11221 - Crash when using "mail.default_fcc_uri" in my prefs50.js

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect, P3)

Description

[fenella]

Linux (1999-08-03-08 m9)
I use
POP:
user_pref("mail.default_fcc_uri", "mailbox://qatest38@nsmail-5/Sent"); in my
1pop, 1news server prefs50.js file and perform the following steps, it
consistently crashed with a segmentation fault error but no core file.
Steps:
1. Open Messenger from Task
2. Click on the POP server, select Inbox
3. Click on the scroll bar in the thread pane
4. Back to the folder pane, click on the Sent folder
5. Click on the scroll bar, this would crash apprunner, if not, try to repeat
item 3 and item 5 alternatively.

I have not tried win_nt yet.

Ok.  I got imap to crash as well. When segmentation occurs, there is no core
file.  When I re-launch apprunner, sometimes I see this error message in the
prompt shell:
nsComponentManager: Load(/home/gor/seamonkey/package/components/libraptorhtml.so
) FAILED with error:
 /home/gor/seamonkey/package/components/libraptorhtml.so: undefined symbol: Pain
t__10HRuleFrameR14ns
IPresContextR19nsIRenderingContextRC6nsRect17nsFramePaintLayer

Sometimes I get error message like this:

ComponentManager: Load(/home/gor/seamonkey/package/components/libraptorhtml.so)
FAILED with error: /home/gor/seamonkey/package/components/libraptorhtml.so:
undefined symbol: GetCursor__7nsFrameR14nsIPresContextR7nsPointRi
**************************************************

When this happened, I could not re-launch apprunner, I had to kill the process
and re-install seamonkey.

If this error should go to different bug, please let me know.

Rich, is this code you worked on?

I'm really not sure what the pref has to do with this bug. This pref controls
copy operations after sends, but this seems like an instability bug.

the "undefined symbol" problem is bug 8849.

I still need to investigate the crash.

marking m10.

Win_nt 4.0 (1999-08-10-09 m9)
I tried it on today's build, it does not crash using the same scenario.
Linux (1999-08-10-08 M9)
The crash does not occur any more on RedHat 6.0 on today's build
Mac (1999-08-10-09 M9)
I am going to close this bug.  Will re-open if it happens again.
No crash either.  I am going to

There is no more crash on 8/11 build on Linux either (1999-08-11-09 M9).
Mark this fixed.

another datapoint:  on linux, "mail.default_fcc_uri" set to my pop Sent folder,
works.
