Urza9814 Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 I just installed mandrake 10.0, and, after many problems, and a full reinstall formatting and deleting everything, I got it working fine, and continued to install hundreds of programs :P (took me hours to install all this stuff...and I'm not done yet :P I plan to install EVERYTHING, though I won't use 98% of it :P) Anyways, Mozilla doesn't work. Nothing with the word 'mozilla' in it will work at all. I click it and nothing happens. I tried reinstalling it, but it didn't change anything. Anyone else have this problem, or is it just me? also, when I try to run it from terminal, it doesn't say 'command not found'...it doesn't come up with an error...just this nothing: [urza9814@localhost urza9814]$mozilla [urza9814@localhost urza9814]$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could also just use phe^H/firebir^H/firefox or whatever it's call this week right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelorax Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 Hi, I haven't had any problems with Mozilla, but I noticed that there is a bugfix update for it, if you use the Mandrake update. It might be worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qchem Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 What does "which mozilla" point to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urza9814 Posted March 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 I reinstalled it from mozilla.org and that fixed my problems...but I'm using firefox now anyways...my comp is soo freaking slow! firefox runs faster than mozilla did on 9.2 though...quite nice to have SOMETHING run a decent speed :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to your home directory and check the owner of ".mozilla" If it's root, then it won't work. Change it to you:you with... > su Password: $ chown [myusername]:[myusername] .mozilla $ exit > mozilla ...and all will be well!
