45358 - Intermittent crash on Win2K startup [@ nsPipe::nsPipeOutputStream::WriteSegments]

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 46267

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect, P3)

Description

[Stephen P. Morse]

I started the browser about 20 times and an three of those occaisons I got an 
assertion followed by a crash on startup.  So this problem is very intermittent 
but it is real.  Stack trace for both the assertion and the crash are shown 
below.

Assigning to event-handling because that was the most recognizable thing on the 
top of the stack.

Comment 1

[Jerry Baker]

Also seen on Win2k.

Comment 2

[Jay Patel [:jay]]

Putting on [nsbeta2-] radar. Not critical to beta2. 

Comment 3

[David Hyatt]

Mine.

Comment 4

[Jerry Baker]

Check out my Talkback reports. I have submitted about 5 in the last 5 minutes 
trying to start last night's build.

Crashing 50% of the time trying to start the browser is not critical to beta2???

Comment 5

[Stephen P. Morse]

I just got this assertion+crash four times in a row.  The fifth time it started 
up ok.  Removing nsbeta2- to get this back on ptd radar for reconsideration.

Comment 6

[Jerry Baker]

*SPAM*: Adding myself to the CC: list.

Comment 7

[Jay Patel [:jay]]

Putting on [nsbeta2+] radar for beta2 fix. Putting on [NEED INFO] radar. Is this 
a dup of the bug involving a crash when you hit return in the profile manager.

Comment 8

[Jerry Baker]

I am not sure, but my crash happens immediately at startup. There is no profile 
manager, no window, no nothing. Just a crash dialog.

Comment 9

[Jerry Baker]

According to TalkBack, the problem is nsPipe::nsPipeOutputStream::WriteSegments. 
There are 27 crashes in today's crash data on this.

Comment 10

[Jerry Baker]

Maybe this has something to do with it?

XML Error in file 'chrome://navigator/content/navigator.xul', Line Number: 37, 
Col Number: 0, Description: error in processing external entity reference
Source Line: %navigatorDTD;

Comment 11

[Jerry Baker]

Notice that all Talkback crashes on startup in nsPipe2 are on Windows 2000.

Comment 12

[Jay Patel [:jay]]

Adding topcrash keyword and stack signature to summary, this made it to the 3rd 
spot on today's talkback crash list.

Comment 13

[David Hyatt]

Ok, so now you've turned this into two bugs.  A crash in the pipe code is not 
XBL.  Since I already have a bug on the XBL crash, I'm going to give this bug to 
a Necko person to deal with the pipe crash.

Comment 14

[Jerry Baker]

Note that the data in the Talkback reports are incorrect. Notice that the data 
for this crash is the same Saturday, Sunday, and today. I doubt the same number 
of people crashed and entered the same exact comments each day.

Comment 15

[Stephen P. Morse]

So now I'm confused.  I opened this report as an XBL crash and attached a stack 
trace.  jpatel changed this to a pipe crash.  hyatt says he has another bug for 
the xbl crash.  Before converting this bug to something that it wasn't, at least 
give me the number for the xbl crash which this bug originally was. :-/

Comment 16

[Stephen P. Morse]

OK, I found it -- it's bug 42458.  Yes, I agree that the original intent of this 
bug is probably a dup of that one.  I do come in through the profile manager 
every time.  And maybe I randomly alternate between pressing enter versus 
clicking start-mozilla and that's why I was seeing the crash "intermittently".

Comment 17

[Stephen P. Morse]

I must be dyslexic.  The bug I meant to say above is bug 45248, not 42458. 

Comment 18

[harishd]

I see the crash too.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Start the browser
2) Select a profile
3) Press enter ( like Steve suggested ) instead of start-mozilla button.

You should see an assertion followed by a crash ( same stack as mentioned by 
steve ).

Comment 19

[harishd]

But I don't see a crash related to nsPipe.  Steve, are you seeing the nsPipe 
crash?  If not can we close this bug?

Comment 20

[Jerry Baker]

Additionally, if you only have one profile, it crashes without ever displaying 
anything.

Comment 21

[Jerry Baker]

All you have to do is look at these:

There are more there.

Comment 22

[harishd]

Jerry, did you see this crash on NT?

