Operating system

  • Linux

Application

  • Desktop

using Joplin-1.0.93-x86_64.AppImage

using right-mouse menu "open..." on an attached file leads to following message output on stdout :

   xdg-open -- opens a file or URL in the user's preferred
   application

Synopsis

   xdg-open { file | URL }

   xdg-open { --help | --manual | --version }

Use 'man xdg-open' or 'xdg-open --manual' for additional info.

and no other activity (means "nothing happens")

issue happens with JPEG and PDF attachements

Electron opens the file in the default protocol handler, so I think it might be some configuration in the operating system.

If you do find how to fix it please post back here so I can add this to the faq.
