not sure if this is the right component --found this on a 7:15pm-ish debug build on linux. basically, if i try to open an ftp url from either the URL bar or the Open Web Location dialog, mozilla opens up a bunch of blank browser windows...indefinitely. (well, i hit ^C in the console to stop it. :) to repro: 1. go to the URL bar --or, open the Open Web Location dialog-- and enter ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/ 2. hit enter. *Important* clicking on a link with an ftp url will *not* exhibit this problem [doing that works fine]. result: watch the windows open. get the following console errors each time a window opened: WEBSHELL+ = 6 WEBSHELL+ = 7 Enabling Quirk StyleSheet JavaScript error: chrome://communicator/content/securityUI.js line 30: Components.classes['@mozilla.org/secure_browser_ui;1'] has no properties Error loading URL ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/ : 2152398850 WEBSHELL+ = 8 anyone else see this?
spoke w/jag --the console error above prolly isn't relevant, but i filed bug 76292 it. anyhow, i'll check to see if this occurs with a verification build...
not a problem with the 2001.04.16.10 verification build.

This doesn't seam limited to ftp URLs, I also see this if I enter a file:// URL into the urlbar. This is with 2001041621 on Linux.
This works for me on my own opt build from 2001-04-17, so it might have been fixed.
seen on commercial builds: windows 2001-04-17-06-trunk mac 2001-04-17-04-trunk
I see this on the pre-8AM win32 build from today - 2001-04-17-06-trunk
Spam URIloader/download folks.
I just saw this on a Mac build from 4am *yesterday*. I ended up having to bail from the debugger. It was awful! I *think* I produced it by loading "thrify.com" (note: typo!)

rebuilding tree now. since it is both ftp and file, this may be a directory viewer problem. Can anyone with a build from yesterday back out this change: cvs update -j1.73 -j1.72 mozilla/xpfe/components/directory/nsDirectoryViewer.cpp
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
I don't think its me - file:// urls don't go through nsDirectoryViewer.cpp. I'm rebuilding now, but I patched nsCRT.h, so it'll be another half hour to an hour or so.
I backed myself out and still see this. When I try to open a file:// uri using the urlbar I get: The link to file:/// was blocked by the security manager. Remote content may not link to local content. Error loading URL file:/// : 2152398850 on the console, (before the never-ending windows) which may be a separate bug, but is definately wrong, and a smoketest blocker as well. so I'm ccing mstoltz anyway, due to the security patches checked in yesterday :)
mail sent to hook.
FWIW, I see lots of errors (maybe one for each window) of: Error loading URL file:///home/dbaron/webtest/ : 2152398850 where: js> Number(2152398850).toString(16) 804b0002 and 0x804b0002 is (I think) NS_BINDING_ABORTED.
On a mac build from yesterday, I simply see a failure to load the FTP url: Error loading URL ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/ : 2152398849 but no window spawning.
In classic skin, I get: ###!!! ASSERTION: Error scroll port has too many children: 'count <= 1', file nsScrollPortView.cpp, line 415 Error loading URL ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/ : 2152398850
I have a Windows build from yesterday which does not have the problem and a mac build from today which does. Starting with the URILoader, I'll see where they diverge.
