User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021016 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021016 Recently, I have been getting the error "The file / cannot be found. Please check the location and try again." when using the go back button to get back to my.yahoo.com. I get this same error if I try to get back with the history menu, the history pop-up on the toolbar, or if I go back to the entry before it and try to go forward. The initial link works fine, as does the link recorded in the history window for that site. This happens every time I visit the site - it will get to the initial page correctly, follow a link from that page correctly, but if I then try to go back I get that error. IE on the same machine works correctly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Follow link in toolbar to http://my.yahoo.com/ 2. Follow link from my.yahoo.com to anywhere else 3. Use the back button in the toolbar to try to return to my.yahoo.com Actual Results: The file / cannot be found. Please check the location and try again. Expected Results: Returned correctly to the prior page. This may happen to other pages as well, but I cannot recall any details of such a situation if it has happened. This is running under OSX 10.2.

Ah, one other thing - this only seems to happen when I am logged into the site. If I log off and follow a link from the generic my yahoo page, it correctly returns to that page. If I then log in and try the same thing, I get the error.

Clearing the history does not affect the problem. If I clear the disk cache, then go to yahoo, then follow a link, and then return, it still fails. If I go to yahoo, then clear the disk cache, then follow a link, then I _can_ return to the yahoo page.

I downloaded the nightly build 2002-11-10-05-1.0 (yes, I know I got the wrong one, it's the 1.0 version). Anyway, I ran that one and it crashed when I ran it, which isn't surprising given it's using prefs from 1.2. The interesting bit is that when I restarted the 1.2 build I was using previously, the bug has disappeared. I can go to and from yahoo with reckless abandon. I suppose this could be related to me accidentally running the 1.0 version, but it could also be related to the disk cache clearing. It did not work prefiously when I cleared the cache, but I did not try to quit and restart after clearing it. So it might have been the additional quit which did it. I can (unfortunately?) no longer seem to reproduce problem. Is there anything else I can test to help track it down?

the switch to a 1.0 build would have caused the disk cache to be completely deleted due to a format change. perhaps that explains why it now works. resolving WORKSFORME .. reporter, please let us know if the problem comes up again.
