Details

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050712 Firefox/1.0+ tested with some known crasher bugs, DrWatson came up, Talkbug was silent. I checked install_status.log and install_wizard.log, ok. Talkbackfiles files are in the extensions/talkback@mozilla.org/components directory, ok. No success trying workaround from Bug 253750 Talkback doesn't launch anymore on crash for non-installer builds due to compreg.dat file (which doesn't have Talkback registered) could it be that em:version in install.rdf is wrong? <Description about="urn:mozilla:install-manifest"> <em:id>talkback@mozilla.org</em:id> <em:version>1.7+</em:version>
There was even more missing, as seen in JS console. Install Location returned an item path that does not exist!

Item Path: C:\PROGRAMME\MOZILLA.ORG\ZIPS\FIREFOX\extensions\talkback@mozilla.org, Location Key: app-global Item ID: talkback@mozilla.org Error: syntax error Source File: https://aus.mozilla.org/update2/0/Firefox/1.0%2B/2005071006/WINNT_x86-msvc/en-US/update.xml Line: 1, Column: 50 Source Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> Reason: I'm using zips in one location, and one exe-installed Firefox in another location, different profiles for Deer Park and Firefox. So I had unpacked Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050710 Firefox/1.0+ in C:\PROGRAMME\MOZILLA.ORG\ZIPS\FIREFOX and had that renamed to C:\PROGRAMME\MOZILLA.ORG\ZIPS\FIREFOX_ to unpack 1.0.6 into a new folder, and renamed that from C:\PROGRAMME\MOZILLA.ORG\ZIPS\FIREFOX to C:\PROGRAMME\MOZILLA.ORG\ZIPS\F1.0.6 so C:\PROGRAMME\MOZILLA.ORG\ZIPS\FIREFOX didn´t exist. I installed Deerpark alpha 2 in a custom installation to: C:\PROGRAMME\MOZILLA.ORG\DeerPark After I found the messages above, I deinstalled and reinstalled, with same result. Started the unzipped deerpark, same result. Renamed the folder holding the unzipped to Firefox, and the unzipped version was working. Closed unzipped version, started installed version, also working, though I highly suspect it isn´t using the extensions in its own folder, but that from the zip. I`m using the same profile for the two deerpark versions, and there is only one extension installed in the profile, LiveHTTPHeaders.
http://talkback-public.mozilla.org/talkback/fastfind.jsp?search=2&type=iid&id=7575648 started 1.8b3: 2005071206 to crash it, talkback came up and i commented and sent. couldn't find the talkbackId, so I searched for the comment and found the record above in fastfind. Talkback tells BuildID 2005071006, so talkback was from the zip version 1.8b3: 2005071006 This bug isn´t about talkback, it is about something going wrong when having multiple profiles, an exe and a zip version in deifferent directories. Feel free to move or resolve invalid, don`t know yet.
