Start by making sure you are able to find the executable itself. Enter "whence -v mozilla" and see what that returns. Then make sure that what is returned is actually valid.

Shalom,

mozilla has some pre-requisites in order to work. gtk libraries I believe.

There are links at http://www.hp.com/go/mozilla or http://software.hp.com

Its pretty common to miss that its possible to force the install to ignore dependencies.

Re: Problem with Mozilla in HP-UX11.11

Thanks..
but after installing i was able to use mozilla. due to some reasons it is not invoking now. when given whence -v mozilla from root directory it showed mozilla is opt/mozilla/mozilla
then i executed from /opt/mozilla directory. nothing is returned. Is it because of space issue as 94% allocation used in opt directory.

Thanks,

It might be due to a space issue in your home directory. But /opt/ should be treated as readonly and not grow, until you install new software.

Any reason you aren't using firefox instead??

What, exactly, did happen?

What does this mean? Did it simply exit?

echo $DISPLAY

Where are you sitting when you do this?

Hard to say, not knowing what "it" is, but
I'd guess not.
