[freenet-support] Freenet Crash Upon Startup in Chrome/ Cannot Choose Firefox for Browser
Fresh after install, Freenet tries and fails to open in Chrome. My Wrapper log is included as an attatchment. I'd also like to change the default browser to Firefox but it only shows Chrome and IE (Which I don't have installed). -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Can you please open [0] the Preferences window, [1] set Debug logging to Debug, click Apply, try opening the browser with the tray app, and send the resulting FreenetTray.log? What versions of Chrome and Firefox do you have? The tray app requires Firefox 29 or later because it introduced a way to launch URLs in a new private tab. How did you uninstall IE? - Steve [0] https://github.com/freenet/wintray/blob/master/Screenshots/running_menu.png [1] https://github.com/freenet/wintray/blob/master/Screenshots/preferences.png signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe

I was having the same issue, I uninstalled chrome then ran the setup of freenet it then opened in Firefox, then reinstall chrome Firefox should be your freenet default I'm no expert but it worked for me, I'm guessing that lucario moore didn't uninstall ie prob just turned off in windows programs and features, I don't know how freenet would start if the feature is turned off though On Aug 6, 2015 5:39 PM, Lucario Moore werewolfgir...@yahoo.com wrote: Fresh after install, Freenet tries and fails to open in Chrome.

Just installed Firefox today and my chrome isn't showing any new updates. I uninstalled IE through the default control panel program uninstall, I think. It's been a while. Yes, it is, thanks. Between this and your wrapper.log I notice two things: 1. The ! in your username is preventing Freenet from finding resources it needs. 2. Freenet is really unstable and slow on your system. What happens if you move the Freenet installation (or reinstall it; whichever) to a path which does not contain !, like C:\Freenet? The ! shouldn't be a problem, so that's a bug, but until we can figure out how to fix it this might help. As far as the browser behavior the log doesn't include enough information for me to see what's going on. I'll have to add more logging and release a new version. Worth noting, though, is that Chrome reports success to the tray app, otherwise it would try other browsers. In what way does it fail to open in Chrome? - Steve signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe

I was going to try to get a screenshot of the text in said error tomorrow. In that case I think what's happening is Freenet launches, the tray app notes that it has launched, it starts the browser, then Freenet crashes shortly after because it can't find its files. Moving it to a folder without special characters in the path to it (like C:\Freenet ) should fix it. The next question is why your Firefox isn't detected. We can get more information once I'm able to add detailed logging on browser detection, but for the time being - are your comfortable looking at your registry to find where the Firefox installation is listed? The tray searches in a few locations already [0] but apparently we're missing some.
