Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Java-Implemented Plugins, defect)

Description

[Graham Neubig]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020607
BuildID:    0000000000

Opening certain applets that use LiveGraphics3D to generate mathematica plots in
3D causes Mozilla to exit. Note that this is not true for all applets using this
LiveGraphics3D, only a few. This happens on Redhat Linux 7.2 in at least 2
instances.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to above URL
2.Click on the button labeled "Three Dimensions"

Actual Results:  Mozilla exits without warning, closing all windows.

Expected Results:  Displayed the applet properly.

[Kai Lahmann (is there, where MNG is)]

only get an error about missing "IMPUT" or "INPUT_FILE" parameter, no crash
(2002071404, Linux, Java 1.4)

I have since upgraded to build 2002071521, the newest nightly and can confirm
that this is still a problem on my redhat 7.2 system.

Reporter can you reproduce this bug with a newer build (1.4 final)?
If not, then please close this bug as worksforme. Thanks.

This was a problem with Java3D with older versions of the JDK which causes a
problem on linux if you don't turn off shared contexts, not a problem with
Mozilla. Setting this to worksforme.
