With karmic, has anyone tried opening sftp:// Open Office documents ? When I double-click on .xls files on an sftp:// volume, I get:
Could not display "sftp://remote/file.xls";. There is no application installed for Excel spreadsheet files But the Properties / Open With for the file correctly lists Open Office spreadsheet. Also, if I right-click on the sftp://.xls file and choose open with other application...open office spreadsheet, then open office starts but does not load the file (just opens a new blank spreadsheet). I regularly opened sftp://.xls files in jaunty, but after upgrading to karmic I no longer can. I'm not sure if it is a Gnome change, or an Open Office change. Also, if I drag the sftp://.xls file to the local desktop, then the .xls can be opened by double-clicking. Should I file a new bug report, or re-open this bug which looks similar (but maybe not identical?) -- Openoffice won't open files using sftp:// in read-only mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
