      My bookmarks don’t work in Dillo under antiX-17_x64-full

      They do work on the machine I loaded with Xfce from antiX-17_x64-core

      What happens is they seem to save, but they don’t really. Then when you try to click the show bookmarks button, it looks like its going to bring them up but never does.

      I copied all the code from the machine that worked via tar/zip and put it on one of the machines where it doesn’t work, but it still has the same problem.

      When I run it from a terminal and click show bookmarks, on the terminal window it says Nav_open_url: new url=’dpi:/bm/’ but the bookmark file never gets displayed.

      Could someone else please see if their dillow bookmarks work on their machine with the same antiX-17_x64-full version? I wounder if its due to upgrades I installed…

        Might be a permissions issue? Maybe check dillo properties. Just a stab in the dark

        Damn. I just checked Dillo on my 64 bit laptop. Bookmarks on taskbar won’t even open bookmarks.

        $ apt-cache policy dillo
        dillo:
          Installed: 3.0.5-3
          Candidate: 3.0.5-3
          Version table:
         *** 3.0.5-3 500
                500 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian stretch/main amd64 Packages
                100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
             3.0.4.1-2 500
                500 http://repo.antixlinux.com/stretch stretch/main amd64 Packages
        

        Trouble shooting applications can be such a PITA.

          Hmmmm, it can’t Find the files, but it worked from a terminal under root….

          Where to look next?

          I am thinking of having Dillo as my default browser so my searches automatically sun with it, and using the big browsers only for fancy apps that need them…

            Looks like the problem might be fixed but 3.1 was never released.

              Dillo 3.0.5-4 from debian-buster on antix-testing is running here with working bookmarks.

                I’ll see if the testing version packages for stretch and then upload it to our stretch repo

                Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

                antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

                  Hmm, I just updated to the buster Dillo 3.0.5-4 on antix17 stretch, no bookmarks are working. Must be another problem.

                  Like BobC mentioned with gksudo dillo the bookmarks are working.

                      Running dillo as user. The bold part is hitting the bookmarks button. Then the red stop button next. Then the bookmarks button again. You can compare the bookmarks line from my root run vs a user run.

                        Solved this here by doing
                        sudo apt-get remove --purge dillo

                        Then also deleting the hidden .dillo folder in home

                        then
                        sudo apt-get clean
                        rebooted, updated
                        installed dillo again, normal stable version
                        Bookmarks are working now.If you want to keep your old bookmarks, maybe make a backup of the bm.txt file in the hidden .dillo folder in home.
                        I was looking where the files are different between the working testing-box and the non working antix17, till I got the feeling turning in circles very fast,
                        and didn’t find anything.So I choosed this way.
