# Give permisson of execution
chmod a+o+x "$HOME/.local/share/applications/urlpol.desktop"

# Update the mime database , for appear in the asociations of mime files
update-mime-database $MIMESC

 

Well , i dont know why this dont work :

$ /usr/share/playonlinux/bash/playonlinux-url_handler playonlinux://www.playonlinux.com/repository/download.php?id=2542

 

and this wont work too :

 

$ /usr/share/playonlinux/playonlinux-url_handler playonlinux://www.playonlinux.com/repository/download.php?id=2542  File "/usr/share/playonlinux/python/wrapper.py", line 28
    print "ERROR ! Please define POL_OS environment var first."
                                                              ^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'

 

and well , how i can make the "playonlinux" protocol works for install scripts from the website ???

 

i think need a better script for "playonlinux-url_handler" , because its not working for me

 

if someone found a solution for this , please write me :D , via Private Message or Email , please.

If someone finds a solution, wouldn't it be much better to have them just post in the forums so everyone can benefit? :)

The problem comes from the fact that you are running the urlhandler with python3, which is not supported by PlayOnLinux v4.

We need to add the same mechanism as in playonlinux script

Thank you for your answers :) , yes its better put in the forum , but i wanna try if really works XD , and not add too much messages if some user tell me works for his , but if i try and dont work for me , i can try to solve begin with the solution of his user XD

 

Ok then i edit the file :

 

sudo nano /usr/share/playonlinux/playonlinux-url_handler

 

and change the line :

exec python "$CURDIR/python/wrapper.py" "$CURDIR/bash/$(basename "$0")" "$@"

To

exec python2 "$CURDIR/python/wrapper.py" "$CURDIR/bash/$(basename "$0")" "$@"

 

and now works for me , someone can test if works too ???

Why in the next version of PlayOn , your include "python2" and "python3" inside the  "PlayOn" , for not use the system python . and make for a time the protocol works ???

 

You can add another tools inside POL , like 7z , i prefer you include all tools , need by the application :D

I thought POL is dropping Python support and moving to JAVA. something that I am not crazy about but they are the devs.

This is not the thread to voice that in. ;) If you have objections, please do let us know. We really want as much legit, technical feedback from the community as we can get (though, no trolls, please. lol.):
