[Spambayes] Installation Problems: no runnable browser, OR connection refused

[Joseph Dal Molin]

I have just installed Spambayes on Mandrake 9.0 and cannot get the
browser based configuration going. I have tried connecting direclty via
http://localhost:8880/ and get a connection refused reply AND I have
tried to launch the browser using both the pop3proxy.py script and doing
a self test of Dibbler.py...the following is what I get:

[root at montegrappa pop3proxy-spam-cache]# python /usr/bin/pop3
Loading database... Done.
User interface url is http://localhost:8880/
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/bin/pop3proxy.py", line 1253, in main
    Dibbler.run(launchBrowser=launchUI)

    get().open(url, 1)

    raise Error("could not locate runnable browser")
webbrowser.Error: could not locate runnable browser


[root at montegrappa spambayes]# python Dibbler.py

    get().open(url, 1)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/webbrowser.py", line 38, in get
    raise Error("could not locate runnable browser")
Error: could not locate runnable browser

Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks.

Joseph
