spun off from bug 261315 comment 6. 1. start thunderbird (eg, I've got 2004092705-0.8). 2. start firefox (eg, I've got 2004092709-0.9). 3. in firefox, click either a mailto: link or select File > Send Link. results: get an alert dialog which says, "The file resource:///chrome/comm.jar!/content/navigator/navigator.xul cannot be found. Please check the location and try again." after I click OK in the alert, tbird crashes with this in the shell: ./run-mozilla.sh: line 451: 1034 Segmentation fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"} talkback wasn't part of the tbird build I had --will grab another build which has it.

forgot to note: I've got tbird set as my default mail/news client (and ffox as my default browser). running on linux fedora core 2 with the latest updates.

(In reply to comment #4) > is this a recent regression? I have the same problem with thunderbird 0.8 (20040913) on RH9. Initially I have *no* remote commands. strace on mozilla-xremote-client -a thunderbird 'ping()' shows that "Thunderbird" is discovered. Amending thunderbird to use the progname "Thunderbird" for the -a parameter alows some functionality, but causes the "Alert: The file resource:///chrome/comm.jar!/content/navigator/navigator.xul cannot be found. Please check the location and try again. OK" and thunderbird silently terminates. I was able to get 0.7.3 working fine, issuing "mailto:"'s to the running copy.

> ... thunderbird silently terminates.
If started from a terminal the error is:
/usr/local/lib/thunderbird-0.8/run-mozilla.sh: line 451: 16693 Segmentation
fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"}

I think this is the safest thing to do for Thunderbird 1.0. There are better things we can do after that to more generically find a handler for the URL and target it appropriately. With this patch, thunderbird will always fall through to the URILoader when opening a URL, so it will open a compose window via the mailto nsIContentHandler.
