Steps to reproduce: 1. Do a clean install of seamonkey (clean mozregistry.dat) 2. Run apprunner -install 3. Migrate a 4.x profile Expected results: Migrated profile bookmarks available for use in seamonkey Actual results: bookmark menu has only two options add current page and manage bookmarks Second launch of seamonkey does show migrated bookmarks Migrated bookmarks file is present in proper profile directory but not being read until second launch Launching with a second migrated profile shows same bookmarks Not sure if this is related to bug 9943 Build: 1999090108 WinNT, testing others now
Win98 tested ok with one profile to migrate--I could reproduce if I added a second 4.x profile This seems to happen on machines that have more than 1 profile to be migrated.

This MAY be related to the Init being done on the prefs file. As soon as I get the "reset" code in, I'll mark this fixed. If there's still a problem, it may be a core bug. Accepting.

Marking this XP as it occurs on all builds as of 1999090909. One does not have to 'migrate' a 4.x profile per se. The bug is evident on a clean install and creation of the default mozProfile. After doing this you will note the absence of the hardcoded bookmarks in the Bookmarks menu and on the personal toolbar (tinderbox, bonsai, etc.), until you quit and restart the browser. (just as earlier described)

Oh, that's very different. If this happens on clean installs, (no previous version of Communicator) then this is not a migration-related bug since my code is never called. I'm reassigning to Browser-General (i.e. Don). But adding myself to the CC list so that if more info comes up that relates to migration I'll see it.

This works for me on Win98 with a clean build (including deleting mozregistry.dat) from today (10/1/99) with both one 4.x profile as well as two 4.x profiles. Feel free to re-test with newer builds since the last part of this bug report talks about a build from almost a month ago!
