From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021003 Description of problem: If I log out of KDE while mozilla and mozilla-mail are up and running, and I select "save session", when I log back in, mozilla-mail starts up without any mail servers. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mozilla-1.0.1-26 mozilla-psm-1.0.1-26 mozilla-mail-1.0.1-26 mozilla-nss-1.0.1-26 mozilla-nspr-1.0.1-26 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Login, start mozilla, and mozilla-mail 2.logout, select "save session" 3.re-login Actual Results: Mozilla mail starts from last saved session, but has no mail servers. Expected Results: Mozilla-mail should start up and load preferences and mail server prefs. Additional info: This seemed to start after the last up2date on mozilla.
mozilla and mozilla-mail have to be closed, the re-opened to get mail functional again.
Mozilla isn't session aware. Are you losing settings? Or do they show up on the next restart? What happens if you don't leave it running while logging out of your session?
The mail server configuration is not lost permamently. If I don't leave it running, or course, it load fine. This only happens when it is left running during a logout with "Save Session" checked. This ALWAYS worked before, where I have my konsole, gkrellm, mozilla, etc. loaded upon login.
Can you attach a screenshot of what's happening? I need a little more context.
Created attachment 84764 [details] Screen looks like this after re-loging in. Browser is fine, just mail loses everything.
Ahh. I think I know what's happening here. I saw this last night while I was trying to work on another problem. I'll bet that KDE is running the mozilla-bin file directly instead of running it through the wrapper script. This means that LD_LIBRARY_PATH isn't being set properly and mozilla isn't able to load some of its libraries, causing that really wierd problem. (I'll bet it can't find libmsgbaseutil.so.) You can do one of two things: 1. Turn of KDE's "I'm going to guess how to restart this program even though it's not really session aware" functionality. 2. Add /usr/lib/mozilla-<version>/ to /etc/ld.so.conf
