It's the MozillaFirebird shellscript you should run. If it's in your home folder open a terminal and enter

Code: Select all

~/MozillaFirebird/MozillaFirebird

and it should run. ( ~ is short for /home/username) If you just get an error printed in the terminal post it back and we'll Google on it.

i tried what you told me to do and i got the next error:

INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: No manager for initializing factory?

System error?:: Conseguido

That sounds like the error message you get if you install a symbolic link to the wrong java plugin. I didn't work that out for myself, I draged the mouse across where you said "INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: No manager for initializing factory?", right clicked on it and chose "Web search". From the what you say in your post it sounds like you haven't got as far as installing java yet so it may be that you have mozilla installed, Firebird is scaning Mozilla's plugins folder and is trying to use the libjavaplugin_oji.so it found there. If you remove the plugin, Firebird should work.
