firstclass client 9.1 -- cannot load winebrowser

Post by graysky »

I have successfully installed and am running the win32 version of firstclass 9.106 client on wine 1.0.1 (lenny amd64). My problem occurs when the client attempts to open an html attachment:

Code: Select all

err:winebrowser:get_url_from_dde Unabled to retrieve URL from string L"\""
err:winebrowser:wmain Usage: winebrowser URL
I'm not too sure how to handle this and would appreciate your suggestions.

Thanks!

This is a long known but not yet fixed problem. As a workaround add "%1" to the winebrowser's command line in registry:

Code: Select all

[HKCR\htmlfile\shell\open\command]
@=C:\windows\system32\winebrowser.exe "%1"

Thanks for the reply... don't laugh at me, but I looked in each of the .reg files in my ~/.wine (system.reg userdef.reg user.reg) but couldn't find the key you pointed out to me. I suspect I'm looking in the wrong places.

Got it... didn't realize I had that option :)

BTW, this works great - thanks!
