Customized setup for deployment of Firefox 4 : How to integrate addons & prefs (seems different than 3.6.x)

I'd like to silently install Firefox 4 using customized prefs, but it's seems different than the 3.6.x versions.
How does it work with the new "folder architecture" used in Firefox ?
* For 3.6.x, using the -ms switch install Firefox silently, and i integrated addons & prefs by :
- copying pref.js + localstore.rdf + mimeTypes.rdf + content-prefs.sqlite + bookmarks.html to "localized\defaults\profile".
- extracting all *.xpi addons into the extensions install folder "nonlocalized\extensions".
* For FF 4 the -ms still works, and i tried to copy my addons in "core\distribution\extensions\", but all of them do not install, and I don't see any "localized" or "profile" folder for the prefs..
Thx a lot in advance !

Hi guys, here are some informations that i found and combined. These preferences/customisations ARE TESTED and WORKING!!
First of all, extract your "Firefox Setup 4.0.exe"
'''Silent installation without desktop icon:'''
Create a "nodesktop.ini" at the same place you can find the setup.exe (root directory after extraction) containing following text:
[Install]
DesktopShortcut=false
'''Run''': Installationfolder\setup.exe -ms /INI="CompletePathToInstallationFolder\nodesktop.ini"
'''Disable Import Wizard:'''
Create: InstallationFolder\core\override.ini containing:
[XRE]
EnableProfileMigrator=false
Many options have to be set in InstallationsFolder\core\defaults\profile\prefs.js These directories and the prefs.js File have to be created first. Then make following entries:
'''Use wpad:'''
user_pref("network.proxy.autoconfig_url", "YourWpad.dat");
user_pref("network.proxy.type", 2);
'''Set startup homepage:'''
user_pref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://www.YourPage.com/");
'''Don't show browser rights:'''
user_pref("browser.rights.3.shown", true);
'''Don't ask if FF should be default browser:'''
user_pref("browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser", false);
'''Dont't show FF welcome homepage at first run:'''
user_pref("startup.homepage_welcome_url", "");

  • Regarding the Customer Setup for ISA B2B using SAP J2EE 6.4 and NWDS

    Hi
    Does someone knows how we can setup a customer project using
    SAP J2EE 6.4 and NWDS.
    I've tried to setup the project but facing a weird problem..
    I've ISAWAC640SP11 and ant buildtool to build the application.
    I didn't get any "sda_build.xml" in this patch (ISAWAC640SP11).
    i've used "sda_build.xml" of ISAWAC40SP11.
    I've build the application using build tool but when i try to deploy it
    on SAP J2EE 6.4 using SDM i get a weird message stating
    <b>"com.sap.sdm.util.sduread.IllFormattedSduFileException: The archive must be deployed with a 6.20 SDM, which has a SDM-SDA compatible version 1 or greater."</b>
    Does anyone knows from where can i get the sda_build.xml file compatible with
    ISAWAC640SP11 ??
    Also can some one suggest me to setup a customer project for extension and
    modification of ISA B2B 640 on NWDS and SAP J2EE 6.4....
    Thanks & Regards
    Sandeep Solanki

    Hi,
    I am Rajesh..and it seems that you and I are facing the same problem. Well, I am really finding it hard to find material like PDF's files on Build Tool. and ISA Development and Extension Guide. 
    I would really appreaitate if you could send me some material. Well, My project is very simple and I have been given the task to first submit a simple demo of B2C on R/3 system. ( Not CRM ). I have also installed the NWDS and everything including the ISA WAC Java components. I am having real hard time in modifying them....
    Can you please shed light on it...You can also email to me at [email protected]
    Thanks in Advance for your kind consideration.
    Rajesh.

