Build: 02-04-11 trunk build Steps: 1. Launch browser and go to any page. 2. File | Edit Page to bring the page into Composer window. Result: The page is displayed as blank on both Normal and html Source page. try to type anything into the Composer page, still showing nothing. Note: Got the same result when try to Compose a page in a new Composer window directory.
Saw this on 02-04 window's trunk build as well, but no on Mac9.x and Mac OS X though.

this is a blocker for me. Here's the js console error: Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Could not convert JavaScript argument (NULL value cannot be used for a C++ reference type) arg 0 [nsIInterfaceRequestor.getInterface]" nsresult: "0x8057000b (NS_ERROR_XPC_BAD_CONVERT_JS_NULL_REF)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://editor/content/ComposerCommands.js :: SetupComposerWindowCommands :: line 168" data: no]

do we know when this appeared? Is there a nightly build we could test?

Is this mjudge's changes?
var commandManager = interfaceRequestor.getInterface(Components.interfaces.nsIControllerCommandManager); mjudge touched and moved nsIControllerCommandManager, according to blame.

If he moved it, is the xpt file in the packager lists?
FYI, my Win32 debug build from lastnight works fine ... as dbaron points out this might be a packaging issue.
Probably packaging. I can type in the editor window in my Linux debug build, updated this morning.
commandhandler.xpt isn't listed in the packages files on any platform.
who do I talk to about packaging. sorry didnt think about that.

mike, you just need to add the new .xpt file to packages-win, packages-mac, and packages-unix in xpinstall/packager. If you look at the files, it's pretty self-explanatory.
ok checked into packager-unix and mac static and non static. I think the mac one is ok by itself. anyone seeing this install problem on a macintosh?
ok bryner also thinks that mac is ok. who needs to test this to mark it fixed?
I verified win32 is okay on my win2K box. dropped in commandhandler.xpt, deleted component.reg, start the browser, ctl-E edit page and page content displays in editor

can we mark this fixed then so release will know to re-spin the bits and open the tree?
Why is the Mac ok, does it not use commandhandler.xpt? What about embedders, do they need it? (The embedding package lists are in embedding/config).
bryner answered my Mac question: Mac automatically gets this xpt because it automatically creates one xpt for embedding/components. I still don't know for certain if it should also be added to the embedding package lists, but this probably should not hold the tree (trivial fix if they are needed). Adding Jud to Cc, could you please take care of those if they are needed? Closing as fixed.

Not fixed, 5:30 builds still horked. Can't type anything, and open button doesn't work.
Status: RESOLVED → REOPENED
Resolution: FIXED → ---
note: build 2-4-09 w2k still isn't fixed.
Yes, please also add this to the embedding manifests.
I updated last night, and this WFM, linux/rh71
slapping keywords all over this one...I thought we would have a quick turnaround on this one.

adding packaging to the summary. syd: what platform were you testing?

This works for me on today's Linux build, but is broken on the Windows build.
Sorry, I was looking at _yesterday's_ Windows build. We don't know about today's yet.
i tried to mark it fixed yesterday but i just now see on that page that I had a midair collision on the bug so it didnt get marked. Unix works. I am assuming that Mac works?? I guess I will try another test on windows.
ok i think this IS fixed. just have to wait for today's build

verified that this is fixed on today's build on both linux and windows. re-marking fixed.

I see this problem on Win2K, today's build. Could not proceed with retrieving Compose window, or Reply. I talked to Tracy and he saw the same error message with 'R' at the end - on Linux.
