Hi guru of OpenSolaris Recently I want to upgrade the version of browzer, I have the Mozilla / Firefox 3.1 Beta (default version that come with OpenSolaris: The procedure that I will use appear in the following link: http://www.sunfreeware.com/README.firefox3
In base a that procedure, I do the following Installation: ------------- * Tarball format Extract the tarball to a proper location[1] $ bzip2 -dc <tarball basename>.tar.bz2 | tar -xf - bzip2 -dc firefox-3.6.3.en-US.opensolaris-i386-pkg.bz2 | tar -xf - [1]: Make sure there is no firefox directory there before you extract the tarball, it's not recommended to just overwrite the old firefox directory. * Pkgadd format 1, First uncompress the zip file $ bzip2 -d <zip file basename>.bz2 bzip2 -d firefox-3.6.3.en-US.opensolaris-i386-pkg.bz2 You will get a package datastream file named <zip file basename> 2, Install the package as root # pkgadd -d ./<zip file basename> pkgadd -d ./firefox-3.6.3.en-US.opensolaris-i386-pkg The default install location would be /opt/sfw/lib/firefox To Enable Java: --------------- cd /path/to/<install location>/plugins cd /path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/plugins ln -s /path/to/<java plugin install location>/libjavaplugin_oji.so ln -s /path/to/usr/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so On OpenSolaris/Solaris 10, Java plugin is probably located at /usr/java/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so To Enable Flash/Shockwave: -------------------------- 1, Download the Flash/Shockwave plugin from http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P2_Platform=Intel&P3_Browser_Version=Netscape4&P5_Language=English 2, Extract the tarball and place the files under /path/to/<install location>/plugins /path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/plugins bzip2 -dc <tarball basename>.tar.bz2 | tar -xf - bzip2 -dc flash_player_10_solaris_x86.tar.bz2 | tar -xf - To Run The Application: ----------------------- a, Execute the application by specifying the absolute path $ /path/to/<install location>/firefox /path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/firefox b, Add <install location> to your PATH and execute "firefox" export PATH=/usr/gnu/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin: export PATH=/opt/sfw/lib/firefox:$PATH c, Add the desktop file and start from menu(pkgadd format only) # cat >/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop<<EOF [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Encoding=UTF-8 Type=Application Exec=/path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/firefox TryExec=/path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/firefox Icon=/path/to/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/icons/mozicon50.xpm X-GNOME-DocPath= Terminal=false Name=firefox GenericName=firefox Comment=firefox Categories=Application;Network; EOF The upgrade is ok, but the problem occur/happen when I reboot mi PC before the upgrade the opensolaris provide me two forms to access to browser of Firefox Applications--->Internet --->Firefox and in the top of the Screen Between Personal directory and Packeted Manager was a Icon In this moment I don't have this icon I enter to browser by Command line, online writing export PATH=/opt/sfw/lib/firefox:$PATH after that I write firefox and appear the browser, In the terminal appear the folling message: and...@opensolaris:~$ export PATH=/opt/sfw/lib/firefox:$PATH and...@opensolaris:~$ firefox and...@opensolaris:~$ firefox (firefox-bin:886): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Could not create per-user Gnome application-registry directory: /export/home/andres/.gnome/application-info (firefox-bin:886): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Función obsoleta.