  • How is a JQuery Vertical Accordian Different Than A Hide-Show Region

    Hello Everyone.
    I an using Apex 4.0.1. I recently learned how to create a JQuery vertical accordian. I'm using the sample accordian that Patrick Wolf recently created/posted. It uses a really nice "accordian template" that he put together. It's really quite useful when it comes to saving space and all on a page.
    Then I began wondering: How is this accordian different than Apex's own builtin Hide-Show Region template?
    And so, I created a sample page on my workspace in apex.oracle.com. I placed a JQuery vertical accordian that consists of 3 regions: 2 reports and a chart. I added a little bit of JQuery to Patrick's template that causes all 3 accordian slices to be closed as opposed to the default behavior of having one slice always open. I also added code that allows a user to re-size the entire accordian either vertically and/or horizontally.
    I then created 3 additional regions that mimic the first 3 regions above. These I placed in "column 2" on the page. For each region I assigned the "Hide-Show" template.
    As far as I can tell, both the accordian and the Hide-Show regions provide the same functionality.
    For the interested, here is a link to my page:
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=49919
    The app has open authentication assigned, and so, no login credentials are needed. Please click the "Accordian" tab.
    I realize that the accordian has more flexibilty in that one may add features like choosing to collapse/not collapse all slices and re-sizing, etc. I suppose one could do similarly for the Hide-Show regions using Javascript or JQuery but it would likely be an effort.
    Admittedly, such added features are cool and all. Still, it's been my experience that in the majority of business-like production environments, such "cool" features are pretty much useless. For example, I do not see how re-sizing the accordian or Hide-Show regions has much purpose. In fact, such "cool" features often get in the way of the main goal of the application.
    Of course, a JQuery accordian may also be created that expands/contracts slices "horizontally". I do not know of any way to do the same thing using Hide-Show regions. If someone does know how to do this, I (and likely others) would sure appreciate you sharing how.
    So, then, with respect to basic functionality (saving page real estate by encapsulating several regions), how is a JQuery vertical accordian any different than Apex's own builtin "Hide-Show" region?
    Thank you all for your thoughts/adice/code.
    Elie

    Hello Jari.
    Thank you for your help.
    Yes. Now I do understand what it is you are doing in your accordian page. And also I want to thsnk you for providing the sample code on your page showing how to go about preserving the current state of the accordian when you navigate from/to the page.
    You commented that this kind of state preservation is not available with the Hide/Show region. I'm thinking that you are correct, though I think I once saw something about doing this posted in this Forum. I'll search through and see if I can locate it.
    In any case, have you (or anyone else reading this thread) any other differences between a JQuery vertical accordian and Apex's own Hide/Show region? Other than being able to apply Javascript to an accordian to do things like preserve it's state (like you did), what else may one do with an accordian that is not doable (or at least not easily doable) with a Hide/Show region?
    Thank you for any further advice.

  • Web Server Setup for Deploying a JDevloper Application

    Hello,
    I am trying to convince my adminstrative staff to allow me to create J2EE applications. We currently have a campus wide license. We were told by sales that to deploy a 11g JDeveloper application we would need a WebLogic server license. At this time, we do not have the budget to purchase this license. Is it possible to deploy a 11g JDeveloper application to a non-WebLogic server? If so, is there a white paper available for setting up the server?
    Thank you,
    Kelly

    Currently we only officially support ADF 11g deployment to WebLogic.
    There is at least one report of someone running this on Tomcat here:
    JDev 11.1.1.1.0 + ADF+ BC4J application on Tomcat6
    Note that this will require you to have an ADF runtime license though.

  • Ideal backup for 2 macs? How to integrate a NAS with AEBS?

    Hello together,
    I do have the following setup at home: a Mac Mini to serve my music, pictures and stuff and an MacBook Air for the rest. All that is connected with an AirPort Extreme.
    So far things were good: I had an external drive that I used with TimeMachine to backup to the external drive of the MacMini (which had two partitions). Now the drive broke down and I'm thinking of a way to accomplish backup in future.
    My options are:
    - Buy an external drive and connect it to the Mac Mini: I would prefer to not do that. The external drive just broke and I don't want to go through that again. Also, in this case the backup from the MacBook Air only works if the Mac Mini is on.
    - Buy an external drive and connect it to the AEBS via USB: Nice, I can backup whenever I want. Still the issue of a single drive that could break down any time
    - Buy a NAS with a raid 1 or 5 and have it in the network: Love the idea of a NAS with RAID. But not sure if NAS is supported by TimeMachine (is that one resolved? Not keen on spending a lot of money to have an "unsupported" solution in the end)
    - Buy a NAS with RAID and have it connected as USB drive to my AEBS (is this solution "more supported" than the pure NAS solution? (I tried to connect a drive to the AEBS and it showed up with no extra tricks performed in the Mac Mini as a "supported" drive in the TimeMachine preferences.
    So, any ideas? What do you guys do? Any advice?
    Just a word on TimeCapsulate: I think it is a bit too insecure since it doesn't have RAID and also it seems to be unnecessary since I do have the AEBS.

    I have a NAS for photos and music that I use as a server for sharing with my two macs. I used GlobalSan software (free to download) to set up a iscsi on my qnap nas. TIme machine works on it. Its not difficult to do and I not an IT person.

  • Typed search bar entries are the same for each tab. How can I keep new searches different in each tab without retyping?

