Cannot run Firebird

Post by neilpwa »

Whatever I do, and I have tried at least a dozen times, I cannot run Firebird on my machine.
I extract the zip correctly and run the exe. but i only get the error message: "Erroro launching browser window: no XBL binding for browser"

PLEASE will someone help me out here. It's driving me insane. I was using this browser a lot recently; I don't know what's gone wrong....

Many thanks for help

Probably a rogue extension or theme that caused that error. If you can remember the last thing you installed, don't install it anymore until there's an update version. =) You'll have to create a new profile and migrate your bookmarks, settings, etc.

Did you really correctly extract the zip file? Do you have any subfolders in the dir you extracted it to?

Are you using TBE? Use this patched version:

I am having the same problem by using the latest nightlybuild of MozillaFirebrid with linux ( SuSE 8.2 ). I also tried to delete the profile without any positive result. I did not install any extentions for this MozillaFirebird version.

bye
