965047 - Cannot debug Browser app with App Manager

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 958002

(DevTools Graveyard :: WebIDE, defect)

Description

[Botond Ballo [:botond]]

This used to work earlier today (in fact I was successfully debugging the Browser app when I ran into and filed bug 965000). I'm really not sure what changed. If others can't reproduce it, I would be grateful for some ideas on how I could diagnose the issue.

STR:
  1. Connect App Manager to a B2G device that has the pref for
     debugging certified apps enabled.
  2. Start the Browser app (either from the phone or from App Manager).
  3. Press 'Debug' on the Browser app's entry under "Installed Apps".

Expected:
  A new tab (under "Apps" and "Device") appears for the Browser app and
  the developer tools are shown for that tab.

Actual:
  The "Device" tab is de-selected, but no new tab appears. The main
  view of App Manager is empty.

We talked about this briefly on IRC.  It also works fine for the 1.3 simulator, so I'm suspecting recent change in Gaia master, but maybe we'd need to get a regression window to figure it out since there weren't any log messages to go on.

Botond, did you have local Gaia changes applied when you saw this, or should I be able to replicate with a fresh Gaia clone?

I didn't have local Gaia changes.

Just tried with App Manager running in a newer Nightly (Jan 24 vs. Jan 08) and now it is working again. Maybe that was the problem?
