174026 - hangs on splash screen

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 144027

(Core Graveyard :: Skinability, defect)

Description

[Dana Trantham]

Version 1.2alpha hangs during the display of the splash screen. Version 1.0 and
1.1 also hang during the display of the splash screen. Version 0.98 Build ID
2002020516 is the last one that worked.

I'm running Mac OS X 10.2.1.

Please create a new profile and retest

Comment 2

[Dana Trantham]

I don't understand what you mean by creating a new profile. However, I just
tried the latest nightly build and also observed a hang when the splash screen
was displayed.

Dana, see "Managing Profiles" in Mozilla's Help.

Comment 4

[Dana Trantham]

I guess my description was unclear. Mozilla v1.0 and v1.1 will not start. The
Splash screen comes up and just sits there. The menu you're referring to never
appears.

On v 0.98, build 2002020516, the help menu has Help Contents, Release Notes,
About Plug-Ins and About Mozilla. I don't see anything about Managing Profiles
there or in the preferences. But 0.98 runs OK.

Ah, of course. You can't access Mozilla's Help if it won't launch.

To Manage Profiles, launch the "Mozilla Profile Manager" icon in the Mozilla
folder, instead of the Mozilla application itself.

Duplicate of bug 176118 or bug 153839 ?

Do you have incompatible themes installed? If you suspect yes:
Does deleting chrome.rdf cure the bug?
