Have an xpcom not found error, reinstall executable does not run!

I am on Windows Vista, German version.
I deleted an old folder which I thought wasn't used - unfortunately, it was the Firefox folder, and only some files were deleted. Ever since, I keep getting the error "xpcom not found" when I try to run firefox.
I tried to download a fresh copy of the installable. When I run it, it asks me whether I wish to run it as the current user, or another one. If I click on "current user", then nothing happens. Nothing at all.
If I click on the user "administrator", along with my Windows password, then it says my credentials are invalid. I have no other user on my laptop; my current user has administrator rights.
What do I do, please?

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

  • "file not found" error in VI Logger when running an imported VI Logger task

    I'm having trouble getting all of my imported tasks to run in VI Logger.
    I'm using VI Logger 2.0, with an SCXI-1100.  The data acquisition tasks I import run fine.  One of the VI Logger tasks I've imported runs OK, but the other one gives an error:
    "Engine Error!
    Error Code = 7
    LabView: File not found.  The file may have been moved or deleted, or the file path might be incorrectly formatted for the OS."
    If I create a new VI Logger task, the new task works OK.  And my 1st VI Logger task to be imported works OK.  So I know my setup mostly works.  But our company has never been able to figure out importing tasks very well, so I'm looking for help.
    Question 1: What file is LabView looking for?  I've checked my Export path and database path, and they are identical in both the working task and the non-working task.
    Question 2: Where else might I look for the difference between the 2 VI Logger tasks?  Neither task uses any weird characters in the name, both have analog input channels and calculated channels.  And I've mixed and matched the data acquisition tasks with no change (the good VI Logger task will run with either data task, the bad VI Logger task won't run with either data task), so I'm pretty sure the problem is in the VI Logger task, and not the data task.  I've also tried importing the 2nd task on its own, as a separate import function, but that gave the same error.
    Thanks for the help in advance,
    Jake

    Hi Spex,
    I can import the VI Logger task OK (from another PC running VI Logger 2.0), but I can't run the task.  I've attached the file.  The "1 channel" task runs OK.  The "x-probe" task starts, takes 1 or 2 data points, then hangs for a few seconds, then pops up the "file not found" error. The data acquisition taks run OK, so I don't think they're the problem.
    This file I've attached includes 2 good data tasks ("1 channel" and xprobe"), 1 good VI Logger task ("1 channel"), and my non-working VI Logger task ("x-probe", which works fine on the PC it was exported from).
    I have also tried exporting the non-working VI Logger task on its own, and it still imports OK, but still doesn't run, and gives the same error.
    Thanks,
    Jake

    Please put your script between "code" format delimiters.

    You can add the line "set -x" at the beginning of your script to see at which line it fails? I suspect the . ./env line.

    Hi,
    See this link for some tips if you haven't yet :
    Guide to External Jobs on 10g with dbms_scheduler e.g. scripts,batch files
    I can think of two things. Your script may not be able to run as the nobody user (by default external jobs run as the nobody user). Or your script might require that some environment variable be set (by default environment variables are not set in external jobs).
    Maybe you need to set the CLASSPATH variable in your script before calling java ?
    Hope this helps,
    Ravi.

  • I have tried everything! ("service error/reinstall itunes")

    Just for reference, I'm getting 2 error messages (Using Windows XP and iPod color). One, when I try to connect my iPod my PC recognizes it but I get this error message when I open iTunes:
    The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software.
    Then, when I try to install either software update pack for my iPod I get the "iPod Service Error" message.
    I have attempted every solution on this page and NOTHING worked. I've also tried some of the suggestions posted on this message board. I'm trying to be patient, but my next-to-new iPod is now almost entirely useless. Oh, and now that I've attempted to install iTunes 5, it won't let me revert to the earlier version of iTunes on the CD that came with my iPod.
    Does anyone know if Apple is even planning to provide a fix for this?? I haven't seen so much as an announcement... considering all the errors Windows users have been having, you'd think they'd take down the Windows iTunes download link and fix the problem sharpish.
    iTunes / iPod were working perfectly on this computer before I upgraded to iTunes 5. Please help!
    Thanks.

