Default A/c problem

Folks, replaced a/c compressor. Air cond. Was blowing cold air for about 3-5 min. Then all of a sudden it wouldn't blow cold air. Lines were freezing up so compressor appears to works. Refrigerant not going thru system ? . Think maybe blockage in line. Where actually is the orifice tube (at firewall? ) not sure. :any ideas or suggestions would be helpful. Thanks. Jp.
