User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:33.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/33.0 Build ID: 20141011015303 Steps to reproduce: Open firefox 33 On about:home page (Firefox start page) press the search button with no text in the search field. Actual results: [Exception... "update op='bump' does not correctly reference a entry." nsresult: "0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE)" location: "JS frame :: resource://gre/modules/FormHistory.jsm :: formHistoryUpdate :: line 885" data: no] ContentSearch.jsm line:142 Expected results: not thrown an error
I don't see that error. Could test: 1) in safe mode: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode 2) with a clean profile: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles Does it fix it?

Hi loic Please look in the browser console, This was tested on a clean profile on a fresh installation of windows 7 x64 os. When restarting in safe mode to test the browser became unresponsive and started lagging by about 6 seconds when dragging the window and activating Firefox menus. This error in safe mode appeared in the browser console: TypeError: asm.js type error: Disabled by javascript.options.asmjs in about:config about:home The above reported error also appeared when pressing the search button with no text in the search field.

cc Bryan for awareness Does the page still submit the search? i.e. Is the issue only that an error is thrown or is this visible by broken functionality when searching from about:home?

If a "bump" doesn't work then it means we're aren't recording the search term in form history (either adding an entry if it's new or updating the last use timestamp + use count if it's an existing form history entry). The code causing this is: https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/components/satchel/FormHistory.jsm?rev=0853b374d32a&mark=855-858,880-881,886-890#844 change.value is falsy on line 857 so we consider this an invalid change that we don't care about. I don't think it's useful/wanted to store an empty string in form history. We didn't allow empty string searches in 31 either so I don't think this is a regression. Lawrence, since this is only for empty searches and it's just a console warning and not a regression, I don't think this needs tracking for any version.

Hi Lawrence Yes, Searching and the keyword drop down function correctly, The error only logs to console if you press the search button when the text input is empty, Same on the about:newtab search.

In that case, this issue is not significant enough to track but is something that we would certainly take a fix for.

This seems consistent with search.xml's behavior: http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/annotate/c0ddb1b098ec/browser/components/search/content/search.xml#l483

It's a simple fix. This also replaces the msg.target.contentWindow check with a currentURI check. We used to check contentWindow here before calling PrivateBrowsingUtils.isWindowPrivate(msg.target.contentWindow), but that was changed to PrivateBrowsingUtils.isBrowserPrivate(msg.target) by http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/diff/324798b60ba3/browser/modules/ContentSearch.jsm.

Whoops, sorry Gavin. That's what I get for having the attach-new-patch page open since yesterday and not refreshing the main bug page. :-/

Comment on attachment 8512824 [details] [diff] [review] patch Review of attachment 8512824 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- Oh, you posted your patch only 30 seconds before I posted mine. I don't feel so bad now. :-P :-) I like my patch better... it patches code closer to the problem, so any ContentSearch client sending the AddFormHistoryEntry message with an empty string will work correctly. Plus it fixes the now unnecessary contentWindow CPOW getter. So is it OK if I leave my r? for Matt? Or do you have an opinion on my patch?

FWIW, I also like adw's patch better because of where it's fixing the problem.

(In reply to Matthew N. [:MattN] (behind on reviews - focused on Loop) from comment #13) > Could you add more context to your patch in the future? 3 lines isn't enough. Sorry, instead of generating a diff -U8 like usual, I attached the patch right from .hg/patches, which doesn't have a lot of context apparently. > So the currentURI check is now to make sure the page is still alive? I don't > see why we need that since I don't see why it should prevent use from adding > to form history. It's needed to short-circuit the PrivateBrowsingUtils.isBrowserPrivate(msg.target) call. If the page is in a private browsing window, we skip adding to form history. If the browser was destroyed before the message reached ContentSearch, then PrivateBrowsingUtils won't be able to tell whether the browser is private -- actually, PrivateBrowsingUtils.isBrowserPrivate will end up throwing an exception at least in the non-e10s case because browser.contentWindow will be undefined. If we can't tell whether the browser is private, then assume it is and skip adding to form history.

Stealing bug from Gavin as we discussed on IRC. This also uses entry === "" instead of !entry so that we still log errors in cases where entry is falsey but not a string, as you requested on IRC. (In reply to Drew Willcoxon :adw from comment #15) > Sorry, instead of generating a diff -U8 like usual, I attached the patch > right from .hg/patches, which doesn't have a lot of context apparently. Ah, you can set unified=8 in the [diff] section of your .hgrc to fix that.

(In reply to Lawrence Mandel [:lmandel] (use needinfo) from comment #7) > In that case, this issue is not significant enough to track but is something > that we would certainly take a fix for. The m-c patch didn't apply cleanly because the PrivateBrowsingUtils.isWindowPrivate -> isBrowserPrivate caller change landed on 35 (Aurora), in bug 1069059. This patch still calls the newer isBrowserPrivate, not isWindowPrivate, because that is available on 34 (Beta) due to https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/34c81d98d96a. Approval Request Comment [Feature/regressing bug #]: Search suggestions on about:home, bug 612453 [User impact if declined]: A harmless error reported in the browser console when you click the Search button on about:home/newtab with an empty search box [Describe test coverage new/current, TBPL]: We have automated tests for this feature, which I ran on beta locally before requesting approval. I also tested manually locally. [Risks and why]: If we didn't have test coverage, moderate risk, since this touches the code that handles searching on about:home/newtab. But given that I tested this as I just described, I'd say low risk. The patch is also pretty small. [String/UUID change made/needed]: None

This is the patch that landed on m-c. It differs from the previously posted patch in that it includes Matt's catch-cuddling nit from comment 18. Approval Request Comment: Please see comment 21. However, unlike in comment 21, I didn't bother running tests or manually testing locally because this patch applies cleanly to m-a and I wouldn't expect any behavior differences from m-c.
