85731 - DLL error in xpcom.dll on startup

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Ryan Grove]

After running mozilla.exe, the following error message pops up, then the program
continues to load normally:

--
Title: NSPR:EventReceiver: mozilla.exe - Entry Point Not Found

Description: 
The procedure entry point ??_7nsLocalString@@6B@ could not be located in the
dynamic link library xpcom.dll.
--

This error is present in 0.9.1 and every nightly build I've tried since the
release of 0.9.1. I use the zipped binary Win32-Talkback version of Mozilla (not
the installer), and have reproduced this error message on two Windows 2000 systems.

Are you doing a clean install (wiping out the previous mozilla install before
installing)?

Comment 2

[Ryan Grove]

No, I wasn't doing a clean install. However, after wiping out the old directory
and installing the latest nightly, the DLL error seems to have disappeared. D'oh.

resolving worksforme.  You probably had a stale component lying around that was
incorrectly linking with the rest of the app.
