Yes, the QNX Port of Mozilla requires Photon. The port uses an old Mozilla source base (equivalent to Firefox 2.0) and has not been enhanced in a long time.

I don't know what will be released with the next QNX SDP, but if the QNX CAR 2 work is leveraged then users will get a much more modern WebKit based browser, with essentially the same guts as is in the BlackBerry PlayBook browser and BlackBerry 10 browser.

I'm just saying "if". I don't really know...

Don't mean to rub it in but, with the next release of QNX (6.6 ?) Photon is gone so will Mozilla I assume.

Unfortunately Mozilla is the only Photon web browsing server available in 6.5. I didn't try to run a copied version of VoyagerServer in 6.5, but I can't think of why it wouldn't work.

Do you have an appropriate entry in /etc/photon/webservers for it? Can you give more details on what happens when you try to run it? Are there any error messages?

You can try running the voyager server manually from the command line in order to see any error messages. Use the same command as shown in /etc/photon/webservers. If the server starts ok, look for more error messages after you start the Photon app that contains the Voyager client code.

Subject: A fast web server in 6.5

Hi:

In 6.4 we have a quick boot image that we use for customer demos. On most processors it boots to a web page in a few second. It uses voyager.

With the move to 6.5 we have lost voyager. The replacement mozserver/Mozilla/bon echo browser adds at least 10 seconds to the time to display. Often this is 3 times longer than the 6.4 version.

My questions are:
Ive tried to run voyager in 6.5 with no success. How can i get voyager to run in 6.5?

and
Does 6.5 have a fast web display option?

Thanks,
Andy
