User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:6.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/6.0 Build ID: 20110812102111 Steps to reproduce: Click Tools->Add-ons - then click Browse All Add-ons, or See All Recommended Add-ons, or any "Learn More" links. Actual results: Nothing. No message, no error, nada. I ran thunderbird from the command line to watch for any error message there. Still nothing. Note: links work as expected in email messages. Expected results: Browser should open to url (defined in extensions.getAddons.browseAddons).
Does this also happens in -safe-mode (see http://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/Safe-Mode) ?
Yep. Same think in safe mode (from terminal: thunderbird-3.0 -safe-mode)
I also tried creating a "test" profile (from terminal: thunderbird-3.0 -profilemanager). The links still failed to function. I forgot to mention that when you search for add ons, the "See All Results (#)" link fails as well.
Update. Installation of the ThunderBrowser plugin fixes the issue (but breaks clicking on mailto: links). On install: What are you going to use ThunderBrowser for? Set To: Fix what browser links launch in (Firefox, IE, etc) Browser to Launch Set To: Firefox Now Add-Ons page links work as expected. If I disable or remove ThunderBrowser the links stop working again.
I am considering upgrading to version 6
Please do 3.0 is not supported anymore.
Good plan. Thanks for the assistance!
