[csw-users] Now a Problem Using FireFox

Wed Aug 31 03:35:46 CEST 2011

Good evening everyone,

I had uploaded a 545 KB size file.  I didn't know that it would bump into a size limit.  I am resending this message with the same document in a zipped form.  It appears to be 46 KB in size.

Thank you,

Fred

Good morning,

I didn't realize and I didn't know that tmp is cleared out during a reboot.

Here are the commands that I used to generate the firefox.log file:

# truss -fo /tmp/firefox.log firefox
truss: cannot find program: firefox
# truss -fo /tmp/firefox.log /opt/csw/mozilla/firefox/bin/firefox

I have attached the file for you.  I see it is a huge file.  I understand very little of it.  I hope you can figure it out for me.

Thank you,

Fred

Hi Fred,

I cannot find that log file.  I tried using the following commands without any success:

  find . -name ".log" -print
  find . -name "log" -print
  find . -name "firefox" -print
  find / -name "firefox.log" -print

I used su and I executed the command from the top of the file system.  The first command had no results.  The second command listed out a bunch of lines with the word "log" as the last entry, but none of these prefixed with "firefox."  The third command listed out a small number of entries with the last word being "firefox."  The fourth command produced nothing.

You produced /tmp/firefox.log in the truss command below. /tmp is a ram filesystem, it is empty
after a reboot. Please rerun the truss below and make the trusslog available for download.

Best regards

Good evening Maciej and group,

I searched on line in order to learn what is a truss command.  I have not found the answer yet, but I did find an example of someone using that command.  I followed it and here is the result:

 I hope the foregoing is useful to you.

Hi Fred,

Please attach the output of /tmp/firefox.log that truss generated, as it's got the output from truss in it and is necessary to help with the debugging.
