116067 - Browser crashes upon startup

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: RDF, defect)

Description

[duraid]

The browser normally crashes upon startup (after mozilla logo displayed, but
before first 'main' window is opened). Sometimes (1 in 5 or so) it'll work, for
no apparent reason.

see e.g. talkback incidents TB541440M, TB541452Z, TB612015Y, TB613156Z,
TB613167W, TB664901W, TB664935M, TB685369G, TB685487G, TB685542K

Oops. Forgot to mention that once or twice there was what appeared to be an
MSVCRT 'stock error' (that looks like the 'assert' dialog) - complaining about a
pure virtual function call. Hmmm.

stephend, could you get a stack from those talkbacks?

Reporter, how did you install Mozilla?  Did you use the installer?  Or a zip 
file?

Boris,

Always used the installer. I didn't bother uninstalling previous builds before
installing later ones - until this problem showed up. This didn't seem to make a
difference, though.

Over to RDF

Comment 7

[Chase Tingley]

Bizarre.

I notice that the stack is from build 2001121409 -- is this crash still in the
latest nightlies?