Comment 23

[Jerry Baker]

No. I'm on Win2k.

Comment 24

[Gagan]

I still have to get this to crash for me. But am putting a 7/21 as a worst-case
guess for at least making this not crash. 

Comment 25

[Jerry Baker]

Mozilla is now unusable on WIn2k. I cannot make it start without crashing at 
all. I do not know if the crash is still the same, but there are several 
Talkback reports from me this morning on this one.

TB14510384H
TB14510380E
TB14509726X
TB14509722W

Are just a few.

Comment 26

[harishd]

I think this is totally a win2k problem because I couldn't reproduce the crash 
on NT..at all.

Comment 27

[harishd]

Jerry, did you try changing the profile?  

Comment 28

[Jerry Baker]

The crash occurs even when first starting after deleting Users50 and 
mozregistry.dat. The first start was OK. Then used File -> Quit. Restarted. 
Crash. Talkback report TB14579374G.

Comment 29

[Gagan]

ruslan can you look at it? thanks. 

Comment 30

[Phil "clef" Sweeney]

Not sure if this is the same crash, but I'm on win2k and for the last week (or
so?) if I redownload a nightly build, deltree bin, then reunzip (preserving my
users50 etc), it will crash when I run mozilla, but then not crash after that.

So it's crashing only the first time when I reunzip a new nightly.

Comment 31

[ruslan]

Hmm. Actually I'm using win2k box as my promary dev. box and I have not noticed 
any trouble whatsoever. I take it it's only commercial optimized build behaves 
this way. Any other hints how can I reproduce it on the debug build? Can it be a 
misconfiguration/installer problem?

Comment 32

[Jerry Baker]

I don't use the installer, and there is no possibility of misconfiguration since 
it happens after deleting Users50 and mozregsitry.dat. It occurs about 75% of 
the time here.

Comment 34

[ruslan]

Any chance we can reproduce this on debug builds. From stack traces of this and 
bug and from 46267 it looks like a generic memory corruption of some sort, as 
the stack traces don't make much sense. I seriously doubt this is a problem with 
filetransport or nspipe.

Comment 35

[Kathleen :Brade]

removing ETA of 7/21 since it has come and gone;
add keyword pp since this appears to be platform-specific (W2k)

Comment 36

[John Morrison]

ruslan: I have a mozilla debug build on win2k and I hit this crash
[@ nsPipe::nsPipeOutputStream::WriteSegments] with some regularity.
You are welcome to borrow my machine to have a look.

Comment 37

[leger]

Per gagan, intermittent, moving from [nsbeta2+] to [nsbeta2-]

Comment 38

[Alec Flett]

For me, intermittent is about 50% of the time - with this crash, this basically
makes mozilla on Win2k unusable.

renominating for nsbeta2... this is seriously hurting my productivity!

Comment 39

[David Hyatt]

This happens half the time I run the app.  You're essentially saying that you 
don't care about Win2k as a platform by marking this bug nsbeta2-.  Please 
reconsider this decision.

Comment 40

[David Hyatt]

This crash can also happen as you open and load new windows.  It isn't just a 
startup bug.  It is an intermittent crash that invariably bites you at some 
point during your session.  In that sense, I am ending my browsing sessions 100% 
of the time with this crash.

Comment 41

[John Morrison]

Would the next person in Mt. View to experience this crash in a debug build
please grab ruslan so he can have a look. (Unfortunately, my build has gone
back to not crashing (for now)).

Comment 42

[Alec Flett]

I should add that I haven't been using my Win2k build for daily use, I've been
using linux.. so I've only been Win32 builds for 1-2 minutes at a time before
shutting down

..so I'm probably seeing it as much as hyatt, since I'm crashing 50% of the time
within the first 1-2 minutes of running the browser.. this is really awful.

Comment 43

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

For the record, I also get this. I'm also using Windows 2000. Every other time
I start the browser, it will crash on startup. This happens both with 
Commerical and Mozilla bits.

Comment 44

[ruslan]

And what does the debugger say? Were you able to see at least what it's been 
doing when it crashed. I run win2k all the time (clean install) and I've never 
seen a crash, though every windows is different.

