    Error - Dolphin file manager [Solved]

    Hi All,

    I am using Kubuntu 8.04 version.

    Everytime when I try to open a html or xml files by double clicking in Dolphin file manager, the following error screen appears. Why it is so? How can I solve the problem?

    The desktop entry file
    /usr/share/apps/d3lphin/servicemenus/amarok_addaspodcast.desktop
    has an invalid menu entry
    addAsPodcast.

    Regards,
    Srikrishnan

      Hi,

      Thanks for your reply.

      But I am new to Linux. So I am unable to understand.

      May you help me, what is the meaning for :

      "To fix this problem temporary, just copy the service menu:"

      what is meant by "service menu"?

      Regards,
      Srikrishnan

        Creating Konqueror Service Menus
        http://developer.kde.org/documentati...vicemenus.html
        In KDE-speak a "servicemenu" is a special entry that appears in Konqueror's (or Dolphin's) context menu depending on the file(s) that are selected. You may have seen them in action without even knowing it. For instance, if you have the KDE file archive utility "ark" installed you will see a menu entry to "Extract here..." whenever you right click on a tarball or zip file. The option to "Extract here..." is a servicemenu.

        Creating new servicemenus is very simple, requiring nothing more than an idea and a text editor. You don't have to be a programmer or a KDE wizard to make them.

        => .desktop files in the:
        KDE 3.5.X

        System wide (for all users) service menus:
        Konqueror: /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/
        Dolphin: /usr/share/apps/dolphin/servicemenus/
        D3lphin: /usr/share/apps/d3lphin/servicemenus/

        Home folder (for a user) service menus:
        Konqueror: ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/
        Dolphin: ~/.kde/share/apps/dolphin/servicemenus/
        D3lphin: ~/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/servicemenus/
