I ran a reemerge on firebird as soon as I was finished with the downgrade of gcc (to gcc-3.2.3-r3). And guess what? Firebird works again! Thanks to all who replied with tips...

Re: [gentoo-user] Can't start MozillaFirebird period!
I seem to remember having the same problem on my other machine, but the funny thing was that I could run MozillaFirebird as root. If you get the same thing, i.e. that it runs perfectly if run by root, then you've got a problem with file security, and if I just could remember which directory But check the rights around /usr/lib/MozillaFirebird. It's working for me now, at least. Kind Regards, /Magnus -- Familjen Sjölander Värmfors Sölvesborg, Sverige -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Can't start MozillaFirebird period!
Instead of deleting the chrome directory, just empty it. Leave the directory there. I had to do this (per release notes) when I upgraded firebird on a non-gentoo box.

It doesn't give _any_ information what so ever why it won't start. This is the output: /home/psycho 0 $ MozillaFirebird /home/psycho 11 $ Sure, it gives an error code of 11, but that doesn't make me understand more of why it died on me. When I remove my ~/.phoenix directory (moz-firebird don't use ~/.mozilla) it initializes ~/.phoenix and for a moment shows me a the base window before it dies. If I remove both ~/.phoenix _and_ /usr/lib/MozillaFirebird/chrome (as someone suggested) it initializes ~/.phoenix, but not the chrome directory and it doesn't show the base window as when only removing ~/.phoenix, it just dies. This is with both 0.7 (which worked yesterday) and 0.7-r1 which I upgraded to during the night. Now I have 0.7 installed again as I thought it was 0.7-r1 that was fubared, but it didn't help downgrading it it seems.

If you > delete it it will be rebuilt the next time you launch firebird. I moved my ~/.phoenix and /usr/lib/MozillaFirebird/chrome to somewhere else. After that I tried starting MozillaFirebird, but this resulted in an immediate crash directly after the generation of my ~/.phoenix directory. It didn't go as far as regenerating /usr/lib/MozillaFirebird/chrome. Before I tried removing the chrome directory MozillaFirebird at least showed me a window for a short momemt before crashing.

Then it's broke . Don't know what else to tell you. Try running it from a terminal window and see what messages you get.

Try renaming or deleting the ~/.phoenix directory - this is where you preferences are stored so renaming it would be best.
