To reproduce: 1. Create a new profile (e.g., delete c:\winnt\mozregistry.dat) 2. Open addressbook 3. Click 'new card', fill in required info. 4. Click 'ok' Get asserts (and eventually crash) because Mork cannot open database. I walked up the stack a bit and it looks like the filespec munging is broken: it's trying to tell Mork to open the profile directory as a database, instead of a db file _inside_ the profile directory.

Using today's build, 1999091408M11, Esther reproduced this on her Win98 system and I've reproduced it using NT4.

*** Bug 13846 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

The address book uri passed into AddCardToDatabase() from js is wrong (should be abdirectory://abook.mab, but now pass '...').

I spent some time with waterson this morning on this. He has found the problem and checked in a fix. I am pulling and building now.

Waterson's checkin fixed this problem. Marking fixed.

Not sure if this is completely fixed. Need to investigate more, but it looks like you will crash if you add a card to an empty address book. The next time you add a card to that address book it doesn't crash. Need to investigate more.

Using 19991003M10 build on win98 and 19991001M10 build on mac and linux this is fixed. I can add a new card to an address book already populated and an address book that has no cards. Verified
