nemo-dropbox context menu entries without functions

[orschiro]

Hello,

How can I trace back why the context menu entries do not provide any functionality?

• Browse on Dropbox Website does not open the browser
• Share link does nothing
• View previous version does nothing

I am using the latest nemo and nemo-dropbox build from the git repo.

Regards,

Robert

Something is not configured correctly - all of this is working fine for me. Try reinstalling?

That's what I already tried.

What functionality do you get when you click on the different entries?

[mtwebster]

Browse on website opens browser,

Share link puts the web link in my clipboard

View previous version also opens the browser.

Could you do this:

from terminal,

nemo --quit
nemo

Then try to click dropbox menu items. Pastebin any output you get.

The following messages are from opening nemo. Clicking on the context menu entries did not produce a single message:

[orschiro@thinkpad ~]$ nemo --quit

^C

I finally resolved the problem. It was related to the $BROWSER variable not being set.

export BROWSER=chromium now launches all context menu entries successfully in Chromium.
