56616 - does not run as user after install as root

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 42184

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Michael Hoennig]

This is all what happens:

mi@ynis:/opt/mozilla/package > ./mozilla
./run-mozilla.sh ./mozilla-bin
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=.
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
     LIBRARY_PATH=.:./components
       SHLIB_PATH=.
          LIBPATH=.
       ADDON_PATH=.
      MOZ_PROGRAM=./mozilla-bin
      MOZ_TOOLKIT=
        moz_debug=0
     moz_debugger=

My system is a SuSE 6.4. The user for which I tried to run Mozilla, has Netscape
4.75 installed, or better to say user config files for that version.

reporter, what build are you using?

Comment 3

If you're going to install it as root, you need to run regxpcom and regchrome as
root after you perform the installation. See Chris Blizzard's RPMs for an example.

Verified dupe.

To me it does not look like a duplicate. Now I did the following as root:

# cd /opt/mozilla/package
# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mozilla/package
# export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/opt/mozilla/package
# ./regxpcom
# ./regchrome

Then as a user:

> cd /opt/mozilla/package
> ./mozilla

Then the same happens as in my original report: Mozilla M18 hangs after printing
the line "moz_debugger=". Even under strace no more output.
