I'm trying to install lightning 2.6.5 on thunderbird 24.5 (compatible).

When I select "Install Add-on From File", choose the "lightning-2.6.5-sm+tb-linux.xpi" file and click "open" the dialog closes. And nothing. The calendar is not installed. No message appears. Restarting thunderbird changes nothing.

I've tried rm'ing configurations.ini and the extensions.* files form .thunderbird/garbledLetters/ but it hasn't helped. Any ideas? (RHELS 6.3)

have you tried simply going into the add-ons and typing Lightning into the search box, pressing enter and selecting the install button on the entry that search returns? XPI file are not a good way to install add-ons anymore.

Aha. I cannot install add-ons through the search bar either. I could let an add-on search (or the "Get Add-ons" tab) load all day; it'll stay "Loading..." until the cows come home. If I *could* install that way, it may well fix the problem, however, I don't think it causes the problem. When I was running tb ERS 17, I had the same "Loading..." problem, but I could install through XPI files.

You sir, are a genius, a gentlemen, a scholar. Your post led me to Why does 'Get Add-Ons' hang on 'Loading'?. rm addons.sqlite => "Get Add-ons" works Get Lightning works.

Thank you.
