Nightly Builds

2008 April 5 - IMPORTANT NOTICE TO NIGHTLY USERS

We done broke your shit. Due to some changes we had to make for performance reasons, we had to make changes to the database schema. Nightlies after April 4th are NOT compatible with any previous versions. If you're using any version prior to April 4th (including 0.5), please keep this in mind. SteveK blogged all the salient details and a SQL migration script for the extremely adventurous.

We now return you to your regular scheduled nightly programming

Nightly builds are now built nightly. Hurrah! We provide you links to nightlies we've tested and don't think we'd be horribly embarrassed by, as well as links to where you can find all the nightlies if you want to be more daring and try something before we do.

But if you're downloading any of these, you should know better than to expect anything to work 100% properly, right? While the "final" builds to which we link from our front page are supposed to be fully stable, this stuff linked here is well-nigh radioactive from time to time. We make them available to you so you can help us find the bugs and ensure our final releases are the best they can be.

If you are concerned about losing your old profile while testing a nightly (A DISTINCT POSSIBILITY), you can run Songbird -p to launch Songbird into Mozilla's profile manager dialog. More information about backing up or managing your profile may be found here: http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/profile -- remember to use Songbird as the executable name and not Firefox!

  • All Nightly Builds - These get built every night by the server. You tell us if they're any good.
  • Nightly Addons - These are some important addons that also get built every night.
