File Manager Problem

Stoicho Valkov — Fri, 07 Mar 2003 08:00:11 GMT

When I start File Manager from the icon it opens, but the icons inside aren't active. When click on one of them generates error just like:
There are no actions defined for UNKNOWN.

When File Manager is started by command /usr/dt/bin/dtfile everything is OK.

I tried it, but in the new CDE session, doesn't appear Front Panel on the desktop.

Qus : please run dr_dt and examine the output.

the users $HOME or the base dir in dtfile ... is it nfs mounted by any chance ?

also how large are the files within this dir and what file extensions do they have eg .txt,.db an ll would suffice.

O/S ?

Talk about every files and directories. File Manager is opened in $HOME of the user which is login in and don't have possibility to walk up and down in directory tree.

What is this dr_dt. I don't find it.

The script /usr/contrib/bin/X11/dr_dt ran normally without errors. Trere are some warnings but not match with dtfile.
All of directories are vxfs file system and they are mounted on one hard disk.
