The error messages says it is trying to create some file, but that it already exists, and then, bombs out. What file? That's the big question, WHICH FILE!
The folders themselves are ok, as I am using thunderbird with all the folders, in safe-mode.
You may never see "the file" (those are memory addresses); it is quite possible that it is created as a control mechanism internal to the code. You're probably going to remain in the dark unless you can look at the code. The trace may help, but still you need to understand what is logged and that may require the code. And btw, you cannot presume the data is not the culprit just because you're OK in safe-mode.
Have you tried re-creating the folder indices?
I do not want to do that, because then I lose track of what I have read or marked important.
You might also try (after disabling extensions and customization) importing the mail folders into a new profile, one tree at a time if possible.
The folders are remote (IMAP), the data is not important. There are some local folders I can move away.
To move folders I have to create the accounts first, which is the nuisance number one I try to avoid.
Nuisance number two are the nntp folders, with indices I want to keep, because they point to what I have read, or considered important, or what I have in mind to reply to.
Beyond that, and if an upgrade doesn't take care of it, I agree that you may get much better help on a TBird bugzilla or forum.
Yes... because the upgrade is worse, even safe-mode failed.
Can you suggest a Th forum?
