Hello,
I had a similar error (bug 757587) related to smb:/// , i'll write some
hints do diagnose "TypeError: could not parse URI".
If you encounter an error like "TypeError: could not parse URI" and more
specifically when it's related to "set_widget_initial_values" for the
"selected-folder" like the traceback below...
> File "/usr/bin/soundconverter", line 1765, in set_widget_initial_values
> uri = filename_to_uri(self.get_string('selected-folder'))
> File "/usr/bin/soundconverter", line 358, in filename_to_uri
> filename = str(gnomevfs.URI(filename))
> TypeError: could not parse URI
The self.get_string("selected-folder") above is meant to retrieve the
destination directory. You can fetch the location using this command:
gconftool --get /apps/SoundConverter/selected-folder
The error "TypeError: could not parse URI" means that gnomevfs can't
handle that "URI" (i.e file location).
python -c 'import gnomevfs ; print gnomevfs.URI("file:///tmp")'
should work (i.e print "file:///tmp")
python -c 'import gnomevfs ; print gnomevfs.URI("b0rken:///tmp")'
should fail (i.e print "TypeError: could not parse URI")
So to further diagnose your problem, you should run the python command
above with the URI retrieved by gconftool above !
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Franklin
