254647 - Calendar refuses to run when selected from the window menu. Instead an error message box appears.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 134432

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

[Daniel Liddicott]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla 1.7.2

Calendar was installed by clicking the link in the calendar download page when 
viewed in Mozilla 1.7.2. It downloads and installs apparently without 
difficulty. When Mozilla is restarted for the first time only, after Calendar 
has been installed an error message box pops up, but Mozilla opens after the 
message box is closed (NOTE: Mozilla does not ask me to choose a profile). When 
I choose calendar from the window menu an error message box appears with the 
following title:

Alert

The error is very long, please obtain a screen shot from the following URL:

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Mozilla 1.7.2 fresh
2. After install, browse to the Calendar download page and click the download 
link
3. Install the calendar
4. Close mozilla
5. Reopen mozilla
6. Click WINDOW | CALENDAR
7. Error is displayed

Actual Results:  
When I choose calendar from the window menu an error message box appears with 
the following title:

Alert

The error is very long, please obtain a screen shot from the following URL:

http://www.digitalarena.co.uk/mozilla/calendar.gif

Expected Results:  
The Calendar program should have run (as it has done on my Debian Linux 
installation with no error).

I have also tried to install Calendar on another PC running Windows XP but this 
time in Mozilla FireFox (as opposed to Mozilla 1.7.2). The same thing occurs. 
Which leads me to suspect that it is a Windows XP specific error, since the 
installation of Calendar for Debian Linux via FireFox was successful.

I am about to perform the same test on an old Windows 95 Laptop, if that is 
successful I will let you know, otherwise assume win95 had the same issue.
