Classilla on SheepShaver for Windows

Post by jordanbaron2 »

I am trying to install Classilla, an open-source browser for Mac OS9, on SheepShaver for Windows. In SheepShaverGui.exe, I have the Enable "My Computer" icon checked, as shown below:

I open up SheepShaver and go to the directory where I have the Classilla folder, and when I try to open it, I get this error:

If the reason that you mentioned the "My Computer" icon in your message is that you have Classilla stored in "My Computer", then Classilla certainly will not run. Programs that you run from SheepShaver must be on the virtual hard disk. Of course you may have mentioned "My Computer" for some other reason, so ignore this if irrelevant.

How did you get your "Classilla" folder? I see it is distributed as a Stuffit archive. If you unpacked the archive using a Windows program, then it will probably never work.
