Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Andrew Sklyarevsky]

Hello, I successfully download FireFox source, and tried to build it. I use
Visual Studio .NET 7.1, I complete required actions with some exception: make
system always says me about GLIB_PREFIX must be in my $PATH and I copy all
precompiled .dll's into MozTools directory. Problem with xpidl.exe decided. 
After this, I try to build Mozilla again. After approx. 10 minutes I recieve an
error:

.../mozilla/toolkit/locales/en-US/chrome/necko/contents.rdf is really invalid
path. What should I do? My .mozconfig file contents is:

# Options for client.mk.

ac_add_options --enable-application=browser
ac_add_options --enable-optimize

are you building trunk or branch?  the locales-in-toolkit bits aren't landed on
trunk yet, iirc, and your mozconfig suggests that you're building trunk.

And the bug is set to 1.0 branch, so I'm thoroughly confused.

I don't know, I just download sources from
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/1.0/source/firefox-1.0-source.tar.bz2
. I think, that this is branch..

ac_add_options --enable-optimize

ac_add_options --disable-ldap 
ac_add_options --disable-mailnews 
ac_add_options
