Removed all my user files and did a reinstall. Put 1 and 1.1 in separate folders and now have a link to a mozilla shell script in 1.1 and all seems to be working as advertised. Now to start playing with it. dave David Johanson wrote:
Running find files for mozilla* vice mozilla lists 36 files; none are executable. I first installed mozilla, got the browser up and saw on the web page that it needed to be upgraded to 1.1 so i did the download and ran that install. That was a real mess with messages telling me that things had not completed and to start again but no mention of what had not finished or what to start again. So i deleted all of that stuff I think - since it wasn't an rpm I just deleted the mozilla directories I had created since I don't know how to do it otherwise with a tarball - and then reloaded the 1.1 download only. Perhaps that is my problem.
I believe its time to remove all and start again.

Playing some more I now get the shell script to open up the 2002061108 build, but its an entirely different default page than what was being provided after the install and definitely not the 1.1 version. Still confused.
That's weird. It sounds to me like you installed 1.1 somewhere other than where you think you installed it, but I don't know. I'd do a file search on the whole drive for mozilla* and make sure you don't have a directory somewhere named something other than just mozilla, but something like mozilla1.1a instead. Also, I understand that installing new versions on top of old versions in the same directory can cause trouble. If this is what you did, I'd reinstall in a directory with a different name. I always name the directory for the version. Then if I run into a bug, I can check it in other versions, because they're still there. But I have 60GB of space...

I have mozilla script, bin, and xremote-client but no mozilla executable or anything like it. Doing a search on the entire drive provides 7 hits of which only 4 are files and 3 are directories. All are either read only or read write, but nothing is executable. Weird
Is your executable called anything in addition to just mozilla?

O.K., feeling rather silly, but I just installed Mozilla, the install has it up and running, but I can't locate the exe to get it running after closing down the one begun with the install. I placed my installation under /home/dcjohan/mozilla. What file exactly do I want to start it running?
Mine is: /opt/mozilla1.1a/mozilla
so yours should be: /home/dcjohan/mozilla/mozilla
