 Posted: Mon Oct 04, 2004 3:34 pm Post subject: Firefox XUL error?! [SOLVED] |
 |
|
Since upgrading to Firefox 1.0pr to 1.0pr-r2, whenever a dialog box is supposed to pop up (like when you go to close a windows with multiple tabs open, or a url can't be found, etc), an XUL error messages pops up instead! It always says the same thing:
| Code: | XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location: chrome://global/content/commonDialog.xul
Line Number 1, Column 5:
tent/global/commonDialog.xulUT
----^ |
I can't even find that file (commonDialog.xul), what gives? I was running firefox while I was emerging the new version, could this have caused some problem?

| removing my .mozilla directory in my home directory and letting firefox recreate it by just running it again seemed to have fixed this. |

| removing the file: ~/.mozilla/firefox/default.xyz/XUL.mfasl seems to be all that is necessary. the exact name of the default directory varies. |

Thanks, this solution worked for another parsing error involving prefs.xul, or a similarly named file.
