My PC crashed, and now Thunderbird does not display any folders or mails. I can see the settings are fine, but no folders are showing. I tried renaming global-messages-db.sqlite to a backup file, and it created a new database. Now I see the following errors: JavaScript error: resource:///modules/SQLiteDirectory.jsm, line 43: NS_ERROR_STORAGE_BUSY: Component returned failure code: 0x80630001 (NS_ERROR_STORAGE_BUSY) [mozIStorageService.openDatabase] JavaScript error: resource:///modules/SQLiteDirectory.jsm, line 43: NS_ERROR_STORAGE_BUSY: Component returned failure code: 0x80630001 (NS_ERROR_STORAGE_BUSY) [mozIStorageService.openDatabase] console.error: (new TypeError("this.menupopup is null", "chrome://messenger/content/addressbook/menulist-addrbooks.js", 238)) console.debug: "Successfully loaded OpenPGP library librnp.so version 0.16+git20220124.f06439f7.MZLA from /usr/local/lib/thunderbird/librnp.so" console.debug: "Found 0 public keys and 0 secret keys (0 protected, 0 unprotected)" JavaScript error: resource:///modules/calendar/CalStorageDatabase.jsm, line 67: NS_ERROR_STORAGE_BUSY: Component returned failure code: 0x80630001 (NS_ERROR_STORAGE_BUSY) [mozIStorageService.openDatabase] console.error: Calendar:

Chosen solution

This is odd. I used profilemanager to rename the old profile, adding ".crashed" to the name, and then created a new profile. I imported all the mails from the crashed profile, and then closed and started Thunderbird again, using the crashed profile (needed to check a mail account setting). All mails and folders came up again. No idea what fixed the issue with the original profile.

Unless you have a profile to restore, prob easiest is create a new profile.

If you have a partial profile, after starting in the new one you can try importing your address book from the partial.

Forgot to mention, I'm on FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE-p7, using Thunderbird 102.3.1

Very odd. Thanks for posting your results!

I can't explain that. But it does suggest the importance of having backups to fall back on.
