830524 - The Awesome Bar does not work.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[BradlyScottKneisel]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/24.0.1312.52 Safari/537.17

Steps to reproduce:

Information may be typed into the Awesome Bar, but neither hitting Enter nor pressing the Go arrow effect navigation. The Google search on the startup page has identical issues. Otherwise navigating (eg by going into Bookmarks and doubleclicking a past-visited URL) works.


Actual results:

Aurora recognizes that the Go button has been pushed (its shape/colour/shading change to represent I've clicked a button), but it does not then continue to navigate as if the button were working.


Expected results:

Aurora should have navigated forward to the webpage (or search) entered.

It works for me with the latest Aurora (20.0a2) and with Aurora 19.0a2, but more informations regarding this issue are needed.

Bradly, could you please try to reproduce this issue in safe mode (see comment 1) and also try this with a clean profile: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles ?
