Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Installer: XPInstall Engine, defect)

Build: 2001-06-07-06-0.9.1(WIN)

1. From 6.0/6.01, open 
ftp://sweetlou/products/client/seamonkey/windows/32bit/x86/2001-06-07-06-0.9.1/u
pdate.html
2. Click Launch XPInstall button
3. Click OK button from Items to Install dialog
4. Exit browser and restart

RESULT:
For WinNT, Entry Point Not Found error dialogs keep appearing after dismissing 
them.  For Win98, the browser appears to have upgraded successfully.  
Install.log shows an error on both WinNT and Win98.  I don't know if this error 
has anything to do with this failed upgrade, but it is a discrepancy.

** Running Pre-Mozilla 0.9.1
     Post-install Cleanup Utility
     ----------------------------

     ** Line: 505	fProgram is not defined

     Install **FAILED** with error -229

     Install **FAILED** with error -229
     Finished Installation  06/07/2001 12:29:33

EXPECTED RESULT:
No errors from Install.log.  No error dialogs when starting up browser.

Nominating for Beta.  This breaks the ability to update from website.  Worse is 
that it breaks the current working version (6.0/6.01) :-(

Change this line from:

to:
+  fProgram                  = getFolder("Program");

and then r=sgehani.
