No notifications on 3.0 beta 4 and above

Thank you for your bug report.
Could you please check whether there is a preference
"libnotifypopups.showFolder"? There were some problems with that which
should be fixed now. If the preference does exist this'll require some
more investigation.

Thanks for your attention!

Preference "libnotifypopups.showFolder" exists and was set to true. Setting it to false fixed problem with native thunderbird notifications, after that I can set "libnotifypopups.showFolder" again to true and native notifications works fine.

But I still can't see any libnotify notifications.

Same here. My Thunderbird build is from the ubuntu-mozilla-daily PPA:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.6pre) Gecko/20091119 Shredder/3.0.1pre

My libnotifypopups.showFolder setting is set to false, which is the default.

Same here, with TB 3 beta 4 (downloaded from mozilla.org), libnotify 0.1.3, and Kubuntu 9.10. The test notifications look fine, the e-mail notifications do not appear.

libnotifypopups.showFolder does exist. I tried with it set both to true and to false, with no effect.

Maybe I should mention that I do not use the global inbox (the General account), but a dedicated inbox for my account.

Thanks all for your reports.
I will look into this, maybe TB 3 uses a different system for watching a folder for changes.

Same situation after upgrade to TB RC1.

I am on Shredder version 3.0.1pre and I can confirm the behavior exhibited above.

Is any progress happening? Is any help needed?

When I start the extension, I get the error in the Error Console:

Error: mailSessionContractID is not defined
Source File: chrome://libnotifypopups/content/overlay.js
Line: 87

Then when I receive an email, I get the thunderbird notification (not libnotify) and the error:

2009-11-29 10:50:27 gloda.datastore ERROR got error in _asyncTrackerListener.handleError(): 19: constraint failed

I tried this again and got a slightly different error

2009-11-29 10:52:21 gloda.datastore ERROR got error in _asyncTrackerListener.handleError(): 19: PRIMARY KEY must be unique

Thanks for your efforts.
I committed a (possible) fix. Could you please test it? The code is in the branch linked to this report. If you need any help with testing, please let me know.

I now get this error on startup (in error console)

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Not enough arguments [nsIMsgFolderNotificationService.addListener]" nsresult: "0x80570001 (NS_ERROR_XPC_NOT_ENOUGH_ARGS)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://libnotifypopups/content/overlay.js :: anonymous :: line 89" data: no]

The notifications are still thunderbird's

Thanks for persevering though :-)

I had a chat with Standard8 on IRC and he pointed me to this file
http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mailnews/base/src/nsMessengerOSXIntegration.mm

He said the code in the nsMessengerOSXIntegration::Init() section (second-half) is the stuff to be looking at.

Ruben could you see if you could relate this back to Javascript?

Hi Ruben,

Before I invest any effort on this problem, did you made any progress with thunderbird 3.0 ? I plan to install it this week-end. I will have some time to develop a fix to be compatible with 2.0 and 3.0.

Regards,

Okay, gladly, I haven't made any progress.
I will assign this to you.

Almost everything work just fine with Thunderbird 3.0. There was a
constants missing in overlay.js. That about it.

Here the modified files. (I try to push it on launchpad, but my bazaar
config is mess up and I don't have time to waste on it).

Patrik-- I find that using your new files with trunk doesn't make the plugin work for me in TB 3.0. Test notifications work fine, but none are sent on new mail.

Well, I didn't use the trunk but the 1.3 version. Possible it make a
difference. Look in the Error Console to see if there is any JavaScript
Error and plz report them here.

Nothing in the error console. I tried using your updated files in the
0.1.3 release, and still no notifications. This error appears in the
error console, but as I understand it, gloda is unrelated to this plugin:

2009-12-12 23:14:54 gloda.datastore ERROR got error in
_asyncTrackerListener.handleError(): 19: constraint failed

Patric, the new file that you upload works. Thanks for make it works.

Patric, latest changes work for me. Thanks!

Patrik: I committed your changes to trunk.
Could someone please test if they work?

It definitely works!! Only thing I have to do is uncheck Preferences > General > Show an Alert, otherwise I get two alerts. All I need now is the libindicate support :-)

version 3.0.1pre

Thankyou Patric

Good job indeed Patrik!

After seeing that it worked for everyone else, I poked around the source myself. I found the problem and fixed it, submitted as bug #496313 with the attached patch.

hI,
I can't find the overlay.js and install.rdf files that need to be replace in my system.
I am using ubuntu 9.10 with thunderbird 3.0.1pre.
Under which folder should I find them?

thanks

This bug has been fixed in release 0.1.4-beta.
