1368532 - Awesome bar not completing for previous tabs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

Currently occurring for me in Nightly on Windows and OS X using different profiles.

1. visit a website, eg a bugzilla page
2. open a new tab
3. type: bugzilla [title of bug]

Expected the page would appear in the awesome bar. It doesn't show existing tabs.


1. visit a website, eg a bugzilla page
2. close the tab
3. type: bugzilla [title of bug]

Expected the page would appear in the awesome bar. It doesn't previously visited tabs.

This works just fine on clean profiles in Nightly on Windows.

Hm, unfortunately I cannot reproduce. Could you please provide more specific steps?
Is this only about switch-to-tab entries, or it also doesn't appear as an history entry? Is is something that happens more specifically for bugzilla pages while other pages work fine?
Do you see the bugzilla page in history (from the Library)? does it have the proper title?

I can't reproduce in anything other than this profile :(

If I do % in the URL bar I can switch to another tab. Without the % the other tab does not show up.

Its not limited to bugzilla, but all pages.

I can see the pages in history and they have the proper title.

I assume in Options/Privacy/Urlbar all the options are checked?

Aargh. How did that happen? History was not checked.

I'm sorry for wasting your time.

honestly, you're far from being the first one reporting about those options being unchecked without being touched... I wonder if we have a bug somewhere, or with Sync...
