Mozilla Firebird Installation
Hello, I am a newbie, I need to install mozilla firebird 0.7, could you please explain in detail what do I have to do to install it?
My Distro is Mandrake 9.0 |
it dont matter what distro you have, all you need is the firebird sources, get them then run
./configure --whatever options you want make make install be sure you check the requirements on the web site so you have all the dependancyies |

Just extract it and cd into new directory.. then type: ./MozillaFirebird & And it should launch and run.. |
It is extracted at home/user1/MozillaFirebird
There are two directories chrome/ and components/ what exactly do I have to do? |

Also note.. Linux is case sensitive.. you will have to type it exactly like:
./MozillaFirebird & While your in the MozillaFirebird directory in your users home directory you extracted it to.. |
I opened the tar.gz file with conqueror and copied the folder that was in there to the /home directory (it has worked almost any time I tried it). Then?
|
I cut and pasted it but it still doesn't work.
