User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7 The latest version of Netscape is 8.0.3.3. If the maxVersion field for the Netscape application, {3db10fab-e461-4c80-8b97-957ad5f8ea47}, in an extension's install.rdf file is less than 8.0.3.3, Netscape will not allow the extension to install. If the maxVersion is set to 8.0.3, Netscape will reject the extension install. The addons.mozilla.org site will not allow any extension to be uploaded that contains a maxVersion of greater than 8.0.3 for Netscape. This means that no extensions that are compatible with the current version of Netscape 8.0 can be uploaded. The maxVersion check should be raised to less than or equal to 8.0.3.3. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create an extension that is compatible with Netscape 8.0.3.3 and use a maxVersion of 8.0.3.3. 2. Try to upload it through the developer's page on https://addons.mozilla.org/developers/main.php Actual Results: Received the following error: Error! The MaxAppVer for Netscape of 8.0.3.3 in install.rdf is invalid. Errors were encountered during install.rdf checking... Aborting... Expected Results: Allowed the extension to be uploaded since a maxVersion of 8.0.3.3 is required to install on the latest version of Netscape.

You should change the summary to something like "Cannot upload Netscape extension if maxVersion is higher than 8.0.3, but 8.0.3.3 is required for extensions to install".... The current one doesn't make sense, though the description does. :P

This has been marked as resolved, but the original bug was never completely fixed since extensions still can't be installed in Netscape. A work around would be to put the maxVersion at 8.0.4 which would allow extensions to be uploaded that could be installed in Netscape 8.0.3.3. I think it is highly unlikely Netscape will release a 8.0.4 that is incompatible with current extensions.
Summary: Cannot upload extension if Netscape's maxVersion is greater than 1.0.3 (need 1.0.3.3 to install) → Cannot upload extension if Netscape's maxVersion is greater than 1.0.3 but 8.0.3.3 is required for extensions to install
