I was trying to install firebug on my FF2 and got this error:
"installLocation has no properties
file:///usr/local/firefox2/components/nsExtensionManager.js"
After searching the firefox bug tracker, found out the solution.
Go to your firefox profile directory, backup and remove the file "extensions.rdf". Restart firefox and you will be able to install the extensions without errors. But I am not sure about what will happen to your existing extensions, as I had no other extensions installed. So this is all I did:
safeer@myubuntu:~/.mozilla/firefox/qkvt609s.default$ mv extensions.rdf extensions.rdf-bak
safeer@myubuntu:~/.mozilla/firefox/qkvt609s.default$ pkill firefox
safeer@myubuntu:~/.mozilla/firefox/qkvt609s.default$ firefox&
and start installing your favorite extensions :)
