If building from the source then here is the replacement for help_help_cb() in 
vikwindow.c

Which should help reveal the problem:

static void help_help_cb ( GtkAction *a, VikWindow *vw )
{
#ifdef WINDOWS
  ShellExecute(NULL, "open", ""PACKAGE".pdf", NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
#else /* WINDOWS */
#if GTK_CHECK_VERSION (2, 14, 0)
  gchar *uri;
  uri = g_strdup_printf("ghelp:%s", PACKAGE);
  GError *error = NULL;
  gboolean ans = gtk_show_uri(NULL, uri, GDK_CURRENT_TIME, &error);
  if (ans)
    a_dialog_error_msg ( GTK_WINDOW(vw), _("The help system is not available.") 
);
  else if (error) {
    a_dialog_error_msg_extra ( GTK_WINDOW(vw), _("Help is not available 
because: %s."), error->message );
    g_error_free (error);
  }
  g_free(uri);
#else
  a_dialog_error_msg ( GTK_WINDOW(vw), "Help is not available in this build." 
); // Unlikely to happen so not going to bother with I8N
#endif
#endif /* WINDOWS */
}
