elinks error

[prem1er]

Just installed elinks with apt-get and I'm getting this error. Does anyone have a fix?

ERROR at /build/buildd/elinks-0.12~pre2.dfsg0/src/main/interlink.c:329: The call to bind() failed: 13 (Permission denied)

I am getting the same error in ubuntu 9.10 64bit

~$ elinks

Elinks will eventually work after about 3-4 seconds of getting these error messages. The really odd thing is that it works just fine for some of the accounts on my system, but others get these errors.

Fixed the problem. I must have done a sudo elinks on my admin account and it messed up the permissions of the .elinks folder in my home dir.

to fix... delete or chown the .elinks folder in your home space.

Chown...

sudo chown -R user_name:user_name /home/user_name/.elinks

Delete...

sudo rm -rf /home/user_name/.elinks
