https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=401371 Summary: Firefox3 won't start for non-local user Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Firefox AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: james@bear454.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Customer Firefox 3.0 was installed from OBS: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/openSUSE_10.3 When ff3 is run as a local user it executes normally. When run by a non-local user (authenticated via Active Directory) it doesn't run. bash -x /usr/lib/firefox.sh as local user ends with exitcode=0. For non-local user it ends with exitcode=1. As a temporary workaround, firefox has been downloaded from mozilla.org, and 'installed' in users home directory, but this is an extreme kludge; I don't want to have to maintain local copies of ff3 for every non-local account. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I am logged in at the machine in question; the only differentiator isn't at the machine or not; it's logged in as a local user, or as a user auth'd by Active Directory. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
