184372 - New build freezes before first browser page is generated

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 144027

(Core Graveyard :: Skinability, defect)

Description

[Adam Felber]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826
Build Identifier: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.2.1/mozilla-macosX-1.2.1.smi.bin

I've twice downloaded and installed Mozilla 1.2.1 for Mac OS X.  (I'm running
X.2.1)  Both time, the same problem has occurred:

On the Mozilla "splash" screen, it reads that it is starting Mozilla, then that
it is "generating first page."  This is where it hangs up.  Nothing happens.  I
am able to quit Mozilla, but no matter how long I wait, that first page does not
generate.  Thus, the program simply won't function.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Install Mozilla.

Launch.
Actual Results:  
As I said, it freezes on the opening splash screen.


I wish I could supply more data on this, but the inability to run 1.2.1 makes
this impossible.  1.1 still runs quite well for me (and yes, I do remember to
quit 1.1 before installing and launching 1.2.1).
