Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/2006070513 Firefox/1.5.0.5 Home Page is not migrated as part of the profile migration. To recreate: 1. Remove your Firefox folder from the Application Support/Mozilla directory 2. Use Mozilla 1.7.x (1.7.13 used) and add some bookmarks, save some passwords, etc..., and set your home page to something like www.slashdot.org 3. Launch Firefox and when the migration wizard comes up choose to migrate data from Mozilla, including the dialog that prompts to set the Home Page to the one used Mozilla 4. After FF starts click on the Home Page icon to go to the home page Expected: You should be redirected to the Home Page set for Mozilla which we migrated, www.slashdot.org for example. Actual: The Firefox Start page with the google search bar appears
this worked in 1.5 and 1.5.0.1. It has been broken since 1.5.0.2 specifically broken between 20060220 and 20060222. cc'ing masayuki. checkin during that time frame is likely suspect.

Attached patch Patch rv1.0 (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
I should not have removed the code of reading/saving by prefService. But we need to save prefs before reset for others.

Comment on attachment 228405 [details] [diff] [review] Patch rv1.0 Sorry. It's very risky. The saving may destroy original(other browser's) profile.
