Description nameles 2004-06-30 02:39:22 UTC 
Whe I launch through the Gnome menu I get:
Bonobo couldn't locate the GNOME_Epiphany_Automation.server file. You can use
bonobo-activation-sysconf to configure the search path for bonobo server files.

When I launch from a command prompt I get:
(epiphany:8908): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path:
"qtpixmap",

Looks like misconfiguration on your part. Do what the message says.
Comment 2 Mark McLoughlin 2004-09-28 09:46:56 UTC 
Turns out this sometimes happens because of a bug in bonobo-activation-server if
you try and launch epiphany just after installing. See:

Comment 3 Mark McLoughlin 2004-09-28 09:49:12 UTC 
Fixed on HEAD:

2004-09-28  Mark McLoughlin  <mark@skynet.ie>

        Fixes problem with running epiphany immediately after
        install it - bug #145169.

        * activation-server/object-directory-corba.c:
        (od_register_runtime_server_info): re-scan the server info
        directories when registering a server rather than only
        when activating a server.
