[Bug 1168915] Re: Visit Homepage link is non-functional
The issue is still occuring for me as well. Running Linux Mint 19.2 with the Vivaldi browser as standard, clicking the "Visit Homepage" button does nothing. Copying the link with right click on the other hand works. Also doesn't work if Vivaldi is already open. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1168915 Title: Visit Homepage link is non-functional To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/1168915/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

In Mint Mate 19.1, problem still exists. "Visit Homepage" links *are* colored and underlined, but when you click on them you get error box "Profile Missing Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." If your firefox is already running before you run synaptic, then the problem doesn't occur. That is a workaround but not a fix.

So what happens when Synaptic clicks on a link? # change user to root sudo su # try to launch any WebBrowser exo-open --launch WebBrowser root@Computer:~# Running Firefox as root in a regular user's session is not supported. ($XAUTHORITY is /home/$USER/.Xauthority which is owned by insert_real_username_here.) It doesn't work because screen access is not allowed. You can go through the trouble of gaining access to .Xauthority, a pain but possible, OR # launch application with correct user, NOT root. Here's a link from Synaptic for 2048 game. su -c 'exo-open --launch WebBrowser "https://github.com/xiaoyong/2048-Qt";' insert_real_username_here That works. It will open a new browser or open an existing browser if it is the Default. Don't delay, fix today. Of course it's a bit more complex cause you need to check $SUDO_USER if running with [ $UID -eq 0 ] and translate that to the appropriate code language. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1168915 Title: Visit Homepage link is non-functional To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/1168915/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Similar problem in Mint 17.x, only instead of doing nothing it puts up an error box that says "Failed to execute default Web Browser. Input/output error."

[Bug 1168915] Re: Visit Homepage link is non-functional
This appears to be caused by the fact that synaptic usually insists on opening as root. If I open synaptic from the menu it requires that I enter my admin password. The Visit Homepage link is there but does nothing. I can drag it to my open browser (as suggested above) where it works. When I open synaptic from a terminal it opens in user mode rather than root mode. The link then works fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1168915 Title: Visit Homepage link is non-functional To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+bug/1168915/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
