Unable to start Konqueror or Home File Manager: kfmclie nt:ERROR :

[Matthew Huff]

Thanks for the reply..

I had played with different kfmclient commands without any luck, I have
pasted the results below.  The only way that I can launch Konqueror is by
running the 'konqueror' from console, because the default icon also uses the
kfmclient.  For whatever reason, I cannot use the kfmclient.


bash-2.05# kfmclient openURL 'url'
kio (KSycoca): Trying to open ksycoca from /var/tmp/kdecache-root/ksycoca
kio (KTrader): KServiceTypeProfile::offers(
application/octet-stream,KParts/ReadOnlyPart )
kio (KTrader): Returning 0 offers
Launched ok, pid = 4472
bash-2.05# kfmclient openURL 'http://www.google.com'

In console, type 'kfmclient --commands' to get a list of various options.
One to possibly try is kfmclient openURL http://www.somewhere.com which
should start Konq and open the website.

What happens if you just type 'konqueror' in the console. As you'll see
above, kfmclient just opens a window with a particular profile.
