When I try to run Dillo as user, I get this:
[bill@arch2 ~]$ dillo
dillo_dns_init: Here we go!
Cookies: Could not create file: /home/bill/.dillo/cookiesrc!
Segmentation fault
When I run as su, it works fine. It creates .dillo/cookiesrc in /root. I'm probably missing something stupid like group membership or permissions, but I can't tell what and I'd think this is a known issue. BTW, I'm running KDE.
Thanks,
Bill

Try running it as root or with sudo unless it's not your computer.

I'd think it would be a bad idea to use sudo to work around this. Running a web browser as root seems like too much of a risk.
Can you write to your home directory normally? If not it could be helpful if you post the output of "ls -l /home" If you can edit your home folder you might try creating a .dillo directory manually and copying the cookiecrc file from /root into there to see if it works that way.

You mean as opposed to running as superuser, Masterchief? I thought that was running as root. I tried this on another Arch box and it works as user. Odd thing. On the other machine, whether I run it as a user or su, I get an error at startup:
Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library
I need to investigate the differences. I've just updated both recently, but not the same days.

mcmillan, I assumed you meant my home directory and not /home literally. Tried your suggestion, but got the same result.
Bill
P.S. Are/were you really a Masterchief, Masterchief?
Offline
Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention, the Gdk warning sounds like /etc/locale.gen not set up. I confirmed that it is.

Thanks for the input. Gotta shut it down and go to bed. Work tomorrow. :cry: I'll check back before work or right after.
Thanks, again.

Actually I was interested in /home, since I wanted to see what kind of permissions the directory itself had, but based on the contents it seems like you've been able to create other files there without a problem. Your last sentence was a little unclear. You tried running dillo with .dillo/cookiesrc copied from /root into your user's home folder and it still didn't work? You might need to change the owner so that it's bill, nor root for it to work/

You need to set up your glibc locales. Uncomment the ones you want in /etc/locale.gen (both utf8 and iso-whatever) and run locale-gen as root.

I'm back. Yeah, I forgot to run locale-gen on the other box. Firefox was acting funny last night before I shut it down. Tonight, I couldn't bring up kde. It couldn't lock .Xauthority and another hidden file (don't remember which one). I figure there was a problem after my last update. When I couldn't log into the forum from my other box (what was up with that?), I figured help was a ways off, so I reinstalled Arch. I keep all my docs on a common partition to keep them accessible (triple booting). Everything, including Dillo, comes up and works now (so far). It's good to stay in practice.
Thanks for the help,
Bill
