Go to about:crashes and post your crash ID.

Easy to reproduce.  (3.0 on Linux)

Just moving around a new folder doesn't seem to do it by itself.

> Easy to reproduce.

Correction:  I reproduced it quickly.  I can't seem to get it again.  :/

Comment 3

[checkit]

When I go to about:crashes, it says "No crash reports have been submitted."

Also, I realize now that this bug is not always reproducible (I made a mistake filling out my original bug report).  But this crash happens to me at least a half a dozen times a week (I create a lot of folders in the Bookmarks sidebar), so I know it's not a one-off thing.

[Dave Garrett]

If there's anything you can add to your STR that helps make it more reproducible, please do.  In any case, I got a report once, so we have something to start from at least.  However, the end point of this trace is fairly generic, even though there's quite a lot more to the report.  It dies somewhere inside the ENUMERATE_ALL_BOOKMARKS_OBSERVERS macro.

I'll CC guy who wrote it.  (added in bug 383572)

Attachment: The dialog that shows when Firefox crashes (no crash dump file)

Comment 6

[checkit]

Ok, I uploaded the dialog that comes up when Firefox crashes.  Unfortunately, I don't think it will be very helpful:

Firefox had a problem and crashed. We'll try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts.

Unfortunately the crash reporter is unable to submit a crash report.

Details: The application did not leave a crash dump file.

This bug has been happening since 3.0.  It seems to happen just about every time -- sometimes if I close the bookmarks sidebar - then re-open it after creating the folder -- I can drag it without crashing.

Paul, could you please create a fresh profile (http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/profile) and try to reproduce it there? It would be great if you can give us steps how to reproduce it in a new profile (without any modifications and add-ons running). Thanks.

Marking as dupe of bug 454457 which already contains more information.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
