71268 - drag 'Cache' to Trash; browser fails to recreate 'Cache' in profile folder

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: Networking: Cache, defect)

Description

[John Morrison]

Overview Description: 
 
  I realize that this code is all about to change, so this is something to
  check in the new cache implementation.

  If I drag the 'Cache' folder from a profile to the Trash, and then start
  mozilla, a file called 'Cache' is created in my profile directory with the
  contents of the start page's HTML. The browser cannot load any images, and
  a reload of the page does not work.

Steps to Reproduce: 
  1) shut down mozilla
  2) go to your profile folder and drag 'Cache' to trash.
  3) start mozilla

Actual Results:   file called 'Cache' created in profile 
Expected Results: 'Cache' folder and subfolders created

Reproducibility: 100%, two Mac OS9.0 systems

Build Date & Platform Bug Found: 2001030608 Mac

Additional Builds and Platforms Tested On: 
  doesn't happen on win32; nothing like 'Trash' on linux os
