Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: UI Events & Focus Handling, defect, P1)

Description

[Stephen Sayer]

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.17ss i686; en-US; m18) Gecko/20001010

Anytime I close a window (browser, mail, etc.) Mozilla crashes with a
segmetation fault logging the following error to the console:

./run-mozilla.sh: line 72:  6239 Segmentation fault      $prog ${1+"$@"}

Comment 1

[Jeffrey Baker]

I'm not crashing there on Linux 2000-10-12-21-MTrunk.  It is highly unlikely
that this actually belongs to keyboard navigation.

Comment 2

[Marcello Nuccio]

works for me (linux build id: 101308)

Comment 3

[Stephen Sayer]

Found this on Build ID 2000101015 and should have mentioned that control-w works
OK only when closing the last Mozilla window open (program exits fine). When
there are more than one windows open however it crashes on that build for me
without fail.

Also tested this in KDE as well as Gnome on my Mandrake Linux 7.1 install.

Comment 4

[sairuh (rarely reading bugmail)]

weird, tried doing that (closing via ctrl+w when there's more than 1 browser
window open) using mozilla trunk bits 2000.10.11.08 on linux Redhat 6.2.

stephen, could you pls try this out on a more recent build? thx!

Comment 5

[Stephen Sayer]

Attachment: Debug output and rpm -qi on libgtk+

Comment 6

[Stephen Sayer]

Just attached debug output from build id 101309 run which appears to seg fault
in libgdk (libgtk+ 1.2.7). At the end is rpm -i output on the libgtk+ rpm this
library hails from. Debugging under kde and gnome crash in the same place.

I downloaded the source too and can try to build and run with symbols if necessary.

Comment 7

[don]

Chris, can you take a look at this?

Comment 8

[jorge o. castro]

I see this on Linux 2000102009. Working from last opened to first opened, it
works, when I open multiple and close the "parent" window, mozilla crashes. Now
Ctrl-W doesn't work at all on my build. 

Comment 9

[Chris McAfee]

This worksforme, trunk and branch, linux rh60.
I am using gtk 1.2.3.

Comment 10

[Chris McAfee]

I explored the following vectors: window manager, gtk version,
trunk/branch, debug/opt, and I think this is a gtk version problem.

I get the following assert on pavlov's machine, any wm, trunk & branch,
debug:

Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkwindow.c: line 716 (gdk_window_ref): assertion `window
!= NULL' failed.

optimized does not crash. stephen, do you see this assert?
Pavlov has gtk+ 1.2.8.  Assert does not show up for an optimized
build and does NOT crash as in stephen's case.


 

Comment 11

[Chris McAfee]

oh, I also tried wm-close and file-close instead of ctrl-w,
this only happens for ctrl-w.

Comment 12

[Chris McAfee]

nsbeta1, we need to fix newer gtk usage if necessary

Comment 13

[Chris McAfee]

*** Bug 63342 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 14

[Chris McAfee]

I tried this on rh62 with both gtk 1.2.6 and 1.2.8, debug & opt, I could not
get this to crash and I don't see the assertion we were seeing earlier.
Marking WorksForMe, please reopen if this is still crashing and/or
you have more data.

Comment 15

[Curt Patrick (gone)]

Reopening bug. This bug still in the top 20 in rel N601. (Adding N601 to the 
summary for tracking.) Compares to dupe bug 63342. Questionable that it belongs 
under Keyboard Navigation.

Comment 16

[Chris McAfee]

crash reporters: I need help reproducing this.  I am
guessing that it's a problem with gtk 1.2.7, please
try 1.2.8.  gtk-config --version will tell you what you are running.

I've looked at this a few times and cannot reproduce this.
I don't think this is something we can expect to fix for
nsbeta1/.9 until I can find a way to reproduce this.

Comment 17

[Stephen Sayer]

I haven't seen this crash in any builds since I started running Mandrake 7.2
which uses gtk version 1.2.8 although I do get the assertion. Running Build ID
2001022608 right now I can open a new window then click the display frame to
focus and hit control-w and I get the following assertion in console using my
gtk 1.2.8:
Gdk-CRITICAL **: file gdkwindow.c: line 716 (gdk_window_ref): assertion `window
!= NULL' failed.

In summary I am able to get the assertion but no longer able to reproduce the
crash while running gtk 1.2.8.

Comment 18

[Stephen Sayer]

I believe I may have more relevant information about this. It's looking now that
this may be "My side bar" related in some way. It appears initially that new
windows created by a parent with the side bar enabled are the ones that throw
the assertion when closed with control-w.

For the most part I've previously been running with the side bar showing or
collapsed but not turned off (via F9 or menu).

I'm attaching a test case procedure that for me is repeatable.

I hope this helps!

This is showing up as a topcrash for mozilla 0.8 under the libgdk-1.2.so.0 stack 
signature, but the real crash is at handle_key_release_event. Adding topcrash 
keyword and M08 for tracking. Here is the 
latest stack trace and some talkback info to help reproduce (from the mozilla

Stephen Sayer mentioned something about the sidebar being involved with this 
crash.  The only entry I found with this stack trace and sidebar mentioned in th 
e comments in today's report is:

Comment 25

[Chris McAfee]

lots of mandrake versions of linux showing up in jpatel's query.
I installed gtk/glib 1.2.7, could not get this to crash on rh6.2.
I don't even see any asserts.  Works on 1.2.8.

Off of the 081 radar, marking future for now.
We need someone to debug this on mandrake, if 1.2.8 solves
this problem as I am guessing, this could be a big red herring bug.
What config does Mandrake have?  We should start looking there.

Comment 26

[Chris McAfee]

doron <[e-mail]> reports that mandrake 7.1/gtk 1.2.8 works fine.
I'm tempted to mark this works-for-me, my best guess 
right now is mandrake got caught with gtk 1.2.7 bug of
some kind.  I'll leave this open for a while in case
anyone has other clues or hints.

Comment 27

[Jan Carpenter]

libgdk-1.2.so.0 - handle_key_release_event is no longer showing up on M09 or 
trunk crash reports.  Also, I'm not able to reproduce it, so I'm calling this 
fixed.  If someone else is getting it to happen, please reopen this report.
