Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 311332

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Frederic Bezies]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20051020 SeaMonkey/1.1a
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20051020 SeaMonkey/1.1a

Problem very simple to reproduce. Build thunderbird using latest CVS sources
from today.

Launch it one time, then close it. No problem.

Try to launch again => crash on start.

Recent regression, was not happening yesterday.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.See details



Actual Results:  
Thunderbird crash on 2nd start

Expected Results:  
Thunderbird shows its UI and let me use it.



Could it be related to JS fast loading patches recently added ? I noticed if I
kick out compreg.dat, Thunderbird is launching again.

I will install a talkback enabled build to send a tb to help ;)

Try again with a younger nightly build, made on 21st october - 3:32pm
mozilla.org time, grabbed with http://ftp.mozilla.org/

MacOS-X only bug ? I will add corrupted compreg.dat in order to help.

Attachment: zipped corrupted compreg.dat

Here is the zipped compreg.dat. If I delete it, Thunderbird is launching
without problem.

Still crashing, using an homemade build, using source code up-to-date at
yesterday, 10:00pm mozilla.org.

Crashs started on 20 october. What bug could be guilty here ? Fast JS loading ?
Another one ?!

Another one ?

Working : trunk build 2005-10-20-06
Broken : trunk build 2005-10-21-06

So bugs which could be guilty ; I search in mozilla/mail because SM is working.

- bug 306026
- bug 300968 
- bug 285136
- bug 312937

Is there anyway to find a smaller frame ?

Comment 7

[Frederic Bezies]

Looks like bug 279839 is guilty here.

See bug 313268, comment #8 :

"------- Comment #8 From Andrew Schultz 2005-10-23 01:49 PDT [reply] -------
I see this bug with a pristine profile on linux.  I can make the bug go away
temporarily by deleting XUL.mfasl /and/ compreg.dat (deleting one or the other
doesn't help).  The next time I start up, I get this bug again."

Comment 8

[:Gijs (he/him)]

Blocking the fastload bug, as that is reported to be the cause of this bug.

Comment 9

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

This is basically bug 311332 -- all bug 279839 did was cause reregistration.
