close

 Priority:  normal       |      Milestone:                
Component:  Torbutton    |        Version:  Torbutton: 1.4

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 When Torbutton has been active (ie. traffic is routed through the Tor
 network), Iceweasel (same as Firefox) is then closed, the following
 exception will be thrown on a subsequent start of the browser.
 {{{
 [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff
 (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIPrefBranch2.getBoolPref]"  nsresult: "0x8000ffff
 (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)"  location: "JS frame ::
 chrome://torbutton/content/torbutton.js :: torbutton_update_status :: line
 1947"  data: no]
 }}}
 The error message before the Exception reads, that Torbutton was unable to
 update the Torbutton settings directory.

 This bug has started to appear since I've upgraded to
 [http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/i/iceweasel/current/changelog#version8.0_b4-1
 8.0~b4-1 (ie. 8.0 Beta 4) of Iceweasel], with 7.0.1 it worked. The
 Torbutton extension is at 1.4.4.1.
