[Solved] exo-open --launch WebBrowser %u or %U

this command brings up the follow:
[guest@localhost ~]$ exo-open --launch WebBrowser %u
[guest@localhost ~]$
(process:8017): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed
Error: Failed to send command: 500 command not parseable

[guest@localhost ~]$
and firefox as preferred Webbrowser application starts not;

the same with opera or vivaldi starts the application, but brings the follow:
with Opera and also with vivaldi
[guest@localhost ~]$ exo-open --launch WebBrowser %u
[guest@localhost ~]$ libGL error: open uki failed (Operation not permitted)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering

[guest@localhost ~]$

the %u or %U brings the same results

Who knowing solutions?

Re: [Solved] exo-open --launch WebBrowser %u or %U

Same here, with or without %u/U
$ exo-open --launch WebBrowser
(process:9038): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed

It look like a firefox issue.
%u is supposed to be an url, so:

exo-open --launch WebBrowser www.domain.net

should works. Try it with qupzilla, there is no errors.

  [guest@localhost ~]$ exo-open --launch WebBrowser %U
[guest@localhost ~]$
(process:11558): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed
Error: Failed to send command: 500 command not parseable

[guest@localhost ~]$

but fi i clicking the Launcher in Panel, then a new and clean firefox-window comes up....    hrrr

[guest@localhost ~]$ exo-open www.qua-it.org &
[1] 23356
[guest@localhost ~]$ libGL error: open uki failed (Operation not permitted)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering

[1]+  Done                    exo-open www.qua-it.org
[guest@localhost ~]$

and with firefox:
[guest@localhost ~]$ exo-open www.qua-it.org &
[1] 23025
[guest@localhost ~]$
(process:23032): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed

Re: [Solved] exo-open --launch WebBrowser %u or %U

What version of Firefox?

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs24/+bug/1425972

The above is the first result one gets from typing

"exo-open" error

into a Google search-box, lol.

Re: [Solved] exo-open --launch WebBrowser %u or %U

Hmm... Getting my el-cheapo Bluetooth speaker to work with my laptop in two minutes instead of however long it would have taken to create a thread, get a reply, post the information that was asked for in that reply, getting the next reply, providing the additional information that was requested and trying the first suggestion, post that the suggestion failed to work, getting a reply which asked for further information, posting that information, getting a reply that contained another solution, trying that and seeing that it worked (and, of course, posting a final message announcing that and thanking the person that helped plus adding a [SOLVED] tag to the thread title) - as an example.  Now, if I'd only kept that link, lol...

BtW, does it look like the bug-report that I posted a link to might have some bearing on the OP's issue? I was hesitant to post it because I don't really have a clue (that could often be taken as a general statement ).

I had an inkling, yes. But, this being the Internet and all... "One never knows, do one?" (-Fats Waller)
