Conkeror/libxul error running

[roddierod]

Hello all,

I tried the mailing list and nothing, so trying here.

I updated my ports over the weekend (portsnap fetch update) and rebuild all ports that needed updating. Since then conkeror will not run. I have tried deleting the conkeror profile directory, updating my ports daily since then to see if any changes to libxul or conkeror have been committed - when they have new builds don't fix the issue. I even tried installing both from packages, still get the same error.

Here is the error if anyone can give me an hint as to what to do. I have found references to the error on Linux lists but they are all at least 6 months old and none of those resolutions worked for me.

Thanks,

Rod

Here are a few things to try.

Move each of your Conkeror configuration and your ~/.mozilla profile temporarily out of the way.
Run the latest code from git://repo.or.cz/conkeror.git.
Use firefox -app instead of XUL.

I'm doing the last two and Conkeror is working for me, but I also tried with XUL and Conkeror started.

P.S. Do you mean you tried the Conkeror mail list? If so, are you using the new mailing list address, conkeror@freelists.org? I don't see your question there.

P.S.S. I now see your post to questions@freebsd.org.

Thanks for the reply.

I tried moving the .conkerorrc file and ~/.mozilla profile as you suggested, no luck. Even tried the again with the conkeror -safe-mode still same error.

I'm not clear what you mean by use firefox -app instead of XUL...wait think I just figured out what you meant...recompiling now.

 

[roddierod]

After trying all you suggestion jrm still no luck running. I tried rebuilding with the latest from git using xul and firefox - no luck either way. But, I now have new info in the error, seems to be trying to load some plugins but I have no idea what...this error is with no conkeror confguration or .mozilla dir.

I downloaded it from git clone git://repo.or.cz/conkeror.git.
And this version started without problems. (Version 1.0pre1).

Derails here:
http://conkeror.org/InstallationUnix#git

I read on the net this is a bug, and it should exist a newer version 1.0.3 (but I did not find).
Maybe, the version I donwloaded is a patched one, but I don't know.

The version in the port, is also not working on my system.

 

[talsamon]

I write it in an existing PR PR 205667.

 

[roddierod]

Well...I got it working using the latest version from git. The 1st time I tried I used the git version with the port patch. This time I pulled the git version and just compiled it itself, now all is working.

Thanks.
