(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, defect)

Description

[Henry N.]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; de; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090730 SUSE/3.5.2-2.1 Firefox/3.5.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); de; rv:1.9.1.4pre) Gecko/20090915 Thunderbird/3.0b4

Have a POP3 account with 11260 unread messages and some more, that was sorted by threads, clicked the "date" column, than go into menu View | Sort by | Grouped by Sort.
As result the message list is empty now, and the error console has follow message every time I entered my inbox folder:

Error: sortType is undefined
Source: file:///usr/local/thunderbird-20090915-30b4/modules/dbViewWrapper.js
Line: 1534

Error: this.view.selection is null

Zeile: 0

The follow error messages have seen also there before. I don't know the conjunction with this error, so I list it also:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE) [nsIMsgDBView.open]"  nsresult: "0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE)"  location: "JS frame :: file:///usr/local/thunderbird/modules/dbViewWrapper.js :: DBViewWrapper__createView :: line 1083"  data: no]

Reproducible: Didn't try




Was initiated by litmus test "Testcases - : Message Grouping"

The menu "View | Sort by ...", "Messages ..." and "Threads..." are grayed.
"Index recovery" does count up to 11252 unread messages in the (left) folder list, but message list still is empty. After restart TB the inbox folder has 11260 unread messages - in the folder count. The list is still empty.

Hard to reproducible, because I don't know what mouse events results for the bug. I have recovered 11540 messages from a backup and tryed the menu "View | Sort by | Grouped by Sort" from various sortings (by date, by subject, thredded). At the same time this pop3 was loading new messages and Gloda is indexing my IMAP on other account.

Here is the initial error message:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE) [nsIMsgDBView.open]"  nsresult: "0x80070057 (NS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_VALUE)"  location: "JS frame :: file:///usr/local/thunderbird/modules/dbViewWrapper.js :: DBViewWrapper__createView :: line 1083"  data: no]

This bug is critical because losing access users inbox is not very nice.

After playing more with "Grouped by Sort" I got a list with repeating the same entry:
+ older messages
+ older messages
... ~800 times the same text ...
+ older messages
+ two weeks before
+ two weeks before
... ~160 times the same text ...
+ two weeks before
+ last week
+ last week
... ~40 times the same text ...
+ last week

After mouse click on "older messages" got this error in error console:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsITreeView.toggleOpenState]"  nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://global/content/bindings/tree.xml :: changeOpenState :: line 228"  data: no]

After restarting TB, the mails are sorted in the 3 categories (with one line per category).

Seams me the same as bug 517467.
