Using mozilla 1.2beta When you click the javascript link on http://mycroft.mozdev.org to add a new search plugin to Mozilla the following error comes up in the javascript console: Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80040154 (NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED) [nsIDOMWindowInternal.sidebar]" nsresult: "0x80040154 (NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED)" location: "JS frame :: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/ :: addEngine :: line 112" data: no] Also occurs on my own site http://www.edazzle.net/noogle/noogle.asp when trying to detect Mozilla browser in javascript usinf window.sidebar. Following error shows up in javascript console: Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80040154 (NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED) [nsIDOMWindowInternal.sidebar]" nsresult: "0x80040154 (NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED)" location: "JS frame :: http://www.edazzle.net/noogle/noogle.asp :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 124" data: no]

Unable to reproduce on Mozilla 1.2beta, Linux. I've successfully installed the Kuro5hin plugin, while keeping an eye on the JavaScript console: no message in there. Reporter, I suggest you make a new profile and try to see if you can reproduce that. Also, if you can tell what plugin you tried to install, maybe the situation will be different. Also, I haven't been able to reproduce the second javascript error message on the noogle website.

Note these bugs mentioned the same kind of error: bug 171612 "mozilla 2002092808 has javascript problems when searching..." bug 172475 "quicksearch no longer works after mozilla 1.2a " They both were fixed by the technique discovered in: bug 171441 "Unable to download files - 2002092804 [installer] build for Windows" That techique was to delete a file called "compreg.dat" and re-starting Mozilla. See, for example, bug 171441 comment #103. Paul, does that solve the problem for you? On this theory, reassigning to XPCOM Registry component -
