Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 232043

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

[Scott]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

If I change the Profile.ini file so that the path points to a different
location, Sunbird still uses the original directory containing the profile data.





Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.copy the folder containing the Sundird data (located in  ....Application
Data\Mozilla\Sunbird\Profiles\xxx) to the root directory and change the
profile.ini file to point to it (changing IsRelative to 0).

2.Now make some new entries in the calander and exit the program

3.Move the data from the root directory back to the original location deleting
the  folder in the root directory as you go. (leave to profile.ini file pointing
to the non existing folder in the root directory)

4.Start up Sunbird and you will see your latest entries are gone and sunbird has
ignored the path in the profiles.ini file.

Actual Results:  
Sunbird continues to use the old profile location although the Profile.ini file
doesn't point to it.

dup of the (now obsolete) bug about calendarManager.rdf using absolute paths.
