141164 - bad Java install causes crash

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Erik Neuenschwander]

1.0 branch build 2002-04-27-05

Okay, this crash is the result of user error, but I'm still a fan of user error
not being able to crash the browser.  I don't know the plugin arch, but I'm sure
from the crashlog someone can tell me if this is a Mozilla bug.

1) download the MRJ plugin from versiontracker (or wherever)
2) copy _just_ MRJPluginCarbon to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins; not the folder
MRJPluginCarbon-1.0fc1, and no aliases.  Yeah, I know now this wasn't what I was
supposed to do
3) go visit a page with java.  I used http://games.yahoo.com/games/collapse.html

Mozilla will crash.  I'll attach a crashlog.

Possibly a dupe of, or at least similar to, bug 131442 - although that has a 
WFM against RC1.

wfm without crashing at all. Mac OS 10.1.4, MRJ: v1.0fc1 (branch build:
2002-04-29-05-1.0.0)
Below here is the java console.log:

additional crashlog for 2002-04-30-05.
I'll try to catch a glimpse of the Java console later.

Mac issue. Re-assign to Patrick.

Confirming --> bnesse.

Yes, it would be NICE if this were fixed. It would be even nicer to reduce the
number of files. For example, we could easily move the contents of
MRJPlugin.properties to a 'prop' resource within the plugin library itself.
However, MRJPlugin.jar and MRJPlugin.policy have to be kept as separate files.

[Brian Nesse (gone)]

As the MRJ plugin is packaged as a bundle in it's final form it is not possible
to  produce this problem anymore. Invalidating.
