1544221 - Address bar no longer works, entering URL does nothing.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1544214

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[V. Korn]

Steps to reproduces:

Just enter any valid URL in URLbar and hit enter

Expected result:

Navigating to desired URL

Actual result:

Nothing happens (visually). Browser console shows bunch of errors, as follows:

Unable to initialize search service. 11 PlacesSearchAutocompleteProvider.jsm:45
initialize resource://gre/modules/PlacesSearchAutocompleteProvider.jsm:45
AsyncFunctionThrow self-hosted:843

uncaught exception: 2147500037 UrlbarUtils.jsm:170:34

NS_ERROR_FAILURE: Failure'Failure' when calling method: [nsISearchService::getEngineByAlias] UrlbarUtils.jsm:170

Navigation by other ways (bookmarks, for example or by clicking links) is working as should.

Last known good nightly build (based by http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/2019/04/) - 2019-04-12-09-34-00-mozilla-central

Later builds (including 2019-04-13-09-52-52-mozilla-central) is faulty.

Creation of new profile does not help.

This problem is sure happens on Linux, but i dont see such reports on Mozillazine forums, so it may be Linux specific.

V. Korn,
Which locale(en-US, ru etc..) of Nightly are you using?
