Title: [SOLVED] X: "No application is registered as handling this file" / Places not wo
Post by: raimund on April 18, 2012, 12:17:57 PM
Regards to: Ploplinux 4.2.1 with X-Support

It is not possible to open files by just clicking on it in Nautilus. Also the GNOME places menu doesn't work.

The error messages are:
Could not open location 'file://' (or similar).
No application is registered as handling this file


The reason is an empty mimecache.info in /opt/share/applications/
Since /opt is a readonly filesystem this problem must corrected in the Image and cn't solved at boot time.

Workaround:

You need a running linux with following programs installed:
This may be the ploplinux system itself (with X support).


Thats all.

Best regards,
Raimund
