Original Post - 6/3/2008

Hit this error trying to boot up Brief after a reboot of Firefox. Firefox hung after being rebooted (I found info awhile ago about a bug that causes Firefox to write to places.sqlite too much -- includes checking Live Bookmarks for updates and f-synching to prevent data loss during writes; it really wasn't all Flash's fault for all the lockups as I originally believed).

Here's the error:

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIObserverService.removeObserver]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://brief/content/brief.js :: unload :: line 131" data: no]

ancestor, you may want to make sure that Brief isn't writing a lot to brief.sqlite or places.sqlite (especially f-synching to prevent data loss when Brief is in the middle of writing).

I finally figured out the cause of the error I posted in the comment I linked to. When booting Firefox or coming back from a reboot, Brief's "Empty Trash" command is buggy. It's somehow not synched to the Trash Folder's feedview.

You can still empty the trash, but you won't see any changes until you reload Brief. Afterwards, Trash works as normal.

Apparently after a lengthy Firefox session and then rebooting, Brief will lose what folder houses your Live Bookmarks.

From the Error Console:

Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE) [nsIJSCID.getService]" nsresult: "0x80570016 (NS_ERROR_XPC_GS_RETURNED_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Ngamer01/Application%20Data/Mozill... :: anonymous :: line 90" data: no]
