Welcome to IWETHEY!

New To help figure it out:
Run moz from a terminal, so you can see if it whinges before dying.

New Thanks. But nothing. :-(
Clean bootup of Xandros (Debian-based: kernel 2.4.22-x1, KDE version 3.1.4) with the network available.

scott@XandrosT41:-$ mozilla
scott@XandrosT41:-$


With the startup page set to [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums|http://z.iwethey.org/forums]:
After typing "mozilla" and hitting Enter, a Mozilla window opens up, I can see it connecting to the forms page, then the Mozilla window closes. Nothing shows up in the Console window (as indicated above).

With the startup page set to a blank page:
After typing "mozilla" and hitting Enter, a Mozilla window opens up and stays there. I can open the Help -> About Mozilla page without incident so it can paint graphics properly. On typing in "[link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums|http://z.iwethey.org/forums]" and hitting Enter, I can see it connecting to the forms page, then the Mozilla window closes. Nothing shows up in the Console window.

Shouldn't there be some crash log somewhere? Where would it be?

Thanks.

Cheers,
Scott.
New Go look for XUL.mfasl and delete it
This file is a cache for compiled UI elements. Mozilla builds it as it goes along. It is automatically rebuilt when deleted. Look for it inside your profile directory (e.g. ~/.mozilla/default/XUL.mfasl)

Occasionally, the file gets corrupted and a sudden crash as you describe is a known symptom.
New Thanks. But it didn't help. :-(