Comment 45

[David Hyatt]

I have three Win2k machines.  They all experience the crash.  

Comment 46

[Warren Harris]

I don't understand why it's pointing to nsPipe2.cpp:651 -- that line just looks 
like an NS_FAILED check. The line before it is a method call to self. However a 
few lines up we exit a lock and indirect through mObserver. Maybe somebody is 
coming along and unsetting mObserver while we're not holding the lock. (?)

Comment 47

[Warren Harris]

Hyatt: Bring your machine in tomorrow and if Ruslan isn't around I'll look at 
it.

Comment 48

[ruslan]

It'll be easy to check on a failing box. mObserver seens to only be set to 
null in Close though. In one of the reports I've seen a different stack - my 
suspition is that the real cause of the crash is elsewhere.

Comment 49

[Alec Flett]

For me the crash line is almost always on a line that involves Flush()... I'll 
post a stack trace the next time I crash.

Comment 50

[leger]

Putting on [nsbeta2+] radar.

Comment 51

[Alec Flett]

Just an added note, I've seen this WAY more during Activation than any other 
time..which is interesting because at that point you don't have a valid cache 
directory..

Comment 52

[ruslan]

Attachment: mObserver patch

Comment 53

[ruslan]

If it's a raise condition on mObserver the attached patch should help. Can 
anybody who's seeing the bug try it?

Comment 54

[Warren Harris]

Your diff looks backwards, but I get the point. Does this fix the problem? 

Note: you probably want to do the same thing in the other places we release the 
lock like this.

Comment 55

[ckritzer (gone)]

Mass update:  changing qacontact to [e-mail]

Comment 56

[leger]

Per todays PR2 open bug triage, moving from [nsbeta2+] to [nsbeta2-]. 
Intermittent...

Comment 57

[Jerry Baker]

What pert of "Mozilla is not usable on Windows 2000" is hard for the PDT team to 
understand?

Comment 58

[Jerry Baker]

And this has been in the Top3 crashes for more than two weeks.

Comment 59

[ruslan]

Warren, do you mind looking into it? Dan just hit and I debugged it a little bit 
on his box. After moving mObserver into temp variable it stated to crash futher 
down with stack being totally corrupt (probably when it gone out of scope and 
tried to delete the observer). There are to relevant threads at the moment: file 
transport thread doing WriteSegments and UI thread doing some javascript after 
receiving OnStopRequest from file/resource channel. We are probably hitting some 
non-thread-safe logic within file/resource protocol.

Comment 60

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

More talkback reports of Win2K startup crashes in nsPipe:
   14959808
   14965883

They both occured while loading NetCenter's homepage IIRC.

Comment 61

[Ben Goodger (use ben at mozilla dot org for email)]

This is intermittent, but very, very frequent. On average, I can successfully 
load the browser only 35% of the time. This is a BAD problem, OK? People will 
download PR2 and find it crashes three or four times in a row and throw it out. 
Does that sound good? Clearing the nsbeta2- again. This is something I'd hold 
ship for. If you don't think so, try running the product on Windows 2000, you 
might change your mind. 

The two W2K machines I use most frequently experience this. If anyone wants to 
see them or use them for debugging purposes they're welcome. 

Comment 62

[Phil "clef" Sweeney]

I've started to get this problem now too.. it's reaaaaally annoying.  You have 
to start and crash Mozilla about 5 times before it will start properly.  I'd 
hate to think what people would think when they grab PR2/M17 and it behaves like 
this.

Comment 63

[David Hyatt]

yes, this is a pull the bits off the wire kind of bug.  we can't ship beta2 
without this being fixed.  The product is completely unusable on Win2k.

Comment 64

[Jerry Baker]

FYI: For those that are not convinced of the severity of this problem by Win2k 
users' testimonials, this bug is now the #1 crasher in Talkback reports.

Comment 65

[Jay Patel [:jay]]

Putting on [nsbeta2+] radar for beta2 fix. 

Comment 66

[ruslan]

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 46267 ***

Comment 67

[leger]

Per nisheeth, marking Verified as a dup.

Comment 68

[Jerry Baker]

Mass removing self from CC list.

[Jerry Baker]

Now I feel sumb because I have to add back. Sorry for the spam.
