Description Jesse Glick 1999-12-16 01:10:38 UTC 
Using build 447 in a multiuser install (S: drive home, D: drive user). Under 1.2.2, no problems during restart of IDE, modules correctly loaded. However, after switching to 1.3b, got a huge number o
f exceptions saying "s is not a valid protocol"; no modules were loaded, and of course everything else was busted as a result too.

For whatever reason, installedModules.xml stores a URL attribute for local-disk modules which in fact is the filename, sort of, e.g. "S:/foo/module.jar". Clearly this is not a valid URL, and for some
reason only 1.3b complains about it. Presumably the XML should either store local-disk file names using a different attribute which is never used as a URL, or the proper file: syntax should be used du
ring load and save of the XML.
