Telegram Desktop-shared link- No such file or directory

#1 Post by korbielow »

Hello!
When I press on shared link in Telegram destop ver 1.3.8 I receive that message
/home/rafal/.local/share/TelegramDesktop/http:/wp.pl: No such file or directory
And I'm not able to open it. I need to copy & paste manualy instead.
I use Debian - buster/sid + LXDE.
How to fix it ?

You need to explain how you installed telegram-desktop. Debian policy doesn't let packagers put stuff in /usr/local, so that points to an outside version that might not be Debian-compatible.

I just downloaded from https://desktop.telegram.org/ and unpacked it to /opt/Telegram/.
But it worked fine.Don't know what's happened.
My wife has the same Debian version and she has no problems with it.

What do you mean by shared link?

just a link you receive in a message?

if so, on my laptop when i click a link it opens. but on the desktop i get a similar problem to you.

both running sid. i'll try to see what the differences are between the two.

telegram-desktop is packaged for Debian and in the repos. I have no problem opening links in Sid from the latest Sid version. I suggest to remove the downloaded version and install the repo version.

When I install it from repo problem still exists.
I checked that when I change to different graphical envoriment for example xfce the issue does not exists.
So there must be some problem in LXDE.

tried various links from group chats and they opened in chrome my default browser

op can you perhaps provide update-alternatives --display x-www-browser
