16257 - Error with profile manager.

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

Description

[Brian 'netdragon' Bober]

Note: this only happens on the Mozilla build that I downloaded on the 11th of
November. I built it as debug code. It is from M10.

If you delete Mozregistry.dat from the windows directory and run Mozilla, it
will bring up a profile manager window. If you close that window immediately,
you get this error:

APPRUNNER caused an exception 03H in module KERNEL32.DLL at 0167:bff768a5.

The output of the Mozilla window looks like this:

No error occurs.

I debugged the code and it had entered:

                                       const char* aFile, PRIntn aLine)

          ("NotYetImplemented: \"%s\" at file %s, line %d", aMessage,
           aFile, aLine));
  Break(aFile, aLine);
}

The stack trace looks like prefs, not profiles...

Comment 2

[selmer (gone)]

Neeti, can you take a look at this and see if it's really prefs?

Comment 3

I need more clarification on this bug. When is the profile manager window
closed. Do you close it after a new profile is created? The output of the
mozilla window you sent does not have the following two lines

got a request
ProfileName : mozProfile
ProfileDir  : F:\seamonkey\mozilla\dist\Users50\mozProfile

Can anyone tell me how to reproduce this crash?
Thanks,
Neeti

Grace,
Can you reproduce this crash?

I got the error by clicking the X in communicator profile manager after I
deleted "mozregistry.dat" and ran apprunner. Note the date of build. Maybe the
bug no longer exists.

This is what the apprunner window shows before I click the X:

I am marking this bug as WORKSFORME, since I am unable to reproduce the crash.

Comment 7

[Grace Bush]

I am going to verify WORKSFORME.  I was unable to find a build for Oct11th (I
assume that is the one you meant boberb.  I tried deleting mozregistry.dat BUT
not the Users50 directory, thinking that may cause a problem, but I am still
able to exit gracefully on recent builds. Generally, if you delete
mozregistry.dat you want to remove users50 also.

Moving all libPref component bugs to new Preferences: Backend component.  
libPref component will be deleted.
