Description Markus Ullmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-10-13 17:51:50 UTC 
% thunderbird
No running windows found
Error launching thunderbird:

There are files in your profile that are owned by a user other than
jokey.  thunderbird can't execute in this condition.  Here are some of
the files that I found:
    /home/jokey/.thunderbird/hugih0mo.default

You can fix this problem by running the following:
    su -c 'chown -R jokey:jokey /home/jokey/.mozilla'

--
should be /home/jokey/.thunderbird

This is mozilla-launcher script message, not thunderbird's :)
