Build ID: 20170803103124
Steps to reproduce:
Occurred immediately after updating to ver. 55. And is constant issue.
Actual results:
Occurred immediately after updating to ver. 55. And is constant issue. Also found when checking 'About Firefox' asked to restart for the new version. I did this once with no change in performance errors. Now says up to date for version 55 and all problems still exist. Freezing and I have no bookmarks and I cannot restore or import from my other computer or browsers.

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]:
this seems to be a severe regression with firefox 55 that should be looked into before updates are unthrottled.
i'm confirming this bug on the basis of seeing numerous similar reports on our support channels:

Hi PappyAce, can you tell us more about your configuration - which security software are you using on the affected device?
when you type about:crashes into the address bar, are there any recently submitted crash reports in the "submitted" reports section - if so please copy and paste them here into the bug.
also go to the firefox menu ≡ > help ? > troubleshooting information, copy the contents of that page and paste them here as well? this might give us a clue what is going on...

Andrei, can your team try to replicate the issue, based on the comments in SUMO? That might give us more useful info for developer investigation? Thanks.

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]:
i was chatting with a user close by who was able to consistently reproduce the error (in a new profile and with portable versions of the browser as well).
this was his output in the error console while trying to create a new bookmark: https://pastebin.mozilla.org/9029327
we ran the mozregression tool on the problem and he came up with this regression range: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/autoland/pushloghtml?fromchange=b01f44c896b2472b154a48c68cf343ae2289d6bd&tochange=d80c517658f5048491b7bf27da25246a297ab50b - so bug 977177 seems to be the likely regressor.

Tracking as it seems to be a new regression in 55.
Guys, can one you help with that? It is pretty urgent

For mozregression, with a new profile for each run, or persisting the same profile? Otherwise it sounds like you would just be running into bug 1356597, which will cause breakage if you created the profile in 55 and then try to run it on versions that don't have bug 977177.
The pastebinned errors indicate the favicons service is not available and/or failed to start. Are there errors immediately on startup that help clarify *why* it's not available / failed to start?

mozregression with a clean profile each run - what we tested was if it's possible to create a new bookmark.

Updates on some things we've tried:
- it seems pretty clear that the favicon, bookmarks and history - so all places - services are busted for users where this happens.
- at least for history, this suggests that Database::Init fails for some reason. It's not clear why.
- disabling antivirus doesn't help.
- crash report (explicitly crashed with crash-me add-on for the support data) from a user who can reproduce: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/e65b6f2b-96ee-405a-a27b-3a19d1170810
- the new favicons db does get created (that is, the file exists on disk)
- when downgrading to 54, bookmarks / history are available again in the same profile
- user is using an admin windows account where it doesn't work, created a separate "normal" windows user and there the problem didn't reproduce
- no PLACES_DATABASE_CORRUPTION_HANDLING_STAGE telemetry data is visible in about:telemetry

Hm. So for reference, here's mozilla-release's Database::Init:

:philipp, any chance of getting the user who can reproduce this to run with MOZ_LOG=mozStorage:5? This can be used in conjunction with MOZ_LOG_FILE to set a file to log the statements to. The instructions at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Debugging/HTTP_logging#Windows provide an excellent explanation of how to do this, though we don't need/want any of the nsHttp:5 stuff. We really just want MOZ_LOG=mozStorage:5 or MOZ_LOG=timestamp,mozStorage:5.
The log would be invaluable. If we're talking about a fresh profile, there shouldn't be any private data *unless the problem is related to automated import of other discovered profiles on the machine* (I feel like we introduced some feature related to that at some point?). If there's any concern about the potential for private data in the log, it's fine to send the log to me at asuth@mozilla.com.
Aside: From the triggered crash cited in comment 18, we see "Thread 55, Name: mozStorage #28", 1 of only 2 mozStorage threads (the other is #7), which indicates a high amount of async database connection churn. This may help shed some light on where the failures are actually happening, at least if there's not some JS consumer creating Sqlite.jsm connections with a high level of churn without regard for whether the places family of services is available.

Hi everyone,
It seems that I can't reproduce this issue by following the steps mentioned in comment 0 and by following the details mentioned by some users on https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/firefox?tagged=bug1388584&show=all.
I tried updating several 54.0.1 Firefox builds (both 32bit and 64bit) with different profiles (old ones and new ones) to Firefox 55.0.1 (which is the only 55 build available on "release-localtest" and on "release-cdntest") and Firefox is working as intended (no freezes, history or bookmarks loss were encountered).
Please needinfo me if there are any other hints on how to reproduce this issue or if you have any question!

