GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 142779
Unable to run scripts that have associated program
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Description of Problem: If I edit the mimetype for bash scripts to have an application in the "open with" menu they no longer can be run by doubleclicking them. Even if the association is removed from the menu. This seems to override the option "run executable textfiles" in Nautilus preferences. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Select a script 2. Choose "open with" -> "a program" 3. click the button in the "filetypes and programs" area 4. Add an association in the mime window that pops up 5. Change the status for the new association to, "not in menu" 6. Doubble click the script. Actual Results: The script file is opened in the associated program Expected Results: The script to run How often does this happen? Always
