Details

Build: 6/9/99 SeaMonkey build

1. Trigger http://jimbob/jars/a_getfolder_1_userpick.jar
2. Using the form:
   f = Install.GetFolder("User Pick");
   err = Install.AddSubcomponent(regName, jarSrc, f, jarSrc);

RESULT:
Using Install.TRACE shows that err = -3 when AddSubcomponent is attempted.  This
form of AddSubcomponent works with other target folders.  The installscript
aborts gracefully.

The Install.log shows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Acceptance: a_getfolder_1_userpick
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Starting Installation at 06/09/1999 15:37:06

     Aborted Installation at 06/09/1999 15:37:06

     Finished Installation  06/09/1999 15:37:06

EXPECTED RESULT:
Installscript does not abort.  Component is installed to the "User Pick" target
folder.  Component is registered in Version registry.
