Paulmac, can I get more input on this. Can we reproduce this inhouse.

Comment 2

[Paul MacQuiddy]

rcrespo, does this happen every time at start-up? If so, try a few things:

Find the file named component.reg in your apprunner dir and rename it then rerun
Also please e-mail me the file.

If that doesn't work, delete the file mozregistry.dat in c:\windows and also
your entire \users50 directory.

dp, I have seen other start-up crashes in xpcom.dll, I'll search around for it,
but we can't reproduce this in-house right now.

Thanks.

looks like bug 13151 and bug 14015 might be related

[Darrel Yurychuk]

Had the same problem with the 99.10.01 build but worked around by
renaming/deleting mozregistry.dat file.  Hope this helps

Ah. That must be seth's changes to mozregistry requiring deletion. I understand
now.

Darrel, thanks for the data point.
