Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1739613

(Firefox Build System :: Bootstrap Configuration, defect)

Description

[Chris Martin [:cmartin]]

I newly-updated mozilla-build, purged everything, and typed ./mach bootstrap. Received this when asked to setup Mercurial:

** Unknown exception encountered with possibly-broken third-party extension "configwizard" (version N/A)
** which supports versions 5.3 of Mercurial.
** Please disable "configwizard" and try your action again.
** If that fixes the bug please report it to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Developer%20Services&component=Mercurial%3A%20configwizard

** Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 6.2.3)

I'm not able to reproduce. Could you try renaming your .mozbuild directory in %USERPROFILE% and then re-running ./mach bootstrap? Then, if it fails, pasting the full log here?

(In reply to Chris Martin [:cmartin] from comment #0)

File "C:\Users\cmartin.mozbuild\version-control-tools\pylib\configobj\configobj.py", line 1304, in _load
raise error
configobj.ParseError: Parse error in value at line 4.

Can you share your .hgrc file (line 4 in particular)? I imagine this is a similar problem to bug 1751287, problems with encoding differences between configobj and Mercurial.

Attachment: mercurial.ini

I have attached my mercurial.ini file. I tried renaming <userdir>/.mozbuild and bootstrapping again, but the same error happened.

This is the same problem as bug 1739613. There is a workaround in bug 1739613 comment 10.
