1213592 - [Trunk] Mail Windows UI is broken : no accounts or mails are shown.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1212911

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Frederic Bezies]

Attachment: Display problem.

Seems to be a recent regression. I built today a new thunderbird trunk from an up to date source code, and when I launch it, there is nothing displayed in both accounts list and mail window.

Last homemade working build was built on october 6th.

It happens both in normal and safe-mode. Only addons ? Lightning. But launching my freshly build thunderbird in safe-mode doesn't change anything.

I got this in a terminal when launching thunderbird :

Error: No such tab mode: contentTab

I will add a screenshot and try to give you last official working nightly.

I try to find a bug related to this bug, but I did not find one. Sorry if there is one already opened.
