Mac Forum / Applications / Firefox / Mozilla / January 2004

I've just pulled the source for Phoenix and built it, but it doesn't
quite work. When launched, a browser window appears but I can't make the
window active and use it. Clicking on it has no effect--it just sits
there. I can't select it with Alt-Tab or Expose either.

My build environment:

-- Mac G5 with 10.3.2
-- Latest developer tools from Apple (Xcode 1.1, gcc-3.3)
--Fink 6.2, ORBit and Shared Menus Framework installed per the build
  instructions

My .mozconfig file:

# sh
# Build configuration script
#
# See http://www.mozilla.org/build/unix.html for build instructions.
#

# Options for 'configure' (same as command-line options).
ac_add_options --disable-mailnews
ac_add_options --disable-composer
ac_add_options --disable-ldap
ac_add_options --enable-crypto
export MOZ_PHOENIX=1
mk_add_options MOZ_PHOENIX=1

When I launch, this is what appears in the console window:

Any ideas what's going on?
