339176 - Disabling about:config breaks about:plugins

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Other Applications :: CCK, defect)

Description

[Robert Parenton]

When the CCK is used to disable about:config, about:plugins is disabled as well.

Expected results:
about:plugins functions normally

Actual results:
"about:config has been disabled" is displayed

This was experienced on Firefox 1.5.0.3 using a .xpi generated by CCK 1.0.1

that's very strange.

I'm explicitly only overriding about:config

http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/extensions/cck/browser/resources/content/cckwizard/srcfiles/disableAboutConfig.js.in

const ABOUT_CONFIG_CONTRACTID = "@mozilla.org/network/protocol/about;1?what=config";
const NS_ABOUT_REDIRECTOR_MODULE_CID      = Components.ID('{f0acde16-1dd1-11b2-9e35-f5786fff5a66}');

darin, any ideas?

ok, so basically I was looking for  way to just override one particular contract ID, but I am overriding the entire component because of the CID.

Not sure how to work around this.

You're using the same CID as the default about module? That sounds wrong, you should be making up your own unique CID.

[Mike Kaply [:mkaply]]

I tried using my own CID, and I get this:

* Call to xpconnect wrapped JSObject produced this error:  *
[Exception... "'Component does not have requested interface' when calling method
: [nsIModule::getClassObject]"  nsresult: "0x80004002 (NS_NOINTERFACE)"  locatio
