145457 - AssignFromReadable not in xpcom

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 145407

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Oddsson]

Each time I install a new release (nightly or RC) I get an error:
The procedure entry point ?AssignFromReadable@nsAString@@IAEXBV1@@Z could not be
located in the dynamic link library xpcom.dll.

Currently using Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0.0+)
Gecko/20020515 but this has been happening for the past few weeks. 

This error only happens once with each installed release.

This happens when you uninstall over a previous version at times... to
browser-general -- Matti collects these sort of bugs.

Did you install spell ckecker?

I faced the same problem. It is not a problem that I installed new build over an
old build without uninstalled. After investigation, I found that the problem
should be from the spell checker.

I don't think I installed spelling. This is just a standard install with the
only add-on being Mouse gestures.

Any add-on component could be the culprit -- if it wasn't built as part of the
Mozilla build then it might have been compiled against old versions of the
headers and will thus be incompatible.
