Vidalia Onion Router Isn't Opening

[Linuxis]

I installed Vidalia from Appcafe and tried opening it. Nothing happened.
I tried opening Tor from terminal and it said that it opened successfully however Vidalia absolutely will not open.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

That is because it is looking for

/usr/pbi/tor-amd64/.sbin/vidalia

which doesn't exist. I think the desktop shortcut may have been forgotten from a previous version. The PBI itself just says "Tor" and nothing about Vidalia.

Perhaps someone can look into it and:
a) remove the unused Vidalia desktop shortcut
b) add Vidalia to the Tor PBI

You can also use the TorK PBI, I have tested it and it works.

Hope that clears things up.

Tested:
PC-BSD 9.0-RC2 AMD64
Tor 0.2.2.34 PBI

I have resolved the issue with the Tor PBI and Vidalia. You need to rename the desktop shortcut to point to:

/usr/pbi/tor-amd64/bin/vidalia

Cheers.

Thank you!

I hope future versions of Vidalia will work right away.

Kris said it's already fixed in the SVN. Only a matter of time now
