Steps to reproduce:
1. download mozilla...bin file, clean mozregistry and profiles folder
2. choose Mozilla ProfileManager or Mozilla ProfileWizard
3. Fill in data and press start
4. Seamonkey is launched- 
5. Quit seamonkey
6. Choose Mozilla Select Profile or another option

Actual results: crash on exit (will get stack crawl after testing netscape...bin 
file- 2nd launch shows splash screen then stops

Expected results: no crash, relaunch 

build 2000020109
checking with developers to see if this is, in fact, a packaging/build problem.
My suspicion is that it is not.

Also, did you see this behaviour with the mac mozilla-only build?

tested with commercial build- which does not crash on exit but hangs 
necessitating a reboot. Second launch not possible here either
grace, What happens when you delete the file named "Components Registry" 
which live next to the mozilla executable?  Does this allow you to launch 
more than twice.  If so, please attach your origanal components registry file 
to the bug report.

if this is holding the tree closed, how about some traction on that stack trace? 

It works for 3 of us in mozilla (non-commercial) debug builds.

Doug, 
Removing component registry allowed me to launch again (and use Profile Manager)-
on file/quit, the menu does not close and I have to reboot to remove it.

I am not sure what you mean regarding the menu items.

Could you open up the component registry file with a text editor, and attach 
that?  The attachment does not load properly:

rename component registry to "component registry.txt"
Open it up with BBEdit, or a similar text editor.
save it as text and attach.

I am wondering if the problem how we save the relative paths on the mac. 

steve, can you reproduce this>?
both builds - mozilla and commercial

If I remove the component.reg file in between launches I can relaunch and test 
ProfileManager functions.

I am not crashing or hanging on exit from either build now-cannot reproduce 
anyway.
If I do not remove the component.reg file I will see the behavior as noted 
below, splash screen comes up but app quits every time. 

I guess workaround is to remove component.reg- is no one else seeing this? 

Doug,
I tried opening component.reg file in simpletext - I get the message the file is 
too big. I do not have BBedit.
