Konqueror: An error occurred while loading file; at bootup

JosephS · 01-22-2009, 06:23 PM

I get this message when I load the Desktop:

Quote:

An error occurred while loading file:///home/joe/Desktop/vim-movements.html:
The file or folder /home/joe/Desktop/vim-movements.html does not exist.

I deleted this file and now I get this message every time I bootup.

How do I stop this?

Thanks.

Place your hands on your hips, stare intensely, and say, "Bad computer! Bad! Go lay down!"

Before starting X, look in $HOME/Desktop. Look for a file named something like vim-movements.desktop. Delete the pesky file.

Not there? Try looking in $HOME/.kde/Autostart.

Not there? Try:

find /home/joe -type f -name 'vim-movements*'

K Menu -> Control Center -> KDE Components -> Session Manager -> Restore previous session

Then logout with an empty session.

Thanks for reply.

The Session Manager was already set to Restore previous session

I don't know what that means. I closed Konqueror every time before I logged out of KDE, but it still opens with that message.

I set: K Menu -> Control Center -> KDE Components -> Session Manager ->
start with an empty session.

I then started KDE a few times. When I set it back to Restore previous session Konqueror again opens with the error message.

Thanks.

Exit X/KDE. Delete all the files in $HOME/.kde/share/config/session/. That is where all the session information is stored.

How are you opening Konqueror? There might be something in the particular Konqueror profile you are using.

Did you check the entire directory using the find command to look for suspect files?

Thanks this got rid of the error message.

However, now the Konsole I was using is not restored: It opens with shell-Konsole instead of Linux-Konsole which I like better.

I wasn't opening Konqueror. It opened on it's own with the message.

Thanks

Open Konsole.
Select the Settings menu.
Select the Configure Konsole option.
Select the Session tab.
Select the Apply button.
Again select the Settings menu.
Select the Save as Default option.
Close Konsole.
Reopen.
