Hi, I'm not on the list, so hope this can be submitted! Kindly also reply a copy to bk@goosee.com

I have been following Dillo for sometime, as a user, and recently upgraded to v0.8.0.

Problem is, when I click on a ftp url, the message:

"Error: can't start dpid daemon"

So, I tried to start dpid directly on the commandline:

# dpid # dpid.c:352: register_all: fatal error: -can't find the directory for dpis

So, is there something missing here? -- what is dpis? Appreciate any advice on this!

<q> ------------ Dpi programs ------------ These are installed by "make install". If you don't have root access, copy "dillo" and "dpid" to some directory in your path and install the dpis by running "./install-dpi-local" from the top directory (they will be installed under ~/.dillo). </q> (Extracted from the README file! ;-) Cheers Jorge.- PS: Now that you've tried manually, it'd be wise to assert there's no running dpid process when you retry: ps aux | grep dpi [kill dpid processes if present]
