User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20030925 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20030925 Using Mozilla 1.5 beta I opened the Cookie Manager to delete a cookie. While there I checked my Cookie Site list, which I do periodically, and found the list completely empty. Afterwards, new cookie sites I either allowed or disallowed cookies from were duly listed. When I installed Mozilla 1.5 release candidate 2, suddenly my old cookie site list was restored. Although I had thought the original lest had been deleted, apparantly it was not. Rather, Mozilla either could not find the list or could not read it. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.I have no idea how to reproduce the problem. 2. 3. Actual Results: Upon installation of new Mozilla release, the problem was resolved. However, because I do not know what caused the p[roblem, I do not know if it will recur. Expected Results: As the list was intact, Mozilla should have been able to find and read the list.

There have been fixes to reading in the cookie permission list between 1.5b and rc1. So that can be the cause of what you saw.
Summary: cookie site list was suddenly empty; cookie list was not affected . → cookie site list was suddenly empty; cookie list was not affected .

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7a) Gecko/20040202 Confirmed similar behavior in recent build: 1. Open Cookie Manager 2. Select checkbox for "Don't allow sites that set removed cookies to set future cookies" 3. Delete a cookie You will find that the newly-deleted cookie disappears from the "Stored Cookies" tab but does *not* appear in the "Cookie Sites" tab until you close and reopen the Cookie Manager window. At that time it properly shows up with "site cannot set cookies" status. Similary, but harder to duplicate, if you delete a larger number of cookies (i.e. select a group of cookies and hit "Remove Site" or 'Delete' key) you will sometimes see *only* these deleted cookies in the "Cookie Sites" tab, and all other cookies appear to have disappeared. When you close/open Cookie Manager everything is back to normal.

dwitte, could this be a regression from your notifications-fu?

(more likely a CookieViewer.js bug)

OK, so the issue with the deleted cookie permissions not showing up is a regression from my batch update fix - although the cookie list gets updated the permission list needs to be manually updated if updating the cookie list sets a permission. Or I could make the batch update only apply to the current list.

OK, so this makes the batch flag the tree being updated.

Since installing the release version of 1.5 I have repeatedly accesed and modified my stored cookies list and cookie site (permissions) list. So far, the permissions list has remained complete. As this system is about to be wiped and converted to a server, I have not installed the latest build of Mozilla on it. Therefore, I do not know if the problem is still present in 1.6 versions. However, from all that has been written above, I will mark this bug as Verified.
