936839 - Dev tool panel is broken in firefox nightly

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia, defect, P1)

Description

[Kevin Grandon :kgrandon]

Normally when we open up gaia in nightly, the dev panel is loaded to the right. With the latest nightly, we're seeing a blank panel instead. Need to figure out why as this is greatly impacting gaia developers.

I'm not seeing too much in the logs, but I do see this error. Not sure if it's related.

* Call to xpconnect wrapped JSObject produced this error:  *
[Exception... "'[JavaScript Error: "closeButton is null" {file: "resource://gre/modules/commonjs/toolkit/loader.js -> resource:///modules/devtools/framework/toolbox.js" line: 197}]' when calling method: [nsIRunnable::run]"  nsresult: "0x80570021 (NS_ERROR_XPC_JAVASCRIPT_ERROR_WITH_DETAILS)"  location: "native frame :: <unknown filename> :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 0"  data: yes]

Another possible error that I see when opening the tools:

************************************************************

I am trying to create a simple test case with this scenario.

We backed out the guilty bug.

This is resolved now in the latest nightly releases. Thanks!

We have landed some code that might cause this bug to appear again (in nightly next week).

I made sure it won't, but just in case… let me know if it's broken again.
