I tried to submit an app on marketplace.mozilla.org, but something failed in step 2) App Manifest, maybe an encoding error of Norwegian letters in my manifest file.
When trying to go back and resubmit i get the error message: "An app already exists on this domain; only one app per domain is allowed."

How can i resume my previous submission, or delete it and start over?

Thank you for submitting an app, but sorry to hear that you found a bug.

There's a my submissions page here:

https://marketplace.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/submissions

Where you can resume and delete, however, it might not show your app yet.

Could you send me a copy of your manifest or a link to your manifest?
Then I can test it out file a bug on this.

Thanks

The (partially) submitted app does not appear on that page - yet.

Manifest file: http://bartebuss.no/manifest.webapp
I've now changed it to UTF-8 without BOM, I guess it was ISO-8859-1/latin-1 before.

That manifest passes successfully in my dev server. Any chance you
could reset it to ISO-8859-1/latin-1 so I can see if it fails?

Here are three variants:

http://bartebuss.no/manifest.webapp (UTF-8 without BOM)
http://bartebuss.no/manifest-ansi.webapp
http://bartebuss.no/manifest-utf8-with-bom.webapp

All files are created/edited in Notepad++ and contains the Norwegian special character "å" (å)
