@Jordan: great, that solved it fro me as well, thanks. How did you work out that it might be that package? I've written to Cody A.W.

I receive this issue also.

Removing the 'exo-utils' package fixed this for me. It appears to be XCFE related.

I couldn't see anything in the ~/.xsession-errors file that looked related, so I renamed it and created the problem again. No new ~/.xsession-errors file was created.

[Bug 775640] Re: [dash] Could not display file.odt. The location is not a folder.
That is weird, I cannot observe this on my setup, all types of files open correctly from the dash, including odt documents. After reproducing the issue, could you please attach to this bug report the file ~/.xsession-errors ? Does this happen with all types of files, or just odt documents? Is it with only one specific document, or all of them? When that happens, does LibreOffice launch at all and then display this error, or do you get the error message even before LibreOffice launches? ** Changed in: unity-2d (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/775640 Title: [dash] Could not display file.odt.
