I'm trying to launch some of my existing Silverlight apps out-of-browser on Ubuntu and Moonlight 4 Preview. Install the apps was pretty sweet using Firefox and Chrome.

I received the same error message for all samples I tried:

Fails to execute child process
"...some long
path.../moonlight/lunar-launcher"
(Permission denied)

Any one has a tip?

It looks like either the 'lunar-launcher' app doesn't have execute permissions (run chmod +x /home/lenovo/.mozilla/firefox/x9y2ruwx.default/extensions/moonlight@novell.com/plugins/moonlight/lunar-launcher to fix it) or else the directory it is contained in doesn't have the correct permissions (try chmod +rx /home/lenovo/.mozilla/firefox/x9y2ruwx.default/extensions/moonlight@novell.com/plugins/moonlight to fix)

  • I had no luck with the commands. The error message is not showed anymore, but the application don't run too. Simply nothing happen. Anyone has sucess to run moonlight out-of-browser? – SoaresLuciano Mar 24 '11 at 12:06

    I've debugged this and found a fix. Will be committing it shortly and the next nightly build should have it. – jstedfast Mar 25 '11 at 20:58
  • I have downloaded the latest nightly build but am still seeing this issue, I have also tried the commands you suggested above. Any more ideas? – Jim Liddell May 04 '11 at 14:28
