Posted: Fri Jul 26, 2002 11:51 pm Post subject: Mozilla will not start after installing realplayer |
|
|
Installing RealPlayer is the only thing that I have done to my system in the before the problem started category. It is very weird. Basically what happens is I click Mozilla in my Fluxbox menu and I can see the hard drive light start to flash but mozilla just will not start...
Here are the steps that I have taken to try and rectify the problem:
1. I opened a terminal and /usr/bin/mozilla (where gentoo installs it) The hard drive light flashes like it is going to do something but nothing happens. No errors are reported in the terminal. It just goes back to a prompt.
2. I tried logging in as root and launching mozilla. Same thing as above. It will not launch. No errors in the terminal.
3. I tried removing the ~/.mozilla folder. Started mozilla. This time I get a message that the a profile for netscape 4 was found would I like to convert it. This is strange because I do not have netscape 4 installed.... I click ok to convert it. Same wierdness nothing happens.
4. I tried removing and reinstalling mozilla. Since this is Gentoo I
emerge unmerge mozilla
emerge clean
emerge --clean rsync
emerge mozilla
After the reinstall it is doing the same things.
My logs do not report any strange errors. Nothing in syslog, XFree86.0.log or messages.... very strange......
I also tried emoving the realplayer software/ plugin. I rebooted for good measure. I have a feeling that Realplayer fouled up a config file because it was expecting netscape 4.x to be installed. I am now on a mad search to find out what file it fscked.... At least konqueror still works....... _________________ Boricua Hasta La Muerte |

Anyone? Any ideas? I thought maybe it was related to not having gtk. I emerged gtk+ and it still will not start. I tried unmerging again after installing gtk+ and then emerging again..... nada..... _________________ Boricua Hasta La Muerte |

I seem to remember something like this happening. Do this: run Mozilla from the console, preferably as root (open a terminal window, su, and run 'mozilla' with no '&' or ';' etc). When Mozilla crashes, it should give a good reason WHY and print that to the console. Please post that output here, and we'll see what we can do to help |

al3x I tried that before. No error messages... All I get is the below:
angel@HADES angel $ su
Password:
HADES root # mozilla
HADES root #
Russki thanks for the thread! I searched and did not find that Guess I need to try different search options
I installed realplayer 8 from the binary that is on the real.com website. I will definitely have to look through my system again to make sure that I killed all of the plugins.... _________________ Boricua Hasta La Muerte |

Very interesting errors now. As per the other thread I tried launching /usr/lib/mozilla/mozilla-bin and now I get some errors!!!!!
Here they go! Looks like I need to monkey around with my XF86Config file!

I removed the gentoo install of mozilla
emerge unmerge mozilla
I then removed the /usr/lib/mozilla directory I installed from source. I got the mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-1.1b-sea.tar.gz from mozilla.org. Install went without a hitch. Tried to launch it and it worked!! I am posting this from within Mozilla!!! _________________ Boricua Hasta La Muerte |
