with netscape5 2000-02-07, with macos 8.5-ja: Netscape5 will not launch on a Japanese system. This seems to involve the profile manager, since I can get to the profile manager, but not past it. This is a block to testing.

Summary: Macintosh fails to launch on 8.5-ja → Macintosh fails to launch on japanese systems
Macintosh fails to launch on japanese systems. Behavior is various, but has been: 1) hangs when trying to change folder in profile manager. (We do this to avoid bug 15264) 2) shows bomb alert saying that there is an illegal command in the finder. 3) crashes into Macsbug, giving the location of the crash and "deep in the bowels of memory manager (no joke). One of the serious side affects noticed is that the system comes up on reboot with no finder. This is the second machine that I've had these results on. The first apparently has a bad drive, which may have been caused by installing seamonkey onto it.

This works fine for me on Mac OS 9 with all the foreign language charsets (including Japanese) installed. amasri, can you attach a stack trace from Macsbug? Frank, can you (or one of the other international guys) with Mac experience diagnose this a bit? Does this work for you, or fail? I wonder if its a pathname issue.

This is not a JA OS specific problem. I've seen this for more than a week on my US Mac OS 9.
Bom-shik, Can you get a Macsbug dump from your US Mac OS9? Cc'd selmer. Steve, amasri thinks it may have something to do with the profile manager. Can you get whoever is your Mac expert on the profile manager to\ look at this too? Cc'd amusil. Alex, the Macsbug dumps lists: Current application is “Netscape AOL Instant Messenger” Can you have your Mac AIM guy look at this too?
Keywords: beta1
Forgot to cc amusil. Please read previous comment.
Please note: above MacsBug log taken during system hang at startup after reboot, not during application hang.
Yeah, that log doesn't contain any info about this failure. Ignore it.
I don't think I should be the owner. But I don't know who I should assign to neither.
So what _is_ the problem here? The title of the bug says that it only fails on Japanese systems, but comments in the bug say that launch failure can occur on any system. This bug needs to be clarified, or closed as invalid.
This seems clear enough to me. We recognize that this happens on MacOS 9.0-ja, consistently. Later, we observed that this also happened on MacOS 9.0 us, with international language kit. Most recently, this morning, seamonkey launched on MacOs 9.0 with international language kit but crashed during smoke test and corrupted the system, which failed to reboot. Originally, I assigned it to profile manager, but it is clearly not a profile manager problem, since that problem only happens on MacOS-ja, and this also happens on MacOS-us.
Does the machine with MacOS 9.0-ja installed have Japanese characters in any disk or folder names? If so, this is likely a URL escaping issue, and should be investigated by necko folks.
Yes, the MacOS 9.0-ja has japanese filenames. But the macOS 9.0-us that I am currently using does not. The problem occurred this morning after I visited several Japanese and Latin1 sites. In previous instances, I did not load any site before the system crashed and became corrupted.
amasri: does your us system have any folders with a / in their name?
no. The macos 9.0-us is a newly installed system. I have no personal files on this computer.

Hmmm ... this could also be a problem with the nsIFile implementation for the Mac.

sdagley@netscape.com said it may related to 26743. Gordon, sdagley said you are a Mac file system guru, can you help to look at this ?
Putting on PDT+ radar for beta1.

hmmm.... it is an evil deed indeed to assign this to jar (me). I'll copy some folks that might have a shot at doing an assignment (rickg, jevering, clayton), and if that doesn't work, then I'll "pass it along" to one of them. Any volunteers? Suggestions? Thanks, Jim
amasri: what is the name of the hard drive where it is installed? What is the name of the folder where you've installed 5.0?
As this has been occurring on several systems, the question seems irrelevant, but currently my hard drive is "Mac 8500" and 5.0 folder is netscape5-mac-m14.
This has also occured on Sujay & Shrirang's iMacs in the past two weeks, using U.S. systems.
Let's not be hasty here. The bug that trashed sujay and shri's machines was a specific bug with image icon loading (bug 6553) and has been fixed. Don't confuse that with this bug, which, I assume, is happening in current builds.
with 20000211 build, this no longer happens. changing resolution to invalid.
