I need to figure out how to reproduce this, but I have a couple (duplicate) entries of:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMLocation.host]"  nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://bandwagon/content/ui/overlays/browserOverlayController.js :: anonymous :: line 86"  data: no]

in my Error Console.

I'm using 0.4 on Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.4; en-US; rv:1.9.1b5pre) Gecko/20090514 Shiretoko/3.5b5pre

Hmm. The extension only accepts refresh events on $amo_host, hence the check for location.host.

This error might be caused by cases where the loaded document doesn't have a location (dynamically created from javascript?).

Anyway, I've put some more error checking in so this exception shouldn't occur.

Please close.

Verified FIXED; haven't yet seen this re-occur, and I was seeing it every day (just couldn't figure out how to get it into this state).

Sadly, seeing this again:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMLocation.host]"  nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://bandwagon/content/ui/overlays/browserOverlayController.js :: anonymous :: line 86"  data: no]

I saw it to during about:config browsing.

I'll just catch the exception and fail silently. We don't care about these errors.

Given that we now catch this, and that Dave thinks this is not a bug and we need not worry about the error, I'll close this off.

Verified FIXED; I no longer see this in the 1.03 extension.
