105056 - Switching sidebar while the first has not finished loading crashes Mozilla.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 101423

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[Daniel Bachran]

I am using Mozilla 2001-10-15-10 (pre-built sea-installer.exe for Windows),
along with the MozillaZine Sidebar.

It takes some time to load this sidebar initially. Mozilla displays the spinning
arrows. While the MozillaZine Sidebar is being loaded I switched to the History
Sidebar, which crashed Mozilla.

Opening the History Sidebar _after_ the MozillaZine Sidebar finished loading is
no problem though.

Detailed Mozilla Version:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.5+) Gecko/20011015

Can't reproduce the crash on my Win2K box.  Reporter, do you have a stack trace
you could attach to the bug?

Sujay,
Have you been able to reproduce this on WinNT 4.0?

Hello Samir,

since I have no Mozilla source code I am only able to supply the call stack
(provided by MS Developer Studio):

GKLAYOUT! 603cad4e()
GKLAYOUT! 603a7135()
GKLAYOUT! 603a70c9()
GKLAYOUT! 603a53d5()
GKLAYOUT! 603aa6c3()
GKCONTENT! 01e73d1c()
GKLAYOUT! 6037e437()
GKCONTENT! 01ef8e55()
GKCONTENT! 01efb4c3()

NECKO! 608283e7()
NECKO! 608505a1()
NECKO! 6082eb73()
XPCOM! 60f1116b()

I have also copied some assembly instructions, but since I don't know if these
are of any interest (w/o the source) I have put them into a seperate attachment.

bye, daniel

Oh, there's one thing I forgot: I have also reported the crash via Talkback. The
Talkback Incident ID is:

Hope that helps...

Hello, its me again. :)

I have downloaded a new Mozilla version (2001-10-16-06) and the problem
persists! Here is another call stack, this time from version Mozilla/5.0
(Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:0.9.5+) Gecko/20011016.

GKLAYOUT! 603cae00()
GKLAYOUT! 603a72c8()

GKLAYOUT! 603a5568()
GKLAYOUT! 603aa856()

GKLAYOUT! 6037e594()

NECKO! 6082839e()
NECKO! 60850511()
NECKO! 6082ead0()
XPCOM! 60f10cb3()

I have also reported another Talkback Incident w/ the ID: TB368116419E.

The assembly instructions did not change, except for the memory location
(obviously, since it is a different build ;).

Bye, daniel :)

I can't reproduce this, but there is a crash report for this stack in 
bug 101423. This (more recent) report narrows it down.
