Description Tim Winselmann CLA 2011-03-24 10:26:46 EDT
1. Jubula/GUIdancer installed on one of our vms (Linux Red Hat Enterprise) has got wrong paths for the AUT Agent. It is not located under "<Install Dir>/server" like windows or centos5 but directly in the "<Install Dir>".

2. The "Stop Aut Agent" and "Start Aut Agent" links are in the Linux launch toolbar. But the link to the application Jubula/GUIdancer is missing. It would be nice, if their would be one.

Please check whether this issues may lead to any incorrect behavior - or whether it's done on purpose (install4j reasons).
Comment 2 Tim Winselmann CLA 2011-03-29 08:56:18 EDT
I did not describe the first issue correctly:
The "autagent" and "stopautagent" files are in the correct directory "<Install Dir>/server". But there are two additional links right in the "<Install Dir>" directory named "Start AUT Agent" and "Stop AUT Agent".

The second issue is as I described it.
Comment 3 Zeb Ford-Reitz CLA 2011-03-29 12:14:30 EDT
Since the necessary scripts (autagent and stopautagent) are indeed present, I don't see this causing any problems beyond unnecessary files being created in the installation directory.

The additional files are ".desktop" files (http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/). I don't understand why they are being created in the installation directory, but I can't imagine that their existence causes any problems other than a few hundred bytes of wasted disk space.

Admittedly, this is something that we should fix, but I don't think the priority for it is very high at the moment.

The second point is also valid: Jubula should appear in the Application Menu. However, I think this also doesn't have a high priority at the moment.

Oh, and for those interested in the spec for adding entries to the Application Menu: http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/menu-spec-latest.html

Resetting assignee to default because I do not plan on addressing this bug in the near future.
Comment 6 Alexandra Schladebeck CLA 2013-12-13 08:58:11 EST
I think I can live with this.
