1221848 - unable to attach file, or forward as attachment

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1221962

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[Calum Mackay]

With Daily 1104, I am unable to attach any files, in a message compose window.

Clicking on Attach brings up the file chooser dialog, I choose a file, as normal, but it does not appear in the usual place. i.e. there is no new "attached files" box on the RHS of the compose window header area. No error is shown.

Sending the message anyway confirms that there was no attachment.

Same thing happens when forwarding a message (I forward "as attachment").


This works fine in Daily 1102, but fails in Daily 1104.

I cannot find a Daily build for 1103.

Yeah, unfortunately no 1103 build.  Let us know what you find in the next couple days of nightly.

I don't see any comm-central checks that we should suspect - http://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/pushloghtml?startdate=2015-11-02%2003:05:00&enddate=2015-11-04%2003:05:00

mozilla-central is a rather large list http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?startdate=2015-11-02%2003:05:00&enddate=2015-11-04%2003:05:00

Duplicate of bug 1221962? Should be fixed now. Can you retest?

[Calum Mackay]

Yup, it's working again now in Daily 1110 - there were no MacOS builds between 1105 and now, so couldn't test before.

thanks.
