Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020909 (also happens with build 20020930)
Before upgrading to Mac OS X 10.2, I first duplicated my Mac OS X partition
(called "Mac OS X") to another one (called "Jaguar") and upgraded the copy
instead. I had no problems with the upgrade and so I wanted to reformat the old
"Mac OS X" partition. Disk Utility couldn't unmount it however, because some
program had still some files opened on it. Using lsof I found out this was
Navigator.
I quit Navigator and then unmounted the Mac OS X partition to see what would
happen. If I start Navigator at this time, it crashes in a routine called
"BookmarksService::ReadBookmarks(void)"
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Duplicate your OS X partition to another partition using Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Start from the duplicated partition
3. Unmount your original Mac OS X partition using Disk Utility
4. Start Navigator
Actual Results:
Navigator crashes.
Expected Results:
It should either say it can't find the bookmarks and create new ones, or
preferably: not use absolute paths!
I couldn't find which file I have to edit to change the path to my bookmarks either.

Did the unmounted partition contain your user directory, at this point?

No. That should have read: 'I unmounted the "Mac OS X" partition to see what would happen'. My home directory currently resides on the "Jaguar" partition. The copy on "Mac OS X" is a stale one (since it hasn't been used anymore lately, except by Navigator apparently).

That's odd, because Navigator looks in ~/Library/Application Support for its profile stuff. It should not store full paths to profiles anywhere, but maybe it does?

I've been playing a little with fs_usage and it does access my profile on the
other partition, here are some excerpts of the output:

I've only included the lines that refer to the previous partition above, the
first reference to a config file is:
***
/Users/jonas/Library/Application Support/Chimera/Application.regs
***
Maybe in that file the absolute path is stored?
I can attach the full trace if someone is interested. The script I used to
gather it was:
***
open /Applications/Navigator.app
PIDJE=`ps auxwww|grep -w Navigator|head -1|awk '{print $2}'`
fs_usage $PIDJE
***
(you have to execute the script with "sudo" because of fs_usage)
What also may be important, is that the initial profile was created by
Chimera/Navigator 0.4.0, maybe that one stored absolute paths while the current
versions don't do that anymore.
Jonas, for future reference, crash reports should be attached to your bugs as a text file, and not quoted in a bug comment.

Here's the problem: Chimera looks in ~/Library/Application Support for the profile registry. That'll be found as long as your home dir exists. Inside the registry, the reference to the profile is stored as an alias. If the target of the alias (the xxxxxxxx.slt dir) is moved to another volume, that alias is hosed. There's the good and bad of aliases: they're nice because they allow resolution of the target after moving and renaming; however, if they are only valid on their original volume.

Comment 7•22 years ago

BTW, Chimera could avoid this problem in the first place. It shouldn't use the profile manager of mozilla which uses a registry to maintain a list of profiles. Chimera has only 1 and will likely continue to have only 1 profile. It's on my list to yank the profile mgr from Chimera.

Or, can't the paths in the registry be relative to ~/Library/Application Support/Chimera, if the profile is located under that directory?

Navigator 0.6 crashes when accessing bookmarks if my home directory is on a server (NFS?). All builds between 10/29/02 upto the build before the release on 0.6 were crashing on launch with the same backtrace as well. I am running Navigator from 10/28/02 without this crash. I have attached a sample backtrace.

A correction. All Chimera builds between 10/29/02 and version 0.6 including version 0.6 crash on launch.

From comment #9 on, that's bug 177587. That's different than the problem originally reported which is explained in comment #6.

I use Chimera on my school and the same bug appears here to. Our home-directories are mounted from a server somewhere. automount /etc/auto_home [358] on /home (automounted) wagner:/export/home/dat02erp on /private/home/dat02erp (automounted) If I edit my bookmarks, chimera crashes.

The crash on launch has been fixed, but e.g. adding a bookmark still causes a crash with 2003090102 if the bookmarks are on an unmounted partition. I'll attach a crash log.

I think Camino should just show an error on startup if we fail to find the profile dir.
