Just tried that with a debug build made this morning and it worked fine. I'll pull the exact build you said from sweetlou and see what happens. What was the path of the custom dir your picking?

I used the mozilla build located here http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/ for 2/27 I used a few directories- one on c:\ and another I use for regular testing (with commercial product) D:\customprofiles fwiw, I saw this months ago with commercial product too but it was fixed.

Using /2001-02-27-06-Mtrunk/ from sweetlou also works for me. Can this be reproduced on any other machines? Can we get a stack trace?

As of today, still WFM. Can we get this to happen on a machine with a debugger? I couldn't tell anything from the dr.watson log. Bhuvan?

Sorry to report this still happens to me intermittently on NT. :( Sometimes it does work but more often it crashes when I select that profile and press the StartNetscape button. I can use that profile after the crash

I wonder if this could be related to bug 74118. In that bug, it would crash after making a new profile and starting mozilla. That bug was not in the profile manager but had to do with what windows were brought up during profile creation. The fact that the profile that gets created when this crash happens is also the same as bug 74118 and makes me think it's not profile mgr itself. Grace, does this still happen - even intermittently?

I haven't seen this for the past week or so...just tried again with 4/3 build and it is working. Over the project this has recurred - and you may be right, the problem is elsewhere since it comes and goes without PM changes

Based on that, marking WFM.

Reopening this bug based on findings in bug 82049. Here are some observations I had originally posted in 82049: Perhaps my statement of "Upon starting the browser" is misleading. The last step is to click "Finish"--then the page fault occurs. I have since discovered a difference in behavior between WinMe-Ja and Win98-En. This difference actually does depend on whether the mouse is used to do some of the steps. On WinMe-Ja, the page fault does not occur until clicking with the mouse on "Finish". On Win98-En, if I use the keyboard to choose the folder, the page fault occurs when clicking on "Finish" (with the keyboard, I could tab over to "Finish", but hitting Enter had no effect). However, if I choose the folder with the mouse, the page fault occurs when I confirm the selection by clicking on OK. If I choose the folder with the keyboard and then use the mouse to click OK, the page fault doesn't occur until clicking on "Finish". So at least on Win98-En, use of the mouse plays a role in the timing of when the bug occurs.

In Win98-EN, even with *all* profiles created in the default directory, the crash still exist. I've filed that in Bug 81830.
