Mozilla install help
 
Hello everyone,

Quick question here. I've just installed Mozilla 0.9.9 on my Red Hat Linux machine. It does work correctly when I launch it from the directory I installed it from. (/usr/local/mozilla ./mozilla does the trick)

So, I installed an ICON in my panel for a quick launch. I was able to add the icon, however, the new mozilla will not launch when I click on the icon.

First of all, i've installed it in the directory: /usr/local/mozilla. (per readme's recommendation)
When I go to the directory /usr/local/mozilla and execute ./mozilla, Mozilla starts up just fine. But, mozilla will not start up when I click on the icon I just placed in my panel.

On the properties for the icon i just added, under the path for command, I have the following listed:

/usr/local/mozilla I've also added /usr/local/mozilla ./mozilla and neither one will start up the Mozilla browser

Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts as to why it will not launch when I click on the icon? Any help would be great.

Thanks trickykid, that did the trick.

Just one question though, why does /usr/local/mozilla/mozilla work and not /usr/local/mozilla ./mozilla?

Just trying to figure out why it wasnt working before.

I appreciate your input!

somthing like this would work:
 
#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/local/mozilla
./mozilla
