Cannot open file in stacks AWN

[Evelyn]

I can drag and drop into stacks, but when I'm in the stack I can't open those files/folders when I click on it.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/awn/applets/stacks/stacks_gui_curved.py", line 581, in item_clear_cb
    self.applet.backend.remove([uri])
  File "/usr/local/lib/awn/applets/stacks/stacks_backend_file.py", line 73, in remove
    return Backend.remove(self, vfs_uris)
  File "/usr/local/lib/awn/applets/stacks/stacks_backend.py", line 236, in remove

Can you start awn from the command line with the command avant-window-navigator
then try to open a file from a stack and post the output back here.

also what distribution are you using? + version
and gnome or ..?
Thx!

I started awn from the command line with the command avant-window-navigator and here is the output. I tried to open some files with stacks and also tried to remove them.

Oh, I almost forgot the other part. I am currently running:
Gnome 2.18.1
Ubuntu (Feisty Fawn) 7.04

[Evelyn (ms-rie-rie)]

More information:
Avant Window Navigator 0.2.1+ (unstable)

I installed AWN from http://wiki.awn-project.org/index.php?title=InstallingFromSource
and the extras from http://wiki.awn-project.org/index.php?title=Awn_Extras:Installation
on places where I got a little stuck, I went to the Ubuntu forum and searched various entries for assistance.

The folders I cannot open are the ones I dragged and dropped into stacks. I don't know any other way of getting files and folders into stacks.

I don't know if this will make any difference, but I have the Leopard theme from Mac4Lin on AWN.

Finally got some time to give this a closer look.

Do you have the stack setup to use a file backend or a folder backend? (in the stack preferences)

Where are you drag a file into the stack, do you mean you release the file above the applet icon and so add the file/folder to the stack itself or do you drag+drop it to a folder in the stack itself?

(sorry for all the questions, just want to understand what is happening)
