Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

Dear All,

I tried to search before I post and the only solution I found is to reinstall microb, but this faild to solve the problem.

when I try to open any web site, the browser tries to connect but stay on the white screen for ever.

tryied to reboot, reinstall, killall, but still nothing.

I'm on PR1.3 CSSU 16.8

last things installed was Horizontall Call, and QRadio.

it's not a network problem as firefox and mail and every other thing works fine.

please help.

Thank you.

When you refer to firefox and email, are you referring them when you use those programs outside N900? (i.e. you ran them on computer/laptop/etc). If so you might want to check /etc/resolv.conf entries in N900 to see if it has:

Thanks, for your reply, but no, I'm talking about firefox and mail from within the N900 itself.

and I do can nslookup on names and domains.

Thank you again.

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

and so Horizontal Call && QRadio were installed last before you had this microb issue? I'm guessing one of those programs would be the culprit then.

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

I've uninstalled them but still no luck :(

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

I used to have the some-what the same problem,

Do you use wifi or Network?

what is your Emails refesh interval?

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

I use both, WiFi and Network.

I refresh mail manually.

but mail is working I just came accross it as an example of an application that uses the internet.

Thank you,

Whenever I open WEB application, if i select any webpage from the list, i get the same white screen, but den I TAP the address bar, and hit enter again, and if u notice the size of the address bar increases after dat, and the website opens..
Well have u tried this?

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

i fixed same problem whid:

root
apt-get --reinstall install osso-browser

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

The other thing is that sometimes when certain program is installed, they have config file/s and those config file/s may still remain. I guess one way to see these (though you may see others as well) is by:
Apart from that I really don't have much of other clue, it could be a really nasty case that one of those programs did make a change within microb and that change was not reversed when the program was removed.

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

already tried this but no luck :(

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

I've just tried this but also no luck :(

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

I'm sorry i didn't get that, sholud I look for the brouser configuration files or the other installed applications?

also just now tried to clear private data from the browsers options menu, it gave me an error that "Some Cach items are in use. Unable to delete" any idea?

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

@KimZ: can you open addon window?

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

:confused: No, I guess this means that you got it and will tell me how to solve it in your next post ;)

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

if you want you can try to autoremove osso-browser.
IMPORTANT: take note of all dependancies that you remove
after reinstall all

i have fixed in this way.

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

sorry
.......in XTERM

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

I've just did autoremove osso-browser, it didn't remove any dependancies and i still can open the browser window with the same problem without reinstalling osso-browser, is that correct? I thought the browser will desapear untill i reinstall!!!

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

reinstalled after autoremove but still no luck :(

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

now install osso-browser

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

what is autoremove? Surely "apt-get remove" (or purge) is needed unless I have missed something.

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

I already did

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

we mean "apt-get autoremove" that removes any unneeded dependancies along with the package.

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
 

yes we mean 'apt-get autoremove'.

now try :
root
apt-get install osso- browser

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.

Re: Default web browser problem: can't open any thing always white screen.
