After I moved my profile to a network drive (manually by editing profiles.ini)
FF became unstable. Two crashes are reported in POPUPLOG.OS2 (see below). I
moved the profile back to a local drive and the problem seems gone.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. move profile to a network drive
2. edit profiles.ini: Isrelative=0, Path=k:\daten\....
3. browse (e. g. www.sap.com)

Actual Results:  
crash

Expected Results:  
smooth operation

I'm running eCS 1.1 (German)

is Talkback available on os/2? if yes, please send reports and post talkback ids
here. thanks.

Comment 2

[Mike Connor [:mconnor]]

OS/2 doesn't have talkback.  We only have talkback on official Windows/Linux/OS
X builds.

I have tested this problem with OS/2 and Firefox 20041207 build. I could not
recreate the problem. The steps I have followed are :
1. Install Firefox.
2. Create a profile called "test" in C:\temp1 directory.
3. Start Firefox.
4. Close Firefox.
5. Open profiles.ini file and change C:\temp1 to W:\temp1... Where W: is a
network drive. and Save profiles.ini file.
6. Copied C:\temp1 to W:\temp1 with xcopy command.
7. Restart Firefox.  I did not see any crash.

Please Answer the following questions:
1. Is the problem recreatable on OS/2 or eCS alone?
2. Is the problem Consistent?
3. Please let me know if there is any change in the recreation steps.

Comment 4

[Peter Weilbacher]

I couldn't recreate it either, but I don't have a network drive to test.

The procedure of Marcus and Muni seems to be different in that Marcus _moved_
the profile while Muni still has the old path. Perhaps there is something in the
profile that still accesses the old location (like the cache path)?

Peter,
  I have also tried recreation by performing c:\rm -rf temp1 (i.e. removing
c:\temp1 directory) start the Firefox in a fresh window. Still I could not
recreate the problem. Please put more details to continue working on this problem.

WFM per debugging and lack of reporter input.