    The old adage of "don't try to fix it if it isn't broken" is highly relevant in this area!
    I think that's fair in most cases, but I'm of the opinion that something released officially by Apple (and not in Beta) should work. Especially when I paid them $400 for a piece of equipment that is more or less useless without it.
    It's just absurd to me that they could release something that has a number of serious problems, and not all of them easily fixable. And, on top of that, not even addressing the problem or giving us any avenue of live support. I don't have the time to go scrolling all the message boards and help topics in search of an answer... it should have worked in the first place. My iPod is less than a month old, and I can't even update it. Unacceptable.
    That said, I've definitely learned my lesson with Apple's updates and will certainly follow your recommendation in the future.
    Oh, and yeah I tried the clean uninstall too. Got rid of everything AND the kitchen sink. Quicktime too. Reinstalled from iTunes website... no. Clean unstall again. Reinstalled from Quicktime website... still no go. Tried everything on that help article I linked to above. Tried to reinstall older iTunes. Tried to update iPod software. Tried to reinstall older iPod software. Tried starting and stopping all processes/applications that anyone mentioned on the message boards. Made sure my Windows XP had installed all updates.
    I'm about to go mad.

  • Have a iPhone 4s but IOS8 but why does it run so slow?

    Updated to the ios8 platform. took out a few songs for the download. but everything is running so slow. i don't have a lot of apps. and not a lot of the apps are running. is this a issue or just do i need to upgrade?

    What are you doing in Aperture? Have you imported a large iPhoto library? Then Aperture probably is still doing massive setup work in the background - indexing the content, building previews, scanning for faces and places. This may take several hours or several days, depending on the size of your library.
    But your hardware is not optimal for Aperture. If your machine is not maxed out with 2 GB RAM, try to upgrade this. You will have much more joy with more RAM. Also check, if you are running out of disk space. The operating system will need at least 10GB of free disk space asworking space to run smoothly, but more free space is advisable. An overfull disk will slow the system down considerably - try to keep at least 20% of the system drive free - or more, as our hardware experts will tell you.
    You can check for bottlenecks by launching the Activity Monitor from the Applications > Utility folder. This will tell you, which processes are using most of the CPU time, the memory usage, the disk writes.
    In addition to this, Aperture has its own Activity viewer. You can lauch it from the "Windows" menu. here you can see the active Aperture activities and the progress they are making.

  • I have a nidaq32.dl​l not found error. If i have already tried replacing the visa32.dll what else can i try?

    I am working with VB6 on an application involving a PCI-6711 Analog output card. I now am in the phase of working on the install file. I have developed this application on an XP machine, and i am trying to install it on a Windows 2000 machine, but i get a "nidaq32.dll file not found" error when i try to run my program on the 2000 machine. I have looked in the System32 folder and nidaq32.dll is in fact in the folder. I am wondering if my install file (created using INNO installer) didn't register the file correctly, of if it has to do with the driver i am using on the PC. I have NIDAQ 6.9.3 installed on the 2000 machine and NIDAQ 7.2 installed on my XP machine.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Gerry

    Hello GVanhorn,
    The problem seems to be that you have different drivers in the systems. You might want to use the same version of the driver in both machine since that will install the same version of the nidaq32.dll.

  • File not found error from scheduler

    Hi,
            We have a scheduler file with .cfa extension  in the cf scheduler  which trigger some mails to certain recipients on execution.
    At the bottom option fo the scheduled task, we have checked the option to 'save output to file' and has given the file
    path. On direct execution of the given url, the  file is executed successfully and mails are fired.
    But while trying to execute the same via scheduler it is not firing the mails. On investigation of the output file,
    found the error message 'File not found'.
    Is it possible that the file get  executed when directly browsing the url and shows 'file not found' error
    while executing via cf scheduler?(CF 8 is used.)

