Firefox doesn't launch in Phoenix mini - solved thanks
« on: November 30, 2010, 02:29:28 PM »
I installed Firefox via synaptic, and it shows in the applications internet menu but doesn't load.  I get this instead:
Firefox can't find the file at /usr/share/doc/HTML/index.html.

Thanks

Thanks - there's indexhtml-2010-3pclos already installed, but doesn't have the noarch bit.

Did you try the included Midori browser?

It is very good. I have to keep Firefox because of my Credit Union, other than that I use Midori or Chrome.

Yes I tried the Midori but couldn't get cookies enabled for Facebook, so installed Firefox as well.  Probably would have stuck with midori if I'd been able to do that.
