bugs.

This is based on a bug category for launching mozilla from unc's.  
\\129.2.204.205\mozilla is read only.  Mozilla shouldn't have to use Users50 in 
that directory, windows2000 [this bug is against nt4] has a concept of %home% 
[this box has it too, but it's hacked, so ...].

Comment 1

[Asa Dotzler [:asa]]

updating component and owner

Comment 2

[leger]

Putting "crash" in keyword field.

Comment 3

[selmer (gone)]

[e-mail], please add information to the bug about how this crash was
caused and any symptoms you saw while it was happening.  Most of the important
information is missing from this stack trace, it would help to have a full stack
from a debug build.

Comment 4

[selmer (gone)]

Bhuvan, can you try to get the details on this?

Comment 5

[timeless]

[e-mail] I can't reasonably build my own debug build.
If you can create a build that has debug bits for all of the mentioned modules [and 
anything else that would be loaded by this point] I will gladly debug on available machines 
[w2k and w98, sorry the nt4 boxes aren't available].

As for the process, I thought I was clear.
running mozilla from unc paths usually crashes mozilla [early, I've never had it run 
normally].
The unc is readonly.  I can change that [and will in future tests].

I will later try running mozilla on linux from readonly but I expect that works fine.

lastly, whois Bhuvan you didn't CC him.

[Ben Bucksch (:BenB)]

Bug 6464 is related (if not the same).

Comment 7

[Ben Bucksch (:BenB)]

The meta bug got [nsbeta2+].

Comment 8

[racham]

Let us see what we can do in beta3 for this...

Adding nsbeta3 keyword.

Comment 9

[selmer (gone)]

39289 seems to be about the same crash.  6464 is the bug about home directories.  
This bug must be a dup of one of those unless you're claiming you know the crash 
differs from 39289 somehow.  Please close dup or clarify how this crash differs 
from the one in 39289.

Comment 10

[timeless]

This one is for -ProfileWizard
That one is for -CreateProfile
It's quite possible they crash in the same fashion for the same reasons. But 
they are different.  Profile Wizard should be able to run and let me create a 
profile somewhere near d:\temp\users50 and -CreateProfile should be able to do 
this from a command line.  
As for 6464, I don't care.  The two command lines I use should work 
independently of any silly default location of Users50. Therefore I don't 
believe this is a dupe of that.

[e-mail] says the fix for my two bugs will be along the same lines. 
That may be correct, so when they are both fixed they can both be marked as 
such. I think it might be possible for one to be fixed without fixing the other 
[I'm not encouraging this].

racham, thanks for working on this.

Comment 11

[racham]

timeless,

Are you still getting this...?

We got rid of CreateProfile one last week. So, please let me know about this 
one. This we are not able to reproduce.

Comment 12

[timeless]

(QFA)Talkback error: Can't Initialize.
Resolving as fixed, I'll try to find a new bug for talkback (I can use filemon 
to find out what it was doing if people care)

Comment 13

[timeless]

Erm oh yeah, quiting crashes (windows wants to make an event log entry but 
that's full, so i'll need to do something about that)
