281344 - Can't list/open Calendar files

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

[Vincent Lefevre]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux ppc; en-US; rv:1.8a5) Gecko/20041230
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux ppc; en-US; rv:1.8a5) Gecko/20041230

With recent versions (a 20041230 version from CVS was working), I cannot open
Calendar files in any way, with either Mozilla+Calendar or Sunbird. More than
the problem with opening these files, Mozilla no longer lists any calendar in
the "Calendars" tab.

Note: When starting sunbird from a terminal (to get messages), I get in the
terminal:

error creating table cal_calendars -- probably already exists

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start sunbird.
2. Click on File -> Open Calendar File...
Actual Results:  
Nothing happens.

Expected Results:  
A dialog window should appear to open a Calendar file.

Setting as "Blocker" since it is not possible to use Calendar any longer. I can
create new events, but they can't be saved anyway.

Note: I recall that this bug is quite recent (it wasn't present on December 30).
Therefore it can't be seen as a duplicate of bug 212792 for instance.

trunk calendar builds are known to be unusable for normal use.

not a blocker at this stage.

This WORKSFORME on both trunk and, of course, with the stable 0.2.  Is there any
reason to keep it open?

I'm closing the bug. I no longer use Mozilla anyway since it was often crashing
on startup. The Calendar extension for Firefox works well on Linux/x86. But I
can't test Sunbird on Linux/ppc. I've just submitted bug 294522 about this problem.

The bugspam monkeys have been set free and are feeding on Calendar :: General. Be afraid for your sanity!
