Hi,

I cannot use the latest version there must be something that happen
during the upgrade...

Black screen on the web module and I cannot post on usenet.


How can I redo the upgrade (there may be a file to remove or edit).


I'm on linux debian 10 amd64bits.


Hello, Stéphane,

i had a similar behaviour (no menu, browser area etc.) after the update.
The reason was the missing language pack.

The installation of the downloaded language pack xpi file was possible
without problems by opening the file in "--safe-mode".

Afterwards I restarted Seamonkey and everything worked again.


It it was/is the language pack should be fixed in 2.53.4. Actually 2.53.3 but given that the 2.53.2 language packs have the wrong max version the fix will only be effective in 2.53.4.

It looks like the language pack is a good contender. I've just upgraded from 2.53.1 to 2.53.2 myself and had the same thing happen. With the 2.53.1 en-GB language pack installed, the browser window showed the toolbar but no menus and the content area was grey.

Had to start in safe mode to install the updated 2.53.2 en-GB langpack. All was then fine restarting in normal mode. For anyone not aware, updated language packs can be downloaded from <https://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/#langpacks>.

Should this be added to the release notes? Or is this what is described under known issues as:
Previous versions of Language Packs should be removed or disabled otherwise XML 
errors will be shown instead of parts of the application.

I didn't see any XML errors - just no menus and no content.

It sounds like the same thing is likely to happen on upgrade from 2.53.2 to 2.53.3 if I've understood correctly?
