Description crusaderky 2004-07-05 08:37:07 UTC

The "view saved passwords" button in the options menu does nothing.
Yet, I do have some password saved.

I didn't upgrade from a previous version.

Comment 1 crusaderky 2004-07-05 15:33:02 UTC

Exactly, I'm using 0.8-r3. One of these days I'll update to 0.9.1 and make you know if it still happens.

Comment 2 crusaderky 2004-07-08 00:08:08 UTC

doesn't work with 0.9 either.

Comment 3 ra 2004-07-13 10:21:06 UTC

The problem is that your signons.txt file in your profile directory is corrupt.

Remove/rename that file, and then restart firefox. Of course, you will have to enter all your passwords again, but the dialog box should show up.

Comment 4 crusaderky 2004-07-13 10:27:05 UTC

fixed. evidently the corruption was caused by 0.8. I'll make you know if it happens again with 0.9.
