Comment 143 for bug 233901

I also confirm that latest nightly build doesn't support ldap
TB 1.0+ (20050721) -> yesterday build .
I also get the error while calling getLdapAttributes() from prefcall.js, error :

Netscape.cfg/AutoConfig failed. Please contact your System Administator
 Error: getLDAPAttibutes failed: [Exception... "Component returned failure code:
0x80570018 (NS_ERROR_XPC_BAD_IID)[nsIJSCID.createInstance]" nsresult:
"0x80570018 (NS_ERROR_XPC_BAD_IID)" Location: "JS frame :: file:///c:\Program
Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\defaults\autoconfig\prefcalls.js :: getLDAPAttributes
:: line 176" data:no]

however, other autoconf settings do work , but we cannot set pref from ldap
values which is very anoying for autoconfiguring email preferences ... :-(

I also tested the latest stable TB 1.0.6 (20050716), I was positively surprised
to see the presence of the autoconfig sub-directory, which mean that is is now
ship with --enable-extensions=pref , good !, unfortunatly, I don't know why but
TB 1.0.6 complety ingore autoconfig, although I did put in pref/all.js :
//autoconfig
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // for MCD .cfg files
pref('general.config.filename', 'thunderbird.cfg'); // for MCD .cfg files
and put thunderbird.cfg in the root directory of TB, nothing is read :-( .

I'am afraid to be forced to use again mozilla (probably 1.7.10 for which
everything works fine) instead of firefox/thinderbird for our next september
academic year .
Thanks to let me know if there's a possible solution before .