    How do I associate typed search bar entries specifically with the current tab only?
    Currently, when I type an entry into the search bar it shows up in the search box of every tab open. If I switch to a different tab, there it is. I want to switch tabs and be able to have my last search in that tab still appear, not the typed entry of a prior tab appear. Because when I switch back to a different tab I want to be able to resume with that search without retyping it each time.

    Use the about:home page or the Google website to do searches if you want separated search bars.<br />
    The search bar on the Navigation Toolbar is part of the user interface and is the same in all tabs in a specific window.<br />
    You can open separate windows if you want a different search bar on the Navigation Toolbar or use the location bar to search.

  • How to compile from a folder different than bin

    Greetings guys
    I remember that a line must be added to some file, or maybe a special command is used.
    Can you tell me how, please?

    Variable Name :
    javac bin
    Variable Value:
    F:\j2sdk1.4.1\binI think you may have misunderstood. When you get to step 6, you should get a small window titled
    Edit System Variable correct? The first textfield should have Path written in it. The textfield
    under the path textfield should have a bunch of paths to various directories something like so (yours will
    differ a bit but don't worry about it):
    %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem notice each dir is separated by a ';'
    Now, all you have to do is type the complete path to your bin directory at the end of the textfield. For example
    if I were to add my bin directory, the above bold line would look like this:
    %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\jdk1.5.0\bin
    I hope that helps, PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT delete the lower textfield and save. It's meant for users to
    append directories to the end of the field. If you delete info from the lower textfield, you may experience
    some major OS problems. The PATH variable is used as a convenience of being able to type a command
    from anywhere in the prompt. Any executable can be run from anywhere in a prompt provided that the
    executable's directory is appended to the end of the Path variable. That's why you can run commands from
    the prompt such as cd, exit, paint, ver, etc

  • Looking for deployment instructions PeopleSoft AMI instances on Amazon EC2

    I am looking for deployment instructions on how to launch PeopleSoft AMI instances on Amazon EC2 platforms. There are many AMIs posted by both Oracle and Amazon together to deploy demo environment, and no where I found the installation/deployment instructions. Template instructions for the following AMIs is pointing to Oracle VM page, not Amazon's AWS instructions.

    We're certainly aware of and interested in our customers' desire to use Amazon's infrastructure for a quick and inexpensive deployment of PeopleSoft for demo or pilot purposes. Please continue to use this forum to provide any feedback regarding Oracle applications, particularly PeopleSoft, deployed on Amazon EC2. We have appreciated the feedback we've seen regarding PeopleSoft OVM Templates. This forum has demonstrated the interest and enthusiasm customers and users have for PeopleSoft and virtualization.
    As you are aware, Oracle has a number of broad statements regarding support for our products on the Amazon infrastructure. We are still reviewing the business and technical complexities associated with Oracle-built and delivered AMI's available directly from Amazon compared with our customers using our OVM images for deployment on Amazon's infrastructure.

  • I want to set Firefox to never remember history. When I do this using the tools tab and click okay, it goes right back to "Use Custom Settings for History". I don't want that.

    I know how to manage privacy using the tools tab at the top of the address bar, or so I thought. I want to choose "Never Remember History". When I do that, and click "OK", the next time I check the privacy settings, the history is right back to "Use custom settings for history". I don't want this. Also, I don't want to use autocomplete for forms, but I can't get those settings to stay, either. I basically don't want info. stored on this computer. My system was hacked several months ago, by some joker who named all my system folders a racist slur (I reported it to Norton, and a technician had a look at it). Anyway, I want to keep things as safe as possible. Please allow me to delete all my history when I close Firefox. I don't really like Google, either, because they have a reputation for not respecting people's privacy. I don't like that I didn't have an option to uncheck google's toolbar when I installed Firefox.
    Thank you.

    That is probably OK.<br />
    You may have changed one of the other history or cookie settings.
    If Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting then that is an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings are not the default to make you aware that changes were made.

  • Wheren can I find a Tutorial for deploying Firefox ESR?

    I am a none-techie that wants to use Firefox in a company. We are a growing startup and have serious issues regarding password management:
    We have a bunch of passwords that need to be available company-wide but should not be known to our employees. We are looking at Lastpass to solve this. But: Lastpass is of no use, if a user can simply activate password-saving in his browser.
    Thus we need a way to prevent users from saving passwords they shouldn't know. And maybe event prevent them from installing other password managers, with which they might be able to grab a password.
    Can I do all this with Firefox ESR? And if so, where can I learn how to deploy Firefox as a non-techie?

    I think lot of this is going to be outside the scope of this forum.
    For instance would it not be better if globally used company passwords gave access to required locations with suitable permissions. ESR has its own mailing list it is probably better to use that as a source of information about deploying ESR.
