User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win95; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/20040731 Firefox/0.9.1+

Firefox crashes if starting without profile:


The (german) error output of winsows:

FIREFOX verursachte einen Fehler durch eine ungültige Seite
in Modul FIREFOX.EXE bei 0137:00853491.

But after the crash, a profile is generated. So the next time Firefox starts
without crashing.

I don't really know if this bug depends on bug 249593. But bevore the builds
with the there described problems, I could not reproduce this bug, as I
remember. Than came the builds with the bug 249593 that did in general not work
with Windows 95. The current nightlies run again under Windows 95, but with the
here described problem, if not profile is available.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Sorry, I don't know what "TalkBack incident ID" is. :-)

Sorry, more typing errors:

"Than came the builds..." -> "Then came the builds..."

Mozilla releases nightly and milestone builds with Talkback, which should catch
most crashes and offer to send in a crash report. Developers can retrieve that
crash report and attach it to your bug report if you provide either the Incident
ID (you can get it by running the TalkBack program from /components/talkback/).
Thanks for your help in testing Mozilla and reporting bugs.

OK. I will try to do this. But I can't before next week end, sorry.

Comment 7

[Norbert]

Could you please tell me, where I can get talkback.exe from? I cannot find it in
my Firefox-folder of the nightly build I use.

Comment 8

[Norbert]

Sorry. Latest-trunk nightlies are the only builds that currently run on Windows
95. But they do not include talkback.exe.

All other builds do not run on Windows 95 due to bug 249593.

[Norbert]

Could please someone give me a trunk-build with talkback.exe !?!?!?!?!?!?

Comment 10

[Norbert]

[I set Version to "Trunk". I hope this is correct so.]
