Here's a link to the bug report:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=547523
That's exactly a "Migrations fails if it's dawn and the weather is
nice"
report, I don't expect any developer to be able to reproduce and
investigate the problem based on what's in there.
The goal of a bug report is to get it fixed.
Due to that, please include the information you have that a developer
can need to fix it. We know hundreds of cases where migration
works, so
even the summary is wrong.
Robert Kaiser
Nothing in the report is wrong. I supplied the circumstances and
result.
I'm sorry I can't supply you with register dumps.
Given that I can't encompass all possible situations in my lone
setup, I
think you've just said a fix won't be happening, except by accident.
So be it. I'm not the due-diligence sheriff.

Craig, looking at your bugzilla report, you specifally state at Step one
that you un-install SM 1.1.18 before you install SM 2. What happens if
you install SM 2 whilst you still have SM 1.1.18 installed??
Daniel
No, because the best opinion I could find before installing 2.03 was not
to.
Where did you find out that the best opinion was not to??
Through Google links, basically. 'Consensus' may have been putting it
too strongly. Say rather a mix of received/conventional wisdom and
scary stories.
It's something to try. I also see what Robert was saying...and it
may pay me to experiment, trying out different install targets, and
whatever else I can vary along the way. What I find may even be of use
to the developers. :)
My major problem is that my C: partition is pared down so much (for the
sake of fast partition backups, as I mentioned far, far above somewhere)
My C:\ is for system files, my D:\ is for my applications (including
SeaMonkey) and my E:\ is for my SeaMonkey Profile, my Documents and my
Games.
Very similar here. My C: is system, D: is a FAT partition for sharing
stuff between different OSes, E: is for Win apps, and F: is a big
buffer and grab bag for large files, temp directories, and anything I
can't decide what else to do with.
As a bit more complexity, I also have Linux (my main operating system)
on this computer, and its (Linux) SeaMonkey also uses the profile on the
Windows E:\
Very neat, I didn't know that was possible. I used to have Linux but
lost it when a hard disk failed, and had backups for everything but
the Linux. I never got around to replacing it.
it's problematic installing Seamonkey to the default location. And
there's an extended partition sitting on top of C:, complicating things
a tad more.
Don't install SM in the default location if you want (I don't think I've
every had Netscape/Mozilla/SeaMonkey in their default locations), it
should make zero difference!
I haven't either, with Netscape, Mozilla or SM in turn. Always managed
to muddle through somehow. :)
