Build: 2001041320 Exact error message: The procedure entry point ?? 0nsInputFileStream@@QAE@ABV@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library xpcom.dll. Get the bug in 2 places (same action though)...one if you click the submit button or two if you type in the information and just hit enter on the keyboard, same issue though.
WORKSFORME Platform: PC OS: Windows 98 Mozilla Build: 2001041704 Try downloading the latest nightlies and creating a new profile and see if that fixes it.
Build: 2001041704 Platform: Windows2000 Exact same error EXCEPT this time after i click ok on the error box, it continues with the action...last time it stopped at the error box with no continuation (?sp).
Build 2001041804 Windows 2000 Have seen this in builds over the last couple of days. Did a search on 'mozilla' at www.google.com to generate the message. After clicking OK, the search goes ahead without incident. Similar behavior on other forms with 'submit' buttons. The xpcom.dll is dated April 18.

Seeing this on all form submissions. Confirming and nominating for mozilla 0.9. Can't do a milestone build with warning dialogs like this. cc'ing scc since this looks like string stuff.

Edward, this may be the same root problem, but bug 71010 cites a different missing entry point than this bug.
This bug has a status of NEW, *and* a resolution of DUPLICATE. Should this even be possible?

Looks like this symbol is only defined in the win32 order file. I talked with dprice about this, and he says that symbols only defined in there should not cause any warnings other than build warnings. I am assigning to him, since it seems to be something on which he is working. If it turns out not to be the case, it will come back to me. He asked that you try rebuilding with this symbol removed from win32.order and see if the problem still exists. Please add your results to this bug. Thanks.

there are a couple of bugs like this floating around. Are people seeing this with debug builds? win32.order is only used when linking optimized builds. The linker is only supposed to throw warnings when it comes accross enties in an order file that aren't in the source. I remain confused and continue to work toward enlightenment.
Still seeing this (same error shown in Steve Zweep's screenshot) on every form submit using 2001-04-24-04 commercial release build on WinNT.
The other similar bug to this is bug 71010. Is there any way to get this into 0.9 (if a fix is close, of course)?
I'm seeing this also when I use the preloader. Then, this box appears everytime the preloader is started and loads the modules. Another case is the automated start of Mozilla after the installation of a nightly using "mozilla-win32-installer.exe". I'm running Win2k.

I have a new set of order files generated from today's branch. Should remove all of the problems people are seeing. Seeking approval from drivers@mozilla.org to check it in.
This has already been checked into the branch, right?
I have attached the error I still get in Build 2001043004. This mainfests itself when I enter data into forms and hit ok/submit/whatever. Not all forms but most e.g. www.google.com
Due to other problems I removed Mozilla and reinstalled it again and the problem has gone.
Same resolution here: Confirmed this was still happening in 2001043004 (Windows installer) build; Did a complete uninstall; Reinstalled same build to a fresh directory ==> problem disappeared.
Same here. However, using the Uninstall Mozilla icon found in the Mozilla-made folder (at install) wanted to remove something in the .8 range so I used Uninstall from Add/Remove Programs, and that worked.
An internal user received this error. I'm just adding the info as it may help. The user is using Windows 2000. Now I want to know if downloading a binary from another server also gives you problems. So how about our own netscape.com? Try http://home.netscape.com/download/0402101/10004-en-win32-6.01-base-128_qual.html . Can this copy install? [Srilakshmi Mudigere] I got the following error when I clicked on the Download Now button nsetscp6.exe - Entry Point Not Fount "The Procedure entry point?close@nsInputStream@@QAEXXZ could not be located in the dynamic link library xpcom.dll" FYI: In fact, I got this same error when I was trying to submit a problem report using the netscape 6.5 browser. When I click OK to the above message, I get the Downloading window which says this... "This file has mime type application/octet-stream and cannot be viewed using Netscape 6. You can open it with another application, or save it to disk" I recollet now that this was the same message I got trying to download the new Netscape 6.5 from sweetlou
