The wizard displays, I select from file, click the next button and the wizard closes returning me to the bookmarks manager window. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. From the Bookmarks Manager, Select File and choose Import. The Import wizard appears. 2. Select the From File radio button and click next. Actual Results: Nothing. Expected Results: It should have shown a open file dialog to allow choosing of file.

Confirmed with 20040911 Firefox/0.10 on Mac. Not reproduced with 20040911 Firefox/0.10 on WinNT. This is Mac only. marking New and requesting blocking-aviary1.0mac.

I'm getting the same thing in the bookmarks manager. Additionally, choosing "File->Import..." is also broken, the next button on the first page is unresponsive, and I must click "Cancel" to exit the dialog.

Is there anyone on a Mac that could help me debug this? File -> Import being broken might help me, but if I can't see a problem it'll be hard to fix it. I'll try looking this afternoon.

Simple "marketing" comment: This bug is the major reason I can't commit to giving Firefox a full-fledged trial - my accumulated bookmarks are too valuable!

(In reply to comment #3) I have a debug build here, but i'm not sure what should be debugged :-/

Some things to check out. JS Console. When using File -> Import (make sure to try the faulty 'Next' button), does anything pop up? How about when you've gone through the Bookmark Manager's Import and gotten nothing? Debug Console. Same as above. You see anything in the debug console? After Bookmarks Manager -> Import, with the Migration Wizard open, try: DOMi -> Inspect a Window -> Migration Wizard ->Object - Javascript Object Check out 'target -> commandDispatcher -> focusedWindow -> arguments' and '-> arguments -> 0' What are those values set to? Select From File and hit next, then try: DOMi -> Inspect a Window -> Bookmarks Manager ->Object - Javascript Object 'target -> commandDispatcher -> focusedWindow -> fromFile' What is that value set to? Additionally, is Bookmarks Manager -> Import working when not choosing 'From File'?

Two problems: 1. File--Import--Import Wizard (Import Settings and Data from) shows up but clicking Next yield nothing, can only cancel. 2. Bookmarks--Manage Bookmarks---File Import--Import Wizard (Import Bookmarks from...from Files...) clicking Next close the dialog box. I have done a complete uninstall, now I have a copy of Safari bookmark and a copy of Firefox bookmark, but copying to Profile/Bookmark can only resolve one. Where can I download a copy of debug-build to help?

hi ryan, here we go. Bug reproduces with the 1.0 preview and with today's nightly build. - no output in JS console - i can't find a debug console - when i try to open DOMi, it'll just mark the Tools window (inverted) and won't open anything -- while the import wiz is open. (that's another bug!) - when Domi open before import wiz, the two attributes you asked for are bookmarks and "bookmarks" - when i tried to hit 'from file' and 'ok', i couldn't find the 'fromFile' property at all. When I tried to do it again, using the Find function a couple times and maybe doubleclikcing on some stuff in the DomI, it crashed the whole process. I tried again but now I can't even get the DomI to display the correct object (the one of the wizard window) This is when I gave up. Bookmarks Manager does import some Netscape bookmarks. When none of the radio buttons is chosen, the 'next' button is already active (which is a UI bug!!), but cannot be clicked. (very bad UI bug.) Well, sarcastic comment ahead: if people cannot migrate their bookmarks, who the hell would switch from another browser to Firefox? And because I am not getting a proper error message and also no decent UI feedback in the migration wizard, I am getting a really bad user experience -- not good for a first time Firefox user on a Mac :-(

David Reitter: 1)Debug Console is limited to a debug build. If you only use release builds or nightly builds, don't worry about this. 2)While I agree this should block releases, it's not up to me or you to decide, it's up to drivers. 3)Thanks for the testing. Can someone confirm fromFile not existing? And is the File->Import problems a symptop of no default value or just not working at all? The default value issue should be split into a seperate bug report.

It looks to me (user) like it's separate from no default value. The no default value makes the next button do nothing, but when you select "from file", next closes the dialog without an open file dialog.

Ben checked in something that modifies how "fromfile" works from bug 249302, can someone test this on the next round of Mac nightlies?

I just downloaded a nightly, and the importation of a bookmark file seems to have worked ok. I imported a bookmark file that I had exported from firefox and the file "seemed" to have been imported ok. I however did not get a wizard, or the option to select the source of the importation. But this fix works for me. May I close the bug?

Which nightly did you download? Would like to verify, but I cannot find a nightly which doesn't crash or allows an import.

Actually, it seems as the window doesn't have "arguments", in other words this check: if ("arguments" in window && window.arguments.length > 1) returns false

doesn't block 1.0, blocks 1.0 Mac

(aka "Sheet"). From some reaosn, non-modal (note: "dependent" has no effect on mac) dialogs don't have the arug' array on mac. I hope we'll have something better for 1.0mac.

I found it: bug 25040

Hot potato, hot potato. This patch switches the check from arguments to window.opener, so it completely sidesteps the arguments bug. Auto-migrate checks are reverted to the pre-bookmarks method (simplified). Ben making init() call onImportShowPage() allows for further simplification. If this gets review I would recommend not putting it into trunk for the time being, if only to allow us to have something to test the patch in bug 25040.

Mano, would you mind testing this patch for Macs? I've testing automigration, File -> Import, and Bookmarks Import on Win32.

I will test it later today, thanks Ryan.

Comment on attachment 160751 [details] [diff] [review] don't use arguments we may have to go Mano's route, I believe not being modal is creating a race-condition that no user could possible win at.

Comment on attachment 160654 [details] [diff] [review] Ugly workaround (aviary only): make it a modal dialog on mac Restoring Mano's patch, it's the simplest solution that can go in quickly.

When I applied the patch for bug 25040 to my branch, it did not fix the problem. I believe there's a race condition at importBookmarks - http://lxr.mozilla.org/aviarybranch/source/browser/components/bookmarks/content/bookmarks.js#707 If non-modal windows are threaded, the if() clause will fail its check immediately after spawning the new window. Modal windows appear to not be threaded. Besides making it modal, the two solutions I see involve a wait condition or moving all of importBookmarksFromFile (and what it's dependent on) to migration.js.
