Details

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Unix; rv:1.2.1) SIF2003 Build Identifier: mozilla-1.3b and mozilla-1.2.1 When I create a new user account the user directory is empty. Thus mozilla has to create a profile (default) the first time it starts. It does create the .mozilla directory but it fails to start. If a netscape-4 profile or an old mozilla profile is present there is no problem at all. I am using mozilla-1.2.1 and mozilla-1.3b downloaded from the main mozilla site. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: The linux distribution is debian woody.

Sven: Is this still a problem with a current Mozilla build?
No this is no longer a problem - at least with version 1.6 on linux which is what we are using now.
