just for clarity: save password dialog == confirm dialog that asks Yes, No,
Never to saving a username/passwd.

claudius, is this really a blocker? ie, is there a username listed in the View
Passwords dialog? (from Tasks > Privacy & Security > Password Manager >)

just went thru this to check on linux, and sure enough, there isn't anything
saved in the Stored Passwords dialog.

Sounds like a problem that I checked in a fix for at 7:55 this morning. Here's
what the problem was:
1. Warren made some changes last night so that the username being stored for
mailnews and also ftp was coming up blank. This is a bug and warren knows about
it.
2. The signon viewer attempts to decrypt the username before displaying it.
3. The decrypt code was returning a failure errorcode when being handed a blank
string to decode.
4. The signon viewer was exiting immediately when it got the decryption error
code.
Although the blank username was the original error, I checked in a fix so that
the decryption code will not return an error message on a blank string. That
enabled to the signon viewer to come up in spite of the fact that there was a
blank username.
So you must have done all of the following if you saw the bug this morning:
1. You are running bits that were generated after warren made his change
late last night and before my change of 7:55 this morning
2. You save a password from either mailnews or ftp with this build

Scratch my comment above. I misread the bug report and answered a different
question altogether. I'll look into this one immediately.

Problem is on line 3314 of extensions/wallet/src/wallet.cpp. The numForms
variable is coming up zero so it looks like there are no forms on the page.
I'll investigate further to figure out why that's happening, but offhand it
looks like it might be a dom problem. cc'ing nisheeth.

Assigning this one to nisheeth. There's definitely something wrong with the
dom. From the information that is being passed to it, wallet is unable to get
to the list of forms on the page. Nothing has changed in the wallet code in
this area.

Regular form submits are working fine in this mornings builds. Nisheeth and
I are investigating this bug. This bug should probably not be holding the tree
closed.

joki made some extensive changes to DOM support early this morning. Could that
have caused this problem?

Re-assign to myself. This is unrelated to warren's changes. Reducing the
severity to critical.

Let me stress the importance of this and why it is a blocker. All of wallet and
half of single signon (the half having to do with server-generated logins as
opposed to browser-generated ones) is completly on the floor now because of this
bug. It's a regression that started happening Tuesday morning.
Furthermore, since this appears to be a dom-related bug, I'm surprised other
things are broken by it as well.

This is top priority for me, Steve. I'll take a look at it today.

This is working on today's win32 debug build also.
Steve, can you verify this and tell me whether its ok to close out this bug.
Thanks!

I'm pulling a tree right now and will test it out tonight. If it works, then
I'll close out the bug report.
Comment 18•25 years ago
|

Yep, it's working for me now. So I wonder who broke it and who subsequently
fixed it.
