Details

Breakpad fails to generate or submit a crash report with this one special crasher.

bug 427396 crashes on my german vista system with 2GB Ram but it's possible that Firefox got killed from the system because of a OOM situation.

The crash log of my en-us SM trunk or en-US FF3b5 contains this info :
[04/06/08 23:21:08] Crash report submission failed: Der Vorgang wurde erfolgreich beendet.

The translation of the german part is something like "the operation was succcessfully completed" which sounds like the opposite of the "submission failed"

This is no server issue because i tested a "normal" crash and that works.

If you can't fix this or if this isn't worth fixing it because it's some OOM case then just close this report.
The dumpfile is empty but that we should handle this case better...
