All relevant patches described in the README are applied (latest patch
cluster as of 11/22, as well as MU6).  This happened with a binary of 0.9.5 
as well on a SunBlade 100.  I'm having to run 0.9.4 on both of these machines,
as 0.9.5 and 0.9.6 dont work on either.

Runtime bugs against contributed packages should be assigned to the package
contributor.

[hacker formerly known as [e-mail]]

According to the README, the solaris package was contributed by
[e-mail]....who happens to not have a bugzilla
acct (at least not under that address).

I just builg Mozilla 0.9.6 on Solaris 2.7 (SPARC) and it segfaults on startup
and dumps core.

The command I typed (right after building) is: dist/bin/mozilla

Here is the tail end of the output:

I ran the "./mozilla" command IN the dist/bin directory, and got these results:

I have this same problem with 0.9.7 on a Sunblade 100, at execution I get

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xff19ea7c in nsComponentManagerImpl::FreeServices () from
/usr/local/mozilla/libxpcom.so
(gdb)

I get the following from the 0.9.7 Solaris 8 build:

t@1 (l@1) terminated by signal SEGV (no mapping at the fault address)
current thread: t@1
=>[1] FreeServices__22nsComponentManagerImpl(0x0, 0xff219648, 0x1a034,
0xfebbf1a0, 0x3f8, 0x1), at 0xff19ea7c

  [3] main(0x0, 0xffbeee4c, 0xffbeee54, 0x2c2f8, 0x0, 0x0), at 0x18594


And this from 0.9.4:

t@1 (l@1) terminated by signal SEGV (no mapping at the fault address)
current thread: t@1
=>[1] Shutdown__22nsComponentManagerImpl(0x0, 0xff170a74, 0x2bcfc, 0xfebbf1a0,

  [3] main(0x0, 0xffbeee84, 0xffbeee8c, 0x2b8f0, 0x0, 0x0), at 0x17ce8


All required patches and libraries are present.
Hardware: Sun Blade 1000

[Matthias Versen [:Matti]]

CC gisburn : Can you help in this case ?

Comment 8

[Roland Mainz]

Which compiler was used to build the Zilla ? Sun Workshop, gcc2.95 or gcc 3.0x ?

Comment 9

[Matthias Versen [:Matti]]

*** Bug 125228 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 10

[Torben]

This bug is very old. Does this still aplly to the current builds?

Comment 11

[Dimitri Papadopoulos]

Mozilla hasn't been working on Solaris + Forte 6 update 2 or Sun ONE Studio 7
since Mozilla 1.0-rc2.

Granted, Sun are able to build Netscape out of it, and Mozilla is reported to
work, but it doesn't in my case. I've applied all required (and not required
patches) but I keep getting crashes at startup. Didn't have time to investigate
this yet.

Comment 12

[Torben]

Removing version from summary since this still seems to be happening.

Comment 13

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

This seems to apply to 0.9.8, can someone try to reproduce this with the latest
Solaris 8 build?
