QT templates do not work for emails not in the address book #321

Closed fvogelmann closed 2 years ago

fvogelmann commented 2 years ago

W10 Pro 21H2 / TB 102.1.2 64-bit / Quicktext 5.2

I have a very simple tempate with the first line

Dear [[CURSOR]] [[TO=lastname]]

So far, it always worked, regardless whether the subject the email is send to is in my address book or not. Recently, that has changed. I cannot use the template on emails to email addresses which are not in my address book. Neither selecting the template from the QT-menue nor using the keyboard shortcut works. Is this a general problem due to the changed address book in TB 102? Can anyone reproduce the problem?

I acutally tracked down the problem to a broken startup cache. Clearing it seems to solve the issue, so I will close it.

Seems I spoke too soon - the problem seems connected to the error message (from the console)

NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED: Component returned failure code: 0x8052000b (NS_ERROR_FILE_CORRUPTED) [mozIStorageStatement.executeStep] SQLiteDirectory.jsm:440 getCardFromProperty resource:///modules/SQLiteDirectory.jsm:440 cardForEmailAddress resource:///modules/AddrBookDirectory.jsm:450 getCardForEmail chrome://quicktext/content/modules/wzQuicktextVar.jsm:1260 getcarddata_to chrome://quicktext/content/modules/wzQuicktextVar.jsm:893 process_to chrome://quicktext/content/modules/wzQuicktextVar.jsm:956 get_to chrome://quicktext/content/modules/wzQuicktextVar.jsm:383 parseText chrome://quicktext/content/modules/wzQuicktextVar.jsm:176 parse chrome://quicktext/content/modules/wzQuicktextVar.jsm:117 insertBody chrome://quicktext/content/quicktext.js:532 insertTemplate chrome://quicktext/content/quicktext.js:372 InterpretGeneratorResume self-hosted:1422 AsyncFunctionNext self-hosted:632

But the address book files are all fine and deleting the startup cache does not help.

IMO it looks like the address book SQLite Database file is corrupted.

Could you try if it works in a 4. Fresh profile? - see Troubleshooting

Also you could try to 6. Isolate errors in existing profiles - see Troubleshooting

Perhaps exporting every entry in the address book, deleting the address book SQLite Database file and reimporting the entries after a Thunderbird restart works.

Thanks, exporting everything, deleting the address book and importing all contacts again finally worked, everything else I tried was in vain.
