Description

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

On emulator-kk I see

> I/Gecko   (   64): [64] WARNING: NS_ENSURE_SUCCESS(rv, rv) failed with result 0x80004005: file ../../../../hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/dom/quota/QuotaManager.cpp, line 2327

The STR is

  - run the Marionette tests as described on [1]
  - observe error in logcat

The path for which the Quota manager failed appears to be '/data/local/storage/permanent/chrome'

Comment 2

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

It looks like the metadata file is missing. Is that an actual file or some magic within the file system?

Comment 3

[Thomas Zimmermann [:tzimmermann] [:tdz]]

Oh, it looks like |QuotaManager| tries to open

 /data/local/storage/permanent/chrome.metadata

but what we what is

 /data/local/storage/permanent/chrome/.metadata

It's a file managed by our quota manager.
Actually, I think you might have found the root cause of a long standing problem.
It seems that marionette tools which pack/unpack files from/to /data/local/storage don't include the metadata file.
See also bug 1094828.

Good to hear! One less! :D

I actually found the .metadata file in the directory. Let me test some patches and see what I get.

I run the test scripts on my local builds BTW.

I'm under the impression we're not going to fix this.