    To be more specific,
    the url format given in the cf admin scheduler is like this:
    "http://www.domainname.com/myfolder/myfile.cfa"
    A file path to log the output is also given to publish.
    If we copy the above url to a browser and execute, the file gets executed and mails are fired.
    If we set the interval or run the scheduler from the administrator,mails are not sent.On examination of log file given in the scheduler section, it is
    showing error '/myfolder/myfile.cfa' file not found.

  • Class not found error for applet.

    This is probally a really simple mistake but I've tried everything and can't find it.
    My applet works fine with applet viewer - I'm running it from JBuilder. But when I open my html file in the browser it gives me a 'Class not found' error. I've tried running other applets (my own and demos on this site) and they work fine.This is the applet tag code:
    <applet code = "Rotary.class" width = "650" height = "580" align = "top">
    <!-- coordinates of sectors -->
    <param name = "sector0" value ="234,215,244,207,154,43,125,63">
    </applet>
    The class file is in the same directory as the HTML file. Do I need to specify the codebase? I tried that too - giving it the full pathname of the class.
    In the Java console it said that it couldn't find "C:Project\Rotary\javax\swing\japplet"
    I don't think it could have anything to do with the fact that I'm using swing because the other applets I used used swing.
    Please help - I'm really running out of ideas here!

    You have a similar problem like I had.
    You seem to have a too old JAVA environment for the browser - I had a too new environment.
    For all who are experiencing the same problem!
    Problem:
    You're compiling your applets with a quiet modern compiler (i.e. Netbeans Version 3.5.1)
    You are able to compile your applets without any problems but if you try your applets in "real life", the browsers can't interpret your applets [class not found]. (I tested Internet Explorer 6.0 and Netscape Navigator 4.7)
    So you need a plugin for the new JAVA environment because the JAVA environment of the browser is older than that which the applet needs.
    Well, you have the choice to demand to every user of your applet to download the new Java Runtime Environment, but then don't wonder why nobody visits your site!
    But, don't worry: I figuered out another solution, that Netbeans (www.netbeans.org) allows to compile in different JAVA versions.
    Solution:
    What you have to do is:
    - Install a previous version of JDK (i.e. JDK 1.3 - I would suggest, lower versions don't work with Netbeans 3.5.1 and JDK 1.3 is enough for IE 6.0 and NN 4.7, which I tested)
    - Go into the "bin"-directory of Netbeans (i.e. c:/netbeans3.5.1/bin)
    - Open the file "ide.cfg" (with notepad or any other texteditor)
    - You see a line like: jdkhome "C:\java\j2sdk1.4.2" -J-Xmx96m -J-Xss1024k -J-Xms24m -J-Xverify:none
    - Change the path to your other JDK you wish, like: jdkhome "C:\java\jdk1.3" -J-Xmx96m -J-Xss1024k -J-Xms24m -J-Xverify:none
    - That's it, you can compile your applets in a previous version of JAVA so that "older" browser user don't have to install a plugin for the new JAVA environment.
    Have fun!
    If you have any questions I would be pleased to help you.
    If this tip helped you already I would be pleased if you would send me a quick email with your experience.

  • Strange "class not found" errors

    here's the problem:
    i noticed that when you "run" an html page with a java applet in it, jdeveloper (ver 9.0.3) doesn't really process the page but instead it runs your applet in an applet window. the applets i made don't have a problem running this way, but when i force jdeveloper to run them in a browser window (ie, by loading the webpage housing the applet as a frame in another page), i get "class <mypackagename.myclassname> not found" errors and the applet doesnt run. this only started after i installed then uninstalled the latest jdk from sun (since it caused problems with jdeveloper) and reverted to the jdk that came with jdev. i already tried adding to the classpath project settings the paths of both the package and the class itself but still it doesn't work.
    even stranger still, another applet that i installed before (a 3rd party applet: mgmapguide viewer) works fine regardless wether its run in the page itself or in an appletviewer.
    i'm obviously missing something here, can someone point out what? any help would be appreciated.
    thanks in advance

