Hello-
I have installed the latest AGTk (checked out from the CVS) under Linux
and can connect to the default venue now. The problem is whenever I right
clicked on the Open option of the SharedApp, a small dialog was popped up
saying "You have nothing configured to open this service". If I double
clicked on the SharedApp, the terminal reports:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/home/ziru/checkout/AccessGrid/AccessGrid/VenueClientUIClasses.py", line
1951, in OnDoubleClick
openCmd = appdb.GetCommandLine(item.mimeType, 'Open')
File "/home/ziru/checkout/AccessGrid/AccessGrid/AppDb.py", line 322, in
GetCommandLine
key = self.defaultSeparator.join([mimeType, pCmd])
TypeError: sequence item 1: expected string, NoneType found
It seems that the AppDb has not been configured to have enough information
to lauch the shareapps. How should I deal with it?
I know SharedApps like SharedBrowser or SharedPresentation will make use
of the win.com interface which may not be provided under Linux. That
should not be a problem if we substitute with one without using such
components. Right?
If so, do I need to put a right mailcap file under /etc? I remembered
from version 2.1.1, shared apps do not need the mailcap file configured,
right?
Thanks.
