This was working, but now it's not working anymore. When starting Mulet, we get the default Firefox starting page.
It has originaly being done in bug 1000122.
Blocks: 1000122
Even the firstrun pref is properly defined but it's like it has no effect.
(In reply to Alexandre Poirot [:ochameau] from comment #3) > It might be interesting to trace: > http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/base/content/browser. > js#4953 Well all I find for now shows that SOME prefs are pulled from b2g.js and some are from firefox.js ; namely, |browser.startup.homepage| is "about:home" (Firefox) while |browser.viewport.scaleRatio| is properly defined from B2G.
And hacking: > mv obj-mulet/dist/bin/defaults/pref/b2g.js obj-mulet/dist/bin/browser/defaults/preferences/ Seems to do the job.

Attached file pref reading ordering —
This is the order in which pref files are read.
And we can see what happens after moving the b2g.js file as documented earlier.
Attached patch Define DIST_SUBDIR for Mulet (obsolete) — — Splinter Review
Due to the way preferences are read, we need to have firefox.js and b2g.js to be living together in the same directory, as exposed in bug 1053185 comment 7. Doing so will ensure that the proper precedence is given to the pref and in the end we ensure that the preferences we redefine in b2g.js indeed overwrite those defined by firefox.js. To do so, we need to define DIST_SUBDIR to browser for Mulet so that rules.mk will pick up the proper preferences directory.
With the patch proposed in attachment 8475183 [details] [diff] [review], I don't have any issue now :)
Flags: needinfo?(poirot.alex)
As soon as a build peer is fine with such hack... but there might be better ways to ensure that b2g/app/b2g.js is processed after browser/app/profile/firefox.js. For example I don't know if the order between b2g/ and browser/ is important over here: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/b2g/dev/app.mozbuild#20 Or if there is some more magic to do in this Makefile: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/b2g/dev/app/Makefile.in

(In reply to Alexandre Poirot [:ochameau] from comment #10) > As soon as a build peer is fine with such hack... The hack you're referring to is setting DIST_SUBDIR to browser, correct? I think it's fine - it fits in with how we use DIST_SUBDIR elsewhere in moz.build files, and given how mulet operates we have to expect this sort of overlap between browser/b2g. > but there might be better ways to ensure that b2g/app/b2g.js is processed > after browser/app/profile/firefox.js. I don't have another solution to suggest off-hand, but if you want me to dig into it further let me know.

This patch broke mulet's package so that gaia doesn't work anymore when running mulet out of the tar.bz2 package... I don't really know why... I see various exception about xpcom being registered twice, and also some exception about mozSettings not being available. We should back this out as having working packages is more important than having gaia being automagically opened.

In dist/firefox/omni.ja, I see a lot of stuff. Specifically, I see the duplicated components you mentionned.
Attached file duplicated components —
So Michael, we need your help: - without this patch, we end up with b2g at a wrong place and it does not do its job - with the patch, the dist/firefox is just broken and cannot run Gaia So I hope you can help us find a way to get the b2g.js file properly placed without having to device DIST_SUBDIR.

I see the duplicate components in omni.ja both with and without the patch - are you sure that's related to the problem? With the patch, can you walk me through how to reproduce the problem you're seeing?
Flags: needinfo?(mshal) → needinfo?(lissyx+mozillians)
So first, generate a Gaia profile: > make MOZILLA_OFFICIAL=1 PRODUCTION=1 PROFILE_FOLDER=profile-mulet profile-mulet Then, after mach build package: > ./obj-mulet/dist/firefox/firefox -no-remote -profile ../gaia/profile-mulet -jsconsole -chrome 'chrome://b2g/content/shell.html' Then you should reproduce the issue.
Flags: needinfo?(lissyx+mozillians) → needinfo?(mshal)
I think it would be way more helpful for Michael if you could say what is actually wrong. Do we miss some prefs? Is there some broken js xpcom? Is there something wrong with permissions? Saying "gaia doesn't work" isn't that helpful :/
Well the only reliable symptom we see are those you documented: not booting, mozSettings not present. Apart from this, I could not get any more clue :(
We should figure out why mozSettings isn't working/available.

Disabling a couple more of tests that were already disabled for B2G Desktop. https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=079b765f9ed5 https://treeherder.mozilla.org/ui/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=079b765f9ed5
We were most likely missing many b2g specific when running tests against broken package, I imagine you fixed many things and may have to disable many tests.

We might want to switch to the b2gdesktop set of mochitests, rather than the desktop set that Mulet is currently running.
(In reply to Jonathan Griffin (:jgriffin) from comment #43) > We might want to switch to the b2gdesktop set of mochitests, rather than the > desktop set that Mulet is currently running. How can we do this ? BTW I sent a new Try https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=346ec51965f8 where I hacked removing the MOZ_DISABLE_NONLOCAL_CONNECTIONS env var.

So in fact we don't have to change anything to this patch, but it will need to wait for bug 1066044 to be able to land: we're taking care of disabling the remaining mochitests in this bug.