I don't have a lot to contribute here technically, but while we wait for Andrew to take a look to the log, I suggest capturing the same log on a working version on the same machine, in case it turns out to be useful for a comparison.

First impression of the log:
* There don't seem to be any errors or warnings
* Comment 27 says the user tried to create a bookmark, but there's no INSERT logged for that, so it didn't even get that far
* This chunk logged over and over again, each time on a new thread, which would seem to confirm there's a problem with the new icon storage:

Er, not on a new thread each time, but on the main thread. Right after these chunks there's a "Closing connection to 'places.sqlite'" which is on a new/different thread.

And then in the log you can see the connection to favicons.sqlite close right after that, which happens when that function returns, and then after that, the connection to places.sqlite closes.

That points to this EnsureFaviconsDatabaseFile call site then: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-release/rev/cace0357d40e875ea45b9ccad99f8785fc2cdb50/toolkit/components/places/Database.cpp#907
There's only one other call site, and there, if EnsureFaviconsDatabaseFile fails, the "databased locked" notification is broadcasted, which nsBrowserGlue picks up and in response shows that locked notification box in the UI. (Well, it shows that UI only if it receives the locked notification before the first browser window is shown. I assume that will always happen, but I dunno.)
If that's the case, then Places has tried to attach the favicons DB to the main connection but failed, so it removes favicons.sqlite and recreates it, and then that fails too.

Andrew and I think the problem is here: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-release/rev/cace0357d40e875ea45b9ccad99f8785fc2cdb50/toolkit/components/places/Database.cpp#383
It's a simple string concat that would break if aPath were to contain an apostrophe ('). aPath is the user's profile folder path + "favicons.sqlite", so if the profile folder's name is like "Andrew's computer", boom. I'm also wondering whether at least some of what's happening is that when aPath is converted to UTF-8, it contains an ' byte in one of its code points, and then this concated string is being treated as ASCII at some point. If your OS isn't in English, that might be more likely to happen.

Several users have responded so far at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/firefox?tagged=bug1388584&show=all (thanks to philipp!), and all but one have apostrophes in their paths, in the Windows user name specifically. I'm hoping the one exception is a mistake! But certainly there could be more than one bug here.
Comment 42•8 years ago

So the summary at this point, to be clear, is that we've found the problem for at least some users. One user's case doesn't fit our hypothesis, but I'm hoping they just provided us with the wrong info. Andrew's working on most of the fix in bug 1389660, and he'll generate some try builds for testing. His fix involves adding some new API, and we'll use that to fix this bug, or at least the part that is the problem we've identified.

My fix for bug 1389660 quickly started veering off into "way too complicated for landing on a release branch", so I've shelved it. The fix here, "part 1", very simply changes both ATTACH DATABASE calls to bind the path. No effort is made to address the following existing deficiencies that already exist and are unrelated to the breakage we're correcting:
- mozStorage default pragmas are not run against freshly attached databases, so "cache_size" and "synchronous" will have SQLite's global defaults as built into SQLite and/or we configure in at startup.
- per-schema pragmas are not propagated across at initializeClone time.
I plan to address them in bug 1389660. Practically speaking, the defaults are fine.
I've verified the fix locally by creating a profile in the profile manager named "b'ad" (b, apostrope/single quote, a, d) with the default directory which includes the apostrophe. With the fix (part 1) and the improved error logging (part 2), my build works. With just "part 2", the improved debugging, and MOZ_LOG=mozStorage:5, places is broken and I see the following (new) error log line in my mozlog output:
[Main Thread]: D/mozStorage SQLite Error 1 executing SQL 'ATTACH DATABASE '/home/visbrero/.mozilla/firefox/sxr0w6d0.b'ad/favicons.sqlite' AS favicons'
If all goes well, builds will start to show up at https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/try-builds/bugmail@asutherland.org-ed7e9fd3389a6ca77e625d8597651a6be5b1f286/ in a few hours.

It should fix the problem for many of the users we know about. There's one user for whom, according to the info we have which I'm hoping is wrong, this won't fix the problem.
I'll fill out an uplift request now unless someone beats me to it. Regardless of whether the problem we've identified is the only problem for these users, we should uplift Andrew's patch IMO. Although ideally affected users could try his try builds first and confirm that they fix their problem.

