Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 817477
Lightning Menu not displayed
Last modified: 2012-05-18 06:35:16 EDT
Description of problem: After I updated Thunderbirg+Lightning I can't access my calendar anymore as the menu items are not displayed anymore. Lightning is still displayed in the settings menu and I see the calendar icon on the lower right. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): thunderbird-lightning-1.4-1.fc16.x86_64 thunderbird-12.0-1.fc16.x86_64 thunderbird-enigmail-1.4.1-1.fc16.1.x86_64 Additional info: When starting from the console I see some output from the lightning plugin (e.g. "Warning: Calendar … has a dangling E-Mail identity configured."). In Thunderbird's error log I see many error messages such as: Timestamp: 30.04.2012 09:56:33 Error: undefined entity Source File: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-common-sets.xul Line: 422, Column: 7 Source Code: <menu id="task-context-menu-postpone" … Timestamp: 30.04.2012 09:56:33 Error: document.getElementById(kWorkdaysCommand) is null Source File: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-base-view.xml Line: 289 … Timestamp: 30.04.2012 09:56:33 Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER) [calIDateTime.getInTimezone]" nsresult: "0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-base-view.xml :: today :: line 537" data: no] … Timestamp: 30.04.2012 09:56:34 Error: command is null Source File: chrome://calendar/content/calendar-views.js Line: 316 Creating a fresh Thunderbird profile did not help.
The problem is because broken locales (I'm using 'de'). If I start Thunderbird with "LANG=C thunderbird" everything works as expected. Downgrading severity as this is only a problem for some locales. I found this upstream bug which contains more info on a related issue ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736717 ) though the lightning developers consider the bug fixed and the Fedora package seems to use the latest tar ball.
I was able to get Lightning working again with the German locale by running 'mklangsource.sh'+rebuild. So I assume that by the time you generated l10n-1.4.tar.xz the hg repos did not contain the fixed translations.
Sale problem for me using locales fr I just updated to: thunderbird-12.0-1.fc16.x86_64 thunderbird-lightning-1.4-1.fc16.x86_64 and when I start Thunderbird in terminal I get: $ thunderbird null:profile-after-change added added [object ChromeWindow]:mail-startup-done -- Exception object -- + fileName (string) 'chrome://lightning/content/messenger-overlay-sidebar.js' + lineNumber (number) 439 * -- Stack Trace -- ltnSwitch2Calendar()@chrome://lightning/content/messenger-overlay-sidebar.js:439 ([object Object],[object Object])@chrome://lightning/content/messenger-overlay-sidebar.js:87 openTab("calendar",[object Object])@chrome://messenger/content/tabmail.xml:548 oncommand([object XULCommandEvent])@chrome://messenger/content/messenger.xul:1 $ Thunderbird run fine with lightning if I specify LANG=C
For locales fr, problem is fixed by thunderbird-lightning-1.4-2.fc16.x86_64.rpm available on koji: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=316291
yes, works like a charm for me as well.
