104764 - Using the File->Close UI in the any UI window crashes Moz

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[Oliver Jones]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.5) Gecko/20011012
BuildID:    2001101201

Using the File->Close Menu UI in the HTML Source view window crashes Mozilla. 
Or at least it closes every window that Moz has open.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open an HTML page.
2. Choose Page Source from the View menu.
3. Choose Clode from the File menu of the Source View window.

Actual Results:  All Moz windows close.

Expected Results:  Only the Source View window should close.

This is extremely annoying.

[Oliver Jones]

Actually this bug effects all windows not just the source window.  That was just
where I observed it first.

Reporter: 
Have you installed mozilla in a fresh directory ?
can you try it with a new profile ?
(run "mozilla -profilemanager" and create a second additional test profile)

Comment 3

[Oliver Jones]

I started Moz with a new profile "Test" (created it using the profile manager)
and observed the same results.  This is the tty output.

[oliver] singularity:~$ bash2 /usr/bin/mozilla -profilemanager
ProfileManager : CreateNewProfileWithLocales
Profile Name: Test
Profile Dir: /home/oliver/.mozilla
ProfileManager : StartApprunner
profileName passed in: Test
Gdk-ERROR **: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  serial 10366 error_code 3 request_code 15 minor_code 0


Note that all the windows do not dissappear when I click on the close button on
my window manager.

I have also no just tested Moz with a completely new profile (ie, mv .mozilla
moz-bak) and it exibits the same bug.  Ie, closing all windows when File->Close
is used on one window.

i cannot repro this using 2001.10.15.13-trunk comm bits on rh6.2. tested with an
existing profile.

pls reopen if this is still a problem with recent bits.

mass verification of WorksForMe bugs: to find all bugspam pertaining to this,
set your search string to "IfItWorksForSlappyTheSquirrelThenItWFM".

if you think this particular bug is *still* an open issue, please make sure of
the following before reopening:

a. that it's still a problem with ***recent trunk builds*** on the all
appropriate platform[s]

b. provide clear steps to reproduce (unless a good test case is already in the
bug report), making sure it pertains to the original problem (avoid morphing as
much as possible :)

Comment 8

[Oliver Jones]

Bug still exists.

Tested on trunk build 2002010308.

Platform: RedHat Linux 6.2 (Ximian Gnome, gtk+-1.2.10-ximian.21).  I access the
Linux box via a Win32 X11 Server.  

When I choose close from the file menu Moz spits this out and closes all windows:

Gdk-ERROR **: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  serial 15221 error_code 3 request_code 15 minor_code 0

Maybe the bug isn't in Moz but rather in GTK?

Comment 9

[Erik Hensema]

Hmmmm, can you test it with another Xserver, preferably XFree? You /may/ have
hit an X-server bug.

Comment 12

[Vadim Berezniker]

reporter, is this still a problem?

Comment 13

[Oliver Jones]

I believe so.  I've not tested recent builds with Exceed 6.2 Under Win2k.  I've 
stopped using Exceed and now usr my Linux box directly via XFree86 4.1.x.  
XFree doesn't seem to suffer from this 'bug'.  Unless other X servers also 
suffer from the same issue I think you could probably safely ignore this bug.

Comment 14

[Vadim Berezniker]

ok. i'm going to mark this WORKSFORME.

Exceed 6.2 is rather old. 
Could you try 7.1? or at least contact Hummingbird support?

This looks like an issue for them.

mass-verifying WorksForMe bugs.

reopen only if this bug is still a problem with a *recent trunk build*.
