1287255 - Drag and Drop Bookmark from Location bar to Bookmarks Toolbar or sidebar Bookmark Panel fails

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1272401

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Rainer Bielefeld]

Steps how to reproduce with  English SeaMonkey 2.45  (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:48.0)  Gecko/20100101 Firefox/48.0 Build 20160710233343  (Default Classic Theme)  on German WIN7 64bit:

1. Launch Browser (new session) → Open some TABs from Bookmarks in Sidebar
2. Click on Icon left  from URL in Location bar (suspicious: grey default
   icon instead of favicon icon, mouse pointer will not change to "hand")
    → drag and drop to Sidebar Bookmarks Panel or Bookmarks Toolbar
   Expected: Bookmark will be added
   Actual: Bookmark not added

Additional information
a) Also reproducible when I reopen old 2.45 Browser session with
   English SeaMonkey 2.47a1  (NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:50.0)  
   Gecko/20100101 Firefox/50.0 Build 20160712001326  
   (Default Classic Theme)  on German WIN7 64bit:
   Suspicious grey icon and drag and drop fails
a1) after click on /Reload/-Icon favicon icon appears in location 
    toolbar and drag and drop will be possible
b) I doubt that this one is related to "Bug 1261685 - 
   All Bookmarks functionality broken due to Toolkit Bug 1257599 
   which renamed 'Unsorted Bookmarks' into 'Other Bookmarks"
c) Related to "Bug 1287078 - Location Bar contents not updated when 
   opening new page in the same TAB by link, History or bookmark "?
d) This one looks like a 2.45 blocker?

I can confirm that with my Linux 64 bit build 20160619142420.

> d) This one looks like a 2.45 blocker?

Nope - it's not a nice bug, but there is an easy workaround: just drop the tab from the tab-bar

BTW. Bug 1287078 *is* a real release blocker.

Works for me. Please try the 2.45 I provided and see if this one works. It's a 99% probability that it is bug 1272401.

the bug is embarrassing, I would not proceed publishing due to Bug 1234116 with this ein it, especially because it seems improbable that we can get a hint into the official release notes additionally to the unofficial ones. But I hope that we will get a fix into 2.45, see (f).

e) Was still ok with  English SeaMonkey 2.45a1
   (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:48.0)  Gecko/20100101 
   Firefox/48.0 Build 20160308001946  (Default Classic Theme) 
   on German WIN7 64bit
f) Due to  Frank-Rainer Grahl in Bug 1286373 comment #11 This one is related to / 
   DUP of Bug 1272401 - Port Firefox Bug 1241085 Parts 2 and 3, and maybe 4 
   This should fix SeaMonkey Bug 1270848 - Back and Forward buttons unavailable

Download from where?

>> Download from where?

There was a 2.45 in the last zip. I can provide a new one today if you like. Just send me an email then. 

2.44 is not affected so no problem for a release right now.

I will test that one, wait a minute!

Yes, your 
  SM Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:48.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/48.0   
  SeaMonkey/2.45 Build-Identifikator: 20160628141709
works fine. 

But Build ID is before 20160710233343, so that proves nothing for me, could mean that the problem appeared after Build 20160710233343

Yeah if you are the suspicious type :) I will send you the link to an updated zip later via email.

Work fine for me with  English SeaMonkey 2.45a1   (unofficial by frg)   (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:48.0)  Gecko/20100101 Firefox/48.0 Build 20160716124751  (Default Classic Theme)  on German WIN7 64bit.

That underpins frg's suspect concerning DUP.

I will do tests after fix for Bug 1272401 will have been integrated.

>> English SeaMonkey 2.45a1 

It's no longer 2.45a1 just 2.45 :) Current a1 is 2.47a1.
