437982 - No accept/Decline buttons and NS_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED in calIItipItem::getItemList for a particular iTip invitation

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Calendar :: E-mail based Scheduling (iTIP/iMIP), defect)

Description

[Christian Altenschmidt]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14
Build Identifier: Lightning 0.9pre (build 2008060818) on Thunderbird version 2.0.0.14 (20080421)

For a particular iTip invitation for an event unknown to my calendar the Accept/Decline/Tentative buttons won't show up. At the same time the error console gets appended by two errors saying

Error: [Exception... "'Component not initialized' when calling method: [calIItipItem::getItemList]"  nsresult: "0xc1f30001 (NS_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://lightning/content/imip-bar.js :: isUpdateMsg :: line 581"  data: no]
Source File: chrome://lightning/content/imip-bar.js
Line: 581

Other iTip invitations, even from the same person with the same calendar client (Evolution), behave as expected. I have appended the broken(?) invitation, with some minor changes to protect the privacy of all involved people:

IMO duplocate to bug 392465.

Surely not, I'd say, because I don't even see the Accept button, so I have no chance to click it...

Comment 3

[Daniel Boelzle [:dbo]]

but I suspect the same core problem

Comment 4

[Stefan Sitter [:ssitter]]

I think the invitation bar issue can't be reproduced with just the iCalendar data. Could you export the entire email message and attach it here?

Comment 5

[Christian Altenschmidt]

Attachment: The mail containing the invitation

Comment 6

[Christian Altenschmidt]

Sure, see the attachment.

Comment 7

[Daniel Boelzle [:dbo]]

Not going to happen for 0.9.

Comment 9

[Daniel Boelzle [:dbo]]

should be fixed with checkins of bug 392465

Confirm that I am getting this exact bug with Thunderbird 0.9.  No meeting accept/decline invitations and the following errors in the console

Error: [Exception... "'Component not initialized' when calling method: [calIItipItem::getItemList]"  nsresult: "0xc1f30001 (NS_ERROR_NOT_INITIALIZED)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://lightning/content/imip-bar.js :: processRequestMsg :: line 619"  data: no]
