Unhappy FC2 Mozilla & Firefox woun't lauch after plugin install

Need help. So I decided to install mozplugger and flash player. I also added the symbolic links to gxine for video streaming and links to flash player. Now mozilla or firefox will not launch. I get no errors back to even attempt to troubleshoot. It acts as if it is going to launch, I get the hour glass, but then it just goes away. I have rebooted my box. I have uninstalled and reinstalled mozilla with yum but have had no luck. Can someone here point me in the right direction?

Thank you

You should remove the sym. links that you added.
I had the same issue when I tried to sym. link a wrong file for java support....

Problem fixed

Thank you ginux. I removed the Java link I had created and now mozilla & firefox work again.
Here's the link that was causing my problem.
libjavaplugin_oji.so -> /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2_04/jre/plugin/i386/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji.so

So, how am I supposed to enable the Java plugin?

Thank you

Use the ns610-gcc32 plug-in. The other version is for systems built prior to GCC 3.2 (there was a major library change at that version).

I had a trouble with Mozilla too. After installing russian language support Mozilla wouldn't launch at all. It says somethig about not being able to find (or set?) XBL bindings.... I could still run it as root, but I don't know too many people who would browse the internet as root.
I got it working again by restoring settings to defaults, but the problem remains.
Though I don't really care whether the programm interface is in english or in russian, some of our customers would certainly prefer native language over default. It turns to be FC2 specific, because nothing like it had ever happened with other distros....
Any ideas what could be done to fix this bug?
