Details

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020722 BuildID: 2002072203 Mozilla will not run if the app is place on the root partition (eg /Applications) the app silently fails. If the app is moved to another partition it will run properly. So if I move Mozilla.app to /Volumes/HD it runs properly My system is formatted with the UNIX filesystem instead of the Mac Filesystem Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install OS X with the unix filesystem 2. Place Mozilla in /Applications 3. double click the app Actual Results: Mozilla does not run - no errors, just silently fails Expected Results: App should run Netscape 6.2 exhibits the same behavior
