41097 - browser crashes with seg fault when attempting to import bookmarks

Status: CLOSED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect, P3)

Description

[O'Shaughnessy Evans]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.73 [en] (X11; I; SunOS 5.7 sun4u; Nav)
BuildID:    2000053021

I run mozilla and try to import a bookmarks file.  I don't even
get a dialog from "Import Bookmarks...." -- the browser crashes
immediately after selecting that option from the "File" dropdown.
All the Mozilla windows disappear and the output terminal says
"Segmentation Fault".

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the "mozilla" script from the nightly build distribution.
2. Open Bookmarks -> Manage Bookmarks....
3. In the "Bookmarks" dialog, open File -> Import Bookmarks....

Actual Results:  The browser crashes immediately.

Expected Results:  It should have allowed me to select a file to import and then
loaded the contents into my mozilla bookmarks.

Here's the output from the terminal where mozilla was run.  All that I did was
start up mozilla, Manage Bookmarks, and then try to Import Bookmarks:

Adding crash to keyword field.

With mozilla-sparc-sun-solaris2.6.tar.gz, build 2000062921, I could import my
netscape bookmarks without problems. No crash. Recommend worksforme.

I concur as i've seen no problem with my 2000070509 (linux) build either.

Comment 5

[O'Shaughnessy Evans]

since i opened this bug (2 years ago!) and just realized that it wasn't marked
as closed, i figured i would mark it so.  i hope that's okay.

in the future, 'VERIFIED -whatever' is the final stage in the bug life cycle
that any of us would ever be concerned with. Don't mark them 'CLOSED'. I'll
leave this alone as it will just generate uncessary mail to fix it back.
