Definitely enough people to confirm this bug. However, I think there's a duplicate triaged bug in one of the 3 firefox source packages (firefox, firefox-3.0, firefox-3.5). If someone could find it, I believe this might actually be fixed in Firefox 4.0. ** Tags added: likely-dup ** Changed in: f

I have got this a couple of times with PDF files. The file is downloaded, it can be found intact in the tmp directory, but it will not open with the default Document viewer. IIRC, explicitly selecting a viewer (/usr/bin/xpdf of /usr/bin/evince) opened the document fine. Right now I cannot reproduc

Thomas K - After looking at your link, I seem to recall seeing this issue once before when trying to download a PDF. I can't reproduce it though, but I found this link, which suggests deleting download history using Tools -> Clear Private Data when you experience problems downloading files: http:/

Are there any other users on the system? If another user already has that file name under /tmp, then you'd probably get a similar error due to the sticky bit on /tmp. Or have you set up Apparmor for Firefox by any chance? I couldn't think of any other reason why you'd get the error. If you had no

It sounds like you do not have write access to the /tmp directory, for some reason... Does this still happen after a reboot? If so, can you go to a command line, then do: "cd /" (change to the root directory), "ls -ltrh" (make a detailed list of what's in that directory), and post the result here
