254836 - Mozilla crashes on any http URI

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Scott Dial]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.2; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040808

I recently updated my gentoo installation with a massive "emerge -uaDv world" and 
moved myself up to Mozilla 1.7-r1, and on first load of the browser, it failed to load. If I 
load the browser pointing it to something other than an http address, I do not 
experience the crash, but as soon as I attempt to load any http URI, the browser 
crashes. 
 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
(if you are simulating my gentoo steps) 
0. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge mozilla 
1. mozilla 'http://www.google.com/' 
 
Actual Results:  
bash-2.05b$ mozilla -v; mozilla 
Mozilla 1.7, Copyright (c) 2003-2004 mozilla.org <developer build> 
No running windows found 
/usr/bin/mozilla: line 388: 16523 Segmentation fault      $mozbin "$@"

Is this a problem with a mozilla.org build?  Or only with Gentoo builds?

Comment 2

[Logan Ingalls]

Have you tried a fresh profile?  What version did you upgrade from?

Reporter: Please reopen this bug, if you could reproduce with recent build
(Mozilla Suite 1.7.5 or 1.8b1 or actual nightly build) and could provide
Talkback incident ID.
