Posted: Mon Apr 05, 2004 4:05 am Post subject: Launch URL in browser |
|
I know this is probably not strictly NO/J-related.
Has anyone succeded in launching URLs linked in documents in a Mac OS X browser?
I'v tried setting the HTTP helper to:
/Applications/path/to/Camino/Camino.app
But nothing happens when I click a link. |

i tried this from writer (0.8.2) and it worked just fine. I didn't change any of the settings in the options menu in Neo/J
for 'external programs' and HTTP it says
/Applications/NeoOfficeJ.app/Contents/MacOS/nswrapper
(actually it says this for all four boxes)
and when i click the link, the default in OSX runs.

Stupid me! I recently moved the NO/J.app and didn't notice there was the old wrong path in the options, so I started trying to launch directly the browser.
Thanks. |

If you moved NeoJ, I suspect that many other options are broken. The underlying OpenOffice.org 1.0.3 configuration files have lots of paths stored in them and moving NeoJ will break most of them. That is why NeoJ has an installer: to check that all those paths are valid in the first place.

I like to keep the /Applications folder only for the System installed apps. So I usually moves everything into a sub-subfolder and generally don't like that an app doesn't allow me to choose my favourite path.
Patrick, I looked at the postflight script and it doesn't seem too hard to change in order to allow a custom installation folder. |

If you are savvy enough to read (and edit) the postflight script, then you should have no problem.
Note, however, that the underlying OOo code likes to drop all sorts of absolute paths in your user configuration files (in ~/Library/NeoOfficeJ) so if you run NeoJ and then move it, you will need to update those paths as well.
