#37592 new defect
digikam @2.9.0 flickr module cannot authenticate
Reported by: | pb.mosca@… | Owned by: | jgosmann (Jan Gosmann) |
---|---|---|---|
Priority: | Normal | Milestone: | |
Component: | ports | Version: | 2.1.2 |
Keywords: | Cc: | cgilles (HumanDynamo) | |
Port: | digikam |
Description
The flickr exporter module of digikam cannot work on Mac OS X because the authentication process is broken: when launching for the first time the module, it tries to get an authorization token from flickr by opening a Web navigator. Unfortunately, on OS X, KWrite is opened instead of a Web browser.

Seems like you have a strange KDE default browser setting. Try do edit ~/Library/Preferences/KDE/share/config/kdeglobals and look for the section [General]. Is there a line starting with BrowserApplication and if yes, what does it say? Try do replace it with:
BrowserApplication[$e]=!/Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/konqueror.app/Contents/MacOS/konqueror
If such a line does not exist, append
[General] BrowserApplication[$e]=!/Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/konqueror.app/Contents/MacOS/konqueror
to the file. Does that solve the problem?

I do not have konqueror installed and I cannot install konqueror (port search konqueror returns nothing).
However, thank you for pointing me out to this file, I did not know about it. I set the BrowserApplication variable to
BrowserApplication[$e]=!/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox
And it works (however, you have to quit Firefox if it is already launched, otherwise it complains about an already running instance of Firefox).

konqueror is part of kde4-baseapps. Maybe I should make that a dependency of digikam.
If you want to use Firefox it might also work with an already launched Firefox if you use
BrowserApplication[$e]=!open /Applications/Firefox.app

Replying to jan@…:

BrowserApplication[$e]=!open /Applications/Firefox.app
Indeed, thanks!
