can't run mozilla

[Berségol Régis]

Hi,

I can't run mozilla if I am not logged in root.
is this normal?
What can I do to launch mozilla when I'm not a superuser?
My OS is HP-UX 11iv1.

Do you get an error message or is the command simply not found because it's not in your path?

No, it's not normal. It is almost certainly permissions on the executables on on the current directory. It would really help to see the error messages or at least the exit status of the command when run as a regular user.

Look the permission, perhaps don't have with others user.

What message does it gives to you if you launch it from an xterm ?

[Berségol Régis]

thank you for your helps.
In /opt/mozilla, here permissions are on the following files:
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin mozilla*
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin mozilla-bin*
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin mozilla-config*
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin mozilla-xremote-client*
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin run-mozilla.sh*

On the other hand, I've no return error when I launch mozilla (not in root).
I can maybe have any logs but I don't now where I can find them.

How about the permissions of /opt and /opt/mozilla ?

dr-xr-xr-x 48 bin bin opt/
dr-xr-xr-x 10 bin bin mozilla/

I think these permissions are good..

$which mozilla

check that the PATH for the users are set properly.Which mozilla executable you are launching.
