On a 9/20 build 1.2 build, I'm not seeing this. That likely implies this is a regression from something that landed today.

Comment 2

[James Burke [:jrburke]]

I just tried grabbing latest gaia master on my older build of gecko, and that works. However, when I update to latest nightly gecko it fails, so I suspect a change in gecko. The important error is this one:

I/GeckoDump(  734): ERR: onerror reporting: Error: js/cards/setup_account_info.html HTTP status: 500 @ app://email.gaiamobile.org/js/mail_app.js : 7374

So, apparently when the app does an XHR for the card HTML, it is now getting an error 500. I am not sure what change in gecko caused this, and I have limited access to my full computer today, but hopefully this helps narrow down the problem.

Maybe a change around CORS rules, or XHR calls to app: domains? Just guessing though.

This failure affects the integration tests, so it is hard to land other Gaia changes because of it -- Kevin Grandon found his Gaia pull requests are failing their travis runs because of it.

Comment 3

[James Burke [:jrburke]]

Looks like setting responseType = 'text' on the xhr fixes it, so doing a quick patch for that and will land it quickly.

xhr.responseType = 'text' is needed to fix running on latest gecko. Going to wait for travis to complete, but then will likely land myself immediately given that it blocks others from submitting passing pull requests for gaia as the integration tests fail, and the change is very straightforward.

Comment 6

[James Burke [:jrburke]]

Travis has a failing unit test, but that is in browser, not email, and while the integration test did not complete, it looks like the intermittent failure seen on travis, and the problem reported in this bug is fixed, so going to merge to master.

I just did a fresh master build and this is still happening on my unagi with a BRANCH=master build.

Note - we aren't seeing this on production builds, but we are seeing a failure to add accounts per bug 919587.

Comment 11

[Kannan Vijayan [:djvj]]

I'm seeing this on 1.2 as well as master build still, with the patch.

I've tried rebuilding from scratch several times and it's not fixing it.  On a related issue, no timezones are listed when selecting timezones for the phone.  GMT is selected and the button to select timezones during initial setup pulls up an empty list.  I don't know if that's related to this issue or not, but I thought I'd mention it.

Also, the same behaviour is happening on builds by nearby people.  This is completely blocking me from replicating bug 915223, and I'm not sure what to do to get it resolved.

Comment 12

[Kannan Vijayan [:djvj]]

Asked around and played with some other devices, and it there's another Alcatel device that _doesn't_ show the issue.  In the process of obtaining an inari to test out whether problems exist or not.

Have you tried this since https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=886164 was backed out of MC?

Latest master build fixes this for me, testing on an inari.  Does anyone want this left open?  If not I'll close it as fixed.
