364312 - Bookmarks file got corrupted

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 337750

(Camino Graveyard :: Bookmarks, defect)

Description

[leo0319]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060911 Camino/1.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060911 Camino/1.0.3

After restart, I opened Camino and got a message that bookmarks file could not be read. 

The corrupted bookmarks file was renamed ~/Library/Application Support/Camino/bookmarks-corrupted-1.plist, it was Zero K and didn't contain anything.

All my bookmarks have gone. I think that Camino is the best browser around but this bug is horrible - never had anything like this during 10 years of using the Internet.

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
If you know that Camino has this problem it should auto-backup bookmarks file every session.

Recent nightlies do auto-backup the bookmarks file, and we're looking for a better long-term solution.  Read the bug this is a dupe of for a (much more) full scoop.
