Hope that helps

I've got the same problem, so I went back and did exactly as you said here plus read that blog page for the umpteenth time. Still can't make it work. In mine it seems to be a Firefox problem. Here's the error message I'm getting:

Failed to execute child process "/usr/lib/firefox-3.5/firefox" (Permission denied)

I dug through the settings in Firefox but didn't have any luck finding a solution.

Have you got any other suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi Bozo,

Thanks for asking. Not sure about that specific Firefox error message.

If you haven't already perhaps cut and pasting it into google may produce a solution.

That being said, in regard to links in pdf issue...Somebody on The Warrior Forum had also had this issue. He eventually got his resolved.

There are also other people providing their suggestions and workarounds.

Check this link to see how he resolved this issue.

Thanks, Duane. It is now working on a Vista machine with IE, but not on an Ubuntu machine with Firefox. Maybe a good whine will help, I'll try that.

It was a local problem with my machine. I was using the Ubuntu default pdf reader, and now I have the real Adobe Reader.

Links work! Yea!

Thanks Duane, you helped push me to find the problem.