  • HTTP 404 page not found error

    Hi all,
    I am getting HTTP 404 Page not found error when I try to run the test_fwktutorial.jsp. I have followed the instructions of a similar thread but none have helped.
    Kindly suggest me some solution to this problem.
    Thanks,
    Priya

    I did a simple search for 404 in the forum and got at least 10 threads, I think this thread is relevant to you, please try the solution suggested in the thread
    HTTP 404 Not Found error in JDeveloper 10.1.3.3.0 for Oracle Apps R12
    "Hi,
    Problem I faced:
    When I try to run, test_fwktutorial.jsp in JDev 10.1.3.3.0 for Oracle Apps R12, I was getting the first page with the links, but when i click on any of the links, say "Hello World", I am getting a "HTTP 404 Not Found". Same error I got by directly running any of the tutorial pages, or any custom pages. CHecked all the normal setting options like: responsibility key, username/pwds etc.
    Then I noticed in my address bar an error text:"You have insufficient privileges for the current operation".
    Solution I arrived at:
    In one of the forums, I had come across the point that maybe my local machine and Application server were on different domains, due to which I was getting "You have insufficient privileges for the current operation".
    1. Hence I checked for the domain on which my local machine was in:
    My Computer -> Properties -> Computer Name.
    2. There it was showing WORKGROUP instead of Domain.
    3. Here I clicked on the Change button and entered mycompany domain on which the server was like <companyidentier1>.<companyidentier2>.com
    I had to do this even though the machine i was using was connected to the domain using a VPN connection.
    4. Then after restarting my machine, I changed the Embedded OC4J Server Preferences to Default Local IP Address. And when i ran my page, it worked!!
    Before when I had not changed the domain of my local machine to the Apps Server domain, simply changing the Embedded OC4J Server Preferences to Default Local IP Address (as suggested in some forums), still gave me the same error.
    Hope this helps others facing similar problems.

  • ORA-01403 No Data Found error on Update

    I am having difficulty troubleshooting a form (6i) where the data can not be updated. This form was recently modified by another developer (who is no longer w/ us) and we removed a unique key from the items list in the data block, however the particular field is still contained in the table. There are no constraints on any fields in this table.
    I have a button pallette in the form and when I try to update and save, I get the "No Data Found" error message. However, I know there is data in the record but I can not figure out why the error.
    When I display the error, the sql code looks something like this:
    UPDATE db.temp
    SET P_ID=:1,S_ID=:2
    WHERE ROWID=:3
    I put a message in the do_key('list_values') trigger to show me the rowid but nothing comes up. I wonder if this has something to do with that and if so, why and how do I fix it?
    Appreciate any direction any of you can provide in coming to a solution on this. Thank you.

    I don't explicitly say ROWID=:3, what I mean, I
    didn't code the update query. My understanding is
    that it is done behind the scenes given the items in
    the data block. Ok, I couldn't tell from the post whether it was explicit or not. This is from
    Oracle FAQ:
    "I get 'NO DATA FOUND' errors. How does one handle this?
    An ORA-1403 (No Data Found) error is signalled within a replicated environment when there is a conflict in data. Here is an illustration of what happens in most scenarios featuring this error:
    Let's say we need to update a table and set column x=1 where x=9. When the first change occurs on the source database, Oracle checks to ensure that x=9. Once this transaction commits, it is queued for execution on the destination site(s). When the transaction is applied to the destinations, Oracle first check to verify that x=9 (the old value); if it does, then Oracle applies the update (update table set x = 1 where x = 9); if it does not, an entry to the DEFERROR table is logged indicating ORA-1403.
    If the application is updating primary key values, one can also expect plenty "NO DATA FOUND" errors. Primary keys should NEVER be updated. If one updates primary key values, conflict resolution also becomes extremely difficult. "
    Check your pll file and anywhere else you are using db.temp. Then check the the update using PLSQL.
