GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 54621
nautilus can't open oaf.
Last modified: 2008-09-25 07:15:45 UTC
Package: ORBit Severity: normal Version: 00.5.7-ximian.3 Synopsis: nautilus can't open oaf. Bugzilla-Product: ORBit Bugzilla-Component: general Description: I just upgraded to the newest ximian distribution. When I start up Nautilus, it complains that it cannot connect to the oaf server. I have no idea what this means really. I tried logging in. I would prefer not rebooting this computer. I can live without Nautilus. I'm sorry that I can't give you more information, but this is all I know. ------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2001-05-14 09:19 ------- Unknown version unspecified in product ORBit. Setting version to "0.5". The original reporter (bwhite@etnus.com) of this bug does not have an account here. Reassigning to the exporter, unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org. Reassigning to the default owner of the component, dick@ximian.com.
This isn't an ORBit bug. This is really a bug either against Nautilus (which lives at http://bugzilla.eazel.com), oaf, (ditto) or against Ximian's (http://bugzilla.ximian.com) distribution of them. I'm closing it here, but feel free to report it to one of those. ("notgnome" means "not living in gnome bugzilla") In the meantime, living without nautilus sounds like the best way to avoid rebooting if it's doing this. Not a good solution, though. :(
