Here are some previous comments from bug 88870:

------- Additional Comment #119 From Steve Dagley 2002-05-31 19:00 -------
The plugin is 1.0.  The Yahoo chat pages work for most (as well as for internal
testing).  Try bugging the folks at Yahoo.


------- Additional Comment #120 From [e-mail] 2002-05-31 19:36 -------
Steve, I've tried to find a place to contact a real person at Yahoo but it seems
impossible.  But perhaps coming from someone at Netscape maybe they'll listen.


------- Additional Comment #125 From [e-mail] 2002-06-02 05:04 ------- 
Not only http://chat.yahoo.com/ but http://www.instantchess.com/ as well won't
work.  What happens in both instances with the latest release candidate 1.00rc3
of Mozilla for Mac OS X along with the MRJ Carbon plugin is that it gets stuck
trying to load the applet, leaving me with a spinning beachball.  It is possible
to force quit the browser, but that should not have to be done.  If a browser
finds an error in code, it should generate an error report.


------- Additional Comment #126 From Steve Dagley 2002-06-03 08:59 -------
Keep in mind the browser simply uses the plugin to pass any Java applet to the
JVM built into Mac OS X.  No error checking of the code is possible.  When you
encounter the technicolor beachball of death with an applet use the Sampler app
to grab a log of what is happening in the Mozilla process (a 5 second sample
should be plenty).  Please log a seperate bug and attach the Sampler output if
you do that

------- Additional Comment #139 From [e-mail] 2002-06-25 09:30 -------
Please do not let this bug be closed until either Yahoo fixes their chat client 
to work with the release version of Mozilla for Mac OS X, or the Java plugin is 
able to understand Yahoo's chat in the release version of Mozilla for Mac OS 
X.  And while some pre 1.0 builds of Mozilla and Mac OS X appeared to have 
fixed the problem, the release builds of Mozilla for Mac OS X and the plugin 
have the issue reocurring.  Thank you.

OJI for easier tracking, may be a potential due of bug 148829, but doesn't block
it... clearing.

Confirmed using FizzillaCFM/2002062203. Browser hangs hard, has to be force-quit.

Just an FYI, this hangs on Windows branch build 2002062608 (JRE 1.4.1_01) but
works fine on Linux 2002062606 (JRE 1.3.1_02)

Comment 8

[Patty Mac]

1) I'm currently just confirming with linux redhat 7.3 (branch build: 
2002-06-26-06-1.0.0), it also hangs as well.
2) Change from platform MAC OS X to all platforms since it hangs on windows 2k,
linux redhat 7.3, Mac os 10.1.5, and Mac os 9.2.2

Comment 9

[Patty Mac]

1)add keyword: nsbeta1
2) I'm also ccing joe chou as well since it also hangs on windows 2k and linux 
redhat 7.3

[Patty Mac]

Hmm....It's strange, it seems the yahoo chat applets load fine on today's 
netscape branch build (2002-06-27-08-1.0.0) with the following OS 
except mac os 9:

Windows 2k, jre 1.4.0_01 (netscape branch build: 2002-06-27-08-1.0.0)
Linux redhat 7.3, jre 1.3.1_01 (netscape branch build: 2002-06-27-06-1.0.0)
Mac OS 10.1.5, mrj v1.0 (netscape branch build: 2002-06-27-05-1.0.0)
Mac os 9.2.2 (netscape branch build: 2002-06-27-05-1.0.0)--An error occurs, but 
not hang. Will attach the errors.

Can anyone try to reproduce this problem on linux, windows and Mac OS X please?

It seems there's problem with the attachment on comment #13. Here is the errors
occur on os 9.2.2 in java console window:

An exception occurred:

Attachment: Crash from 2002-06-27

Patty,

OS X 10.1.5
Mozilla build 2002062712
OJI Plugin 1.0

Fresh of the disk image mozilla crashed while loading the yahoo chat client (in
a tab), second time it hanged (own window).

Comment 16

[Patty Mac]

Risky,I tried on yesterday's netscape branch build (2002-06-26-05-1.0.0)
on os X and os 9, it hung but not crashed. 
Please see this bug: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154507
But using today's branch build (2002-06-27-05-1.0.0 on os 10.1.5, it loads fine, 
and I am able to chat though.

1. Go to http://chat.yahoo.com
2. Type in your yahoo ID and password.
3. Enter Chat rooms
4. The applets load.
5. You can type something and chat with your friend.

Comment 17

[riscky]

Patty,

My comment was in response to your comment 10 using today’s trunk builds...
2002-06-27-12 1.1a (as I don't have access to the Netscape builds you do) I was
merely trying to see if I could reproduce the your success with the latest
Mozilla trunk.

If I follow, the steps in comment 16 Mozilla hangs between steps 3 and 4.

Comment 18

[riscky]

Ummm if I am not mistaken this is a dup of bug 143584 correct?

Comment 19

[Brian Nesse (gone)]

The stack labeled "Crash from2002-06-27" is a completely different bug. One I've
also seen recently while testing. If you look closely at it, you'll note that
Java doesn't even show up in the stack crawl. This is, I believe, a DOM Event
regression where Mozilla is for some reason trying to pop up a tool tip for the
java applet.

Comment 20

[Brian Nesse (gone)]

On Mac OS X using a recent branch build this WFM. On the trunk I see the same
crash that Riscky posted. This is either DOM (where it starts) or JavaScript
(where it dies)... unfortunately there have been landings for both recently.
cc'ing brendan, but assigning to DOM for further triage.

Comment 21

[Patty Mac]

Riscky, yes, this is a dup of bug 143584.

Comment 22

[Brian Nesse (gone)]

This bug has morphed into a dupe, which may be inappropriate. The 6/27 crash log
is bug 115917. Previous hang logs point to potentially different areas. 

Back to OJI, with the crasher as a blocker.

Comment 23

[Joe Chou]

Re-assign to Margaret.

Comment 24

[Joe Chou]

Another Yahoo chat room java bug. Re-assign to Java plugin group.

Comment 25

[James.Melvin]

Hi Joe,

This bug is on the Mac platform which Sun does not supply a plugin for.
Can you assign this to someone at Apple, or perhaps Patrick (for MRJ)?

Comment 26

[Brian Nesse (gone)]

According to comments 7-9 this is not a mac only bug.

Comment 27

Comment 28

[Bill McGonigle (not currently reading bugmail; please contact directly)]

This now WFM, Mozilla 2003040708, Mac OS X 10.2.5, Java 1.4.1.
