Slackware 10 Mozilla 1.7 hangup.

SocialParasite · 06-25-2004, 09:12 PM

bash-2.05b$ mozilla
*** Registering -webcal handler.
*** Registering text/calendar handler.
*** Registering webcal protocol handler.

And this is where it has sat for the last ten minutes.

Root can operate Mozilla but my regular user can't.

bash-2.05b$ ls -l /usr/bin/mozilla
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 4201 2004-06-18 16:18 /usr/bin/mozilla

As far as I can tell that is what the permissions for it should be (everyone can execute it).

I have the same problem after upgrading mozilla1-4 to 1.7, if stops on

*** Registering -webcal handler.
*** Registering text/calendar handler.
*** Registering webcal protocol handler.

I just installed Slackware 10 and am having the same exact problem.

ozar · 06-26-2004, 01:44 PM

Don't know what the problem might be but it's working fine on my fresh Slack 10 install.

BTW - I'm using KDE if that makes any difference...

Out of curiosity, the first time you ran mozilla, did you run it as root? And then when you tried it as your normal user it didn't work.

And for the person who said it worked, same question only exact opposite. Did you run mozilla as a normal user the very first time.

For some reason I think I may have read something about that...so why'd I do it!? lol

I ran it for the first time as a normal user and it worked fine.

Try chown -R yourUser ~/.mozilla if it works ...

Baix · 06-26-2004, 02:50 PM

To add more detail...I just reinstalled Slackware 10:

When I immediatly added a normal user then logged in as that user, mozilla worked fine. Then I logged in as root and mozilla worked fine, however after going back to the normal user, mozilla no longer worked.

Incase I didn't word that right, as soon I used mozilla 1.7 as root, running it as a normal user no longer worked.

keefaz · 06-26-2004, 02:52 PM

Weird, I guess a config file is not readable by mozilla somewhere...

Didn't work for me.

What is your output for ls -al /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7/plugins ?

Baix · 06-26-2004, 03:09 PM

Here it is:

Code:

bash-2.05b$ ls -al /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7/plugins

find /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7 -perm 700 -uid 0 -ls

Baix · 06-26-2004, 03:17 PM

should I run that as root?

Baix · 06-26-2004, 03:20 PM

As root I got:
