626473 - PPT file handled by mozplugger generates File not found errors

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 644431

(Core :: Networking: Cache, defect)

Description

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

On Fedora 12, when attempting to open a link that is handled by a plugin (specifically the URL via mozplugger 1.12.1 which should trigger OpenOffice.org, I believe), I consistently see this error message: "/home/t_mattjo/mozilla/firefox/kjw9ngf4.jetpack/Cache/4/42/4CA4Bd01 does not exist."

Can be a symptom of bug #605101. Does the file exist? Could you list about:cache-info for the URL in question?

Comment 2

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

about:cache-info doesn't exist, so I presume you mean about:cache and then the Disk cache listing.  I don't see any entry for 341-Lecture2.ppt (which is the file I was clicking from the URL that I forgot to specify).

[Bjarne (:bjarne)]

And I assume the file doesn't exist on disk?

Comment 4

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

Correct.

Comment 5

[Bjarne (:bjarne)]

Any chance to try opening the link without the plugin activated/installed? (I.e. is the plugin a necessary factor?)

Comment 6

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

With mozplugger disabled, the file can be opened in OpenOffice.org without any problems.

Comment 7

[Bjarne (:bjarne)]

Do you have a cache-entry for the file after opening it? If there is, and you re-enable mozplugger, does it open?

Comment 8

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

Hmm, still no cache-entry for the pdf after opening it.

Comment 9

[Bjarne (:bjarne)]

How does it work with the plugin enabled now?

Comment 10

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

Same error.

Comment 11

[Michal Novotny [:michal]]

I can't reproduce it with mozplugger on Fedora 14. Could you please post a log? (NSPR_LOG_MODULES=nsHttp:5,cache:5)

Comment 12

[Bjarne (:bjarne)]

With risk of stating the obvious: Doesn't this sound like a mozplugger-problem? :) Should we involve Louis Bavoil and Peter Leese?

Comment 13

[Johnny Stenback (:jst)]

Not blocking, if more evidence appears that says it's a bad problem in our code, and it's a regression, please renominate.

I think this is a dupe of #644431. Reopen if it appears again.
