This is a combination of two 'bugs'. I'll address the first in this comment.
1. ubuntuforums.com web-server is misconfigured. 2. xulrunner correctly figuring out the mime-type from the file- extension but fails to set the variable that tells it which application to launch, therefore failing when it checks if mDefaultApplication is valid (not-null). Web-server Content-Types response for attachments. For the following file attachments it reports the wrong mime-types. For text, the elements are reversed!: .txt == text/plain content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test4%20with%20space.txt Content-Type: plain/text .odt == application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test1.odt Content-Type: unknown/unknown .ods == application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test2.ods Content-Type: unknown/unknown .gz == application/x-gzip content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test4%20with%20space.txt.gz Content-Type: unknown/unknown PDF is correct though: .pdf == "application/pdf content-disposition: attachment; filename*=ISO-8859-1''test5.pdf Content-Type: application/pdf -- firefox - the associated helper application does not exist https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239952 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to epiphany-browser in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
