I have a little problem to run firebird and thunderbird together!
I use KDE and on the taskbar I have a shortcut to a script who can run more instance of firebird.
This line in the script cause error :
exec $MOZ_CLIENT_PROGRAM "xfeDoCommand(openBrowser)" 2>/dev/null >/dev/n
ull
When he exec that I have the error:
Error launching browser window: TypeError:Component.classes['@mozilla.org/appshell/component/browser/instance;1'] has no properties
But if I run directely firebird (/usr/local/MozillaFirebird/MozillaFirebird) without the script I have no error but I cannot run another instance of firebird !
I have also seen that this error is cause only if thunderbird is already running and I try to run firebird !
For summerise:
One or more instance of firebird running + I run thunderbird --> OK
Thunderbird is running + I try to run an instance of firebird --> error launching browser window: TypeError ....
This is the script that I use for running more instance of firebird.

If you have an alternative method who allow to run thunderbird and more than one instance of firebird ...
Thanks
Sorry for my poor english ! It's not my native language.
