Public bug reported:

Affects: deskbar-applet (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
When I try to launch epiphany by typing epiphany-browser, typing a web
address or opening a history item I get a dialogue box with the
following error:

Could not start GNOME Web Browser
Startup failed because of the following error:
Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-TWMXyTlyZf: Connection refused

The error dialogue has an epiphany-browser icon.

The file it mentions doesn't exist.

I only get the error when launching epiphany via deskbar. Launchers,
terminal (both epiphany and gnome-www-browser) and thunderbird all work
fine.

deskbar-applet 2.14.1.1-0ubuntu2
epiphany-browser 2.14.1-0ubuntu2
