error messages if any? What other browsers do
you have installed that may be contending for the default?
Best wishes,
Mike
