NS_ERROR_FAILURE: Component returned failure code: 0x80004005

Post by Falna » 2016-04-21, 12:08

Occasionally I log into a web server to perform maintenance over SFTP using FireFTP - though I presume this is a PM issue, not an extension issue.
While executing a shell script I'm getting this error message:
  • Error message= NS_ERROR_FAILURE: Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIControllers.removeController]
    URL= chrome://global/content/bindings/autocomplete.xml
    Line Number= 70
Apart from generating the message it seems that nothing else is affected, and the script completes without problem (maybe why I haven't reported it previously - or could be a bug introduced since I last ran this script at the start of the year).

It seems that this is probably the same bug reported at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=873355 - which got patched, so maybe easy to fix?

In relation to the other standard queries:
  • Your Operating system
    - Windows 8.1
  • The exact version of Pale Moon you are using (desktop/portable. 32/64 bits, exact version number)
    - 26.2.1 (x86)
  • Steps to reproduce the problem
    - Using FireFTP, open an SFTP connection to a web server
    - From FireFTP's Tools menu, select 'Custom Command'
    - execute a shell script on the command line
  • Expected result
    - script completes
  • Actual result
    - script completes, but with the above error generated some 30 to 60 seconds after execution starts
This error is reliably repeatable on my machine, including after restarting & clearing cache and cookies.