Approval Request Comment
[Feature/Bug causing the regression]:
Bug 977177, favicon reorganization in the Places database
[User impact if declined]:
Firefox is pretty broken; see above
[Is this code covered by automated tests?]:
Places and favicon code in general is covered, but obviously this specific problem was not covered, and it's still not covered with this patch
[Has the fix been verified in Nightly?]:
No but we're landing this directly on release. Andrew has verified his fix according to comment 46
[Needs manual test from QE? If yes, steps to reproduce]:
That would be nice. STR: (a) Create a Windows user name that contains an apostophe/single quote ('), or (b) manually create a Firefox profile directory that contains one and then create a Firefox profile based on that directory. Then start Firefox. Visiting web sites and bookmarking them should work.
[List of other uplifts needed for the feature/fix]:
None
[Is the change risky?]:
[Why is the change risky/not risky?]:
Not the change itself, but landing directly on release is?
[String changes made/needed]:
None

Bug 1283083, landed in Firefox 50, introduced the initial string-concatenating SQL building logic in mozilla::storage::Connection::initializeClone(). This landing occurred in future support of bug 977177 and had no in-tree consumers until bug 977177, at least based on a brief archaeology skim.

Elaborating because I already wrote this and am slower at filling out approval requests :)
1a) Run with a 55 release build with a profile that contains a single-quote character in the directory name. This can be accomplished by using Profile Manager to create a profile named something like: "o'hai" or using any profile name with a Windows username with a single-quote character inside it. Keep in mind that Windows has path length limitations which will result in QuotaManager and IndexedDB failures if the profile path starts getting too long, so don't try and stress test long names.
1b) Verify Places is very broken.
2) Download cool try builds from https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/try-builds/bugmail@asutherland.org-ed7e9fd3389a6ca77e625d8597651a6be5b1f286/ or fixed release (candidate?) builds with the fix in them.
3a) Run with the cool try build.
3b) Verify Places is now working.

FWIW I just locally verified both the problem and Andrew's fix in the try build.
Details:
(1) On Windows 10, I created a user with the name test'account.
(2) I logged on as that user, downloaded Firefox 55, installed it, ran it, verified that the browser was slow and bookmarking didn't work.
(3) I downloaded the try build zip, unzipped it, and ran it using the same profile I had used for the official 55 release. No problems!

This does suggest new opportunities going forward to run a cross-section of profile-directory-using consumers with profile directory names with various "special" characters in the name. This could possibly just be a series of taskcluster jobs that don't run on every push.
Note that it turns out to be a little bit harder to get xpcshell tests to do this because they like to create synthetic directories for their profile, and use Python's tempdir module and/or your create a dir under your objdir for speed. But xpcshell's stock do_get_profile() method can be overridden. So naive taskcluster tasks should only run mochitests... and probably have at least one specialized test that asserts that the special characters are actually in the profile path. (It could conditionalize itself by checking the ENV variable and maybe the taskcluster task name if it can get at that?)
In bug 1389660 which will be the "proper" trunk fix where mozStorage provides an explicit API to attach databases, we will absolutely create a synthetic subdirectory or family of them to verify single quotes don't pose a problem.

Approval Request Comment
See comment 53.
This should go on beta too. I tested "hg graft"-ing the patch onto beta and it grafted cleanly. This patch is very targeted with no extenuating context outside its hunks, so a clean graft means we're golden.
The plan would be:
- Land this fix on beta when we land it on release.
- When we get the fancier fix on trunk as part of bug 1388584, we can consider whether to uplift that to beta (reverting/clobbering this fix).

I meant bug 1389660, not bug 1388584 which is this bug.
Also, I'm moving bug 1389660 to be a see-also since we will no longer depend on it. I'm also going to look into landing the immediate fix on trunk, because nightly users deserve places too. But I'll discuss with some humans on IRC about that.

Thanks for the approvals! I've already landed on trunk with a=Arynx from #sheriffs to make sure people were okay with it not having tests yet.
However, I see from https://wiki.mozilla.org/Tree_Rules#mozilla-beta that I need to stick around and watch the tree if I land it there, and I need to do real life stuff for ~8 hours, so I am not going to land on beta or release right now. (Also I'm not sure if I should land directly on release myself.) When I return I'll check the state of things.

For posterity, this user's profile path did include a single-quote; the user was sanitizing the path for privacy reasons (both wise and commendable) and has since clarified. As such, we believe this fix covers 100% of the known cases of this specific problem.

It doesn't seem to be related to Places or this specific instance of the more general problem with "exptic" profile locations, so it's probably a good idea to file it apart in a new bug.
