I need to install firefox version 24.3.0 on centos version 6.5. Anyone know how I can do that? I tried downloading that version directly and it fails with:
XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/local/lib64/firefox/libxul.so: libXrender.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Couldn't load XPCOM.

Try palemoon, I finally dropped firefox after finding out they tell google about all your browsing activity. On top of the all the ways they've been screwing up the interface for a while now it was the final straw. -- Steve

This is not about my browsing, it's about running live server tests with selenium. The machine the tests have been running on had FF 24.3.0 and it died. The new machine has 31.2.0 and the tests are failing. I want to see if it's due to the different version.

i downgraded from 30.x with
yum downgrade firefox
do not know if you can downgrade further to 24.3.0.

I could only downgrade to 31.1.0

But downgrading to 31.1.0 seems to have fixed my problem (at least for now - until I can't get that version anymore, so I do need to figure out why it's failing with 31.2.0 ... or maybe wait until the next version comes out and see if it still fails there.)

While you put it in a directory that makes me think you have a 64-bit system, many of those directories that it finds are for 32-bit libraries. I suspect that you need to either find a 64-bit firefox tarball, or install all those 32-bit libraries.

Well, the example you gave is a 32bit library, it picks up shared libraries from /usr/lib and not from /usr/lib64
Check with the file command that you really have installed the version you think you have.

Well, the example you gave is a 32bit library, it picks up shared libraries from /usr/lib and not from /usr/lib64
Check with the file command that you really have installed the version you think you have.
I did have the 32 bit version. I see what happened - I downloaded both, but both times I un-tarred the same file (the 32 bit one). They were downloaded with the same name and wget put (1) on the second one, but I didn't notice that. The 64 bit one works fine. Thanks everyone for the help.

Try doing a 'ldd /usr/local/lib64/firefox/libxul.so' Should give you some hints.
# ldd /usr/local/lib64/firefox/libxul.so linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00cb7000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x003c3000) libsmime3.so => not found
...
libssl3.so => not found libxcb.so.1 => /usr/lib/libxcb.so.1 (0x003f4000) libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXau.so.6 (0x0038c000)These libs exist, just not where it's looking for them apparently.
Perhaps you downloaded the wrong arch (i386/x86_64)
I first downloaded i686, and then x86_64. Got the same error with both.

There are going to be many dependencies , so you will need to use yum to install an older firefox (if you are using the CentOS version).
NSS/NSPR version minimums are going to apply for firefox, so you will not be able to go back very far.
But that is OK as most firefox upgrades are critical anyway, so browsing the web with outdated versions will be very dangerous anyway .. hint, don't do that.

This is not for browsing, it's about running live server tests with selenium. The machine the tests have been running on had FF 24.3.0 and it died. The new machine has 31.2.0 and the tests are failing. I want to see if it's due to the different version.

Copy/symlink the lib into firefox directory...?
