309647 - Neither the browser nor the email client will start after the installer completes

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 308838

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Harvey Savage]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20050915 MultiZilla/1.8.1.0a SeaMonkey/1.1a
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20050915 MultiZilla/1.8.1.0a SeaMonkey/1.1a

Neither the browser nor the email client will start after the installer completes. 
build 2005091504 is the last build that installs and runs and I have tried each
new build in turn including the one for 09/22.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download a new nightly build.
2.Either uninstall current build or install on top of current build.
3.The browser component and email client will not attempt to start and run.

Actual Results:  
Nothing happened, Seamonkey would not start and does not appear in the Task
Manager.  I usually uninstall the defective build, sometimes install the 09/15
build on top of new installation and the older build performs as it should.  I
then wait for the next day and try the newest build.

Expected Results:  
After installer completes browser should start, allow you to choose it as
default and operate correctly.

Do:

Start/Run/Open: [path]/seamonkey-1.1a.en-US.win32.installer.exe -greLocal

and that will install and auto-load seamonkey.
