178501 - Mozilla gtk2 port crashes on plugins/javascript

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 182726

(Core Graveyard :: Embedding: GTK Widget, defect)

Description

[redtux]

I have a recurring problem with mozilla and the gtk2 port - I get a silent crash
with the following output from the terminal

Gtk-WARNING **: gtksocket.c:957Can't add non-GtkPlug to GtkSocket

There isn't enough here to even begin to diagnose this.  URL where you get this?
 Anything?

Comment 2

Ok - more detail
This occurs on every page that has flash on it (and realplayer), java seems Ok
As a test you can try http://www.cyborg-group.com

It appears to be something specific to gtk-2.1, under gtk-2.0.6 it seems to work OK.

Has been a problem for ages and is still there with the gtk2 stuff in the trunk.
All packages built with gcc-2.96

Sites with java content which were crashers now wfm, including
<a ref="http://www.chelseafc.com/index.asp">http://www.chelseafc.com/index.asp</a>
from 
<a href="http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177665">177665</a>.

I should also test a flash site with the flash plugin removed.

I'm using a gcc 3.2 on RH8.0 build from cvs tree with gtk2 and xft options.

I'll test the patch tonight

Other general comments.

Personally never seen java crashes (as opposed to javascript)
(This  may be because I always compile with gcc2.96)

On g2 .0.2 it does work, but I have the oddity that my ttf fonts dont show up
there either - dont know why yet, so that may be linked, not sure.

Also printing on drop-down lists pages (bug #181404 ) also works on g2.0.2 but
not  on g2.1

Also I have not had crashes on flash pages, when I remove the plugin.

Marking worksforme.  Also, use gcc 2.96 not gcc 3.2 because of binary
compatibility problems with the plugins.

As the bug reporter I always use gcc2.96 and this is a gtk2.1 problem and is a
reproducible crash

Mozilla still crashes silently with latest crash

Comment 12

[Gaute Lindkvist]

I reported bug # 177665 which has been marked as a dupe. The latest binary
snapshots for 1.3a with GTK2 and XFT from
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/experimental/gtk2 does not show this
behavior anymore.

Comment 13

Not too sure that 177665 is really a dupe.
This bug is a crash on pages when the flash plugin is available - not when it is
not, as in 177665

Comment 14

[Raymond Sneekes]

Just to let you know.
With the snapshot I checked out today plugins are working for me.
Thanks

Marking as a dup, based on comments.
