566039 - sessionstore.js does not load or store

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Session Restore, defect)

Description

[Thiemo Walrecht]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

When using my profile the session restore does not work on Linux. When I afterwards use FF 3.6.3 for Windows the session does restore.

Even when I make changes (in tabs and loaded pages) under Linux, they are not stored.

I made a test by deleting sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak. But under Firefox they were not recreated, like under Windows.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Remove sessionstore.js
2. Open Firefox
3. Open a number of bookmarks, each in a separate tab.
4. Close Firefox.
5. Open Firefox (see the tabs are not loaded)
6. Look for sessionstore.js, and see it is not stored.
Actual Results:  
sessionstore.js is not loaded or stored, so the tabs and loaded pages are not stored after a session ends, or loaded when it starts, while it functions under Windows.



Expected Results:  
Tabs and loaded pages should be stored after a session ends, or loaded when it starts, like under Windows.

I submitted the bug on my older browser (3.6.3), but the bug is in 3.6.4

A session of 3.6.3 was hanging. Af I killed that session FF 3.6.4 session restore worked as usual.
