what build were you trying to install?

Comment 2

[Alexander Opitz]

reporter can you reproduce this with newer builds?

Comment 3

[Alexander Opitz]

No response from reporter after more then one month ... there are different
fixes for percentage ... so I think this was a dupe of one.
Closing bug as WFM.

I've found when this happens,

if the installer tries to download components from net but the net resource
isn't available (or the resource is a invalid url).

opi: can you give specific steps to reproduce this bug starting from a pristine
mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-installer.tar.gz ??

ajschult:

1.) extract the installer :-)
2.) Open config.ini
3.) Search for URL0=
4.) Set it to something stupid (so a network error will occure on install prozess)
5.) Start installer
6.) Select your components
7.) Installer sees that he need to download some things
8.) Installer breaks on network errors but will draw the gtkprogress

1. extract mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-installer.tar.gz
2. change "ftp" to "ft" in config.ini
3. run mozilla-installer
4. select custom
5. unselect chatzilla
6. proceed
7. dialog about retrying download appears briefly

I hit bug 236294, but never get a gtkprogress error

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
