166812 - mozilla crashes with http://www.greenwichmeantime.com

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Fred Wong]

First of all, this bug is probably related to bug# 166808. The browser crashes
when accessing http://www.greenwichmeantime.com and gives the following message:


INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Exec of "java_vm" failed: 2
<
System error?:: No such file or directory
Gdk-ERROR **: Fatal IO error 9 (Bad file descriptor) on X server :0.0.
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not read ack from browser
System error?:: Resource temporarily unavailable

Hi everyone,

I(reporter of the bug) think I have found out the culprit. There was another
copy of java plugin in the plugins directory: javaplugin_oji.so, which I suppose
created some sort of conflict with one provided by the JRE 1.4.x plugin package,
i.e. libjavaplugin_oji.so. I don't know whether it has always been there or not.
But once I removed it(javaplugin_oji.so) the browser does not crash anymore. So,
sorry for all the anxieties caused by me ;-). However, I discovered one other
thing with the same site which you might be intrested in investigating. The
clock Java Applet works for the main site but if I select a country to find out
its time, the Applet reports the following error:
"lang:ClassNotFoundException:...". Do you think that's the problem with the site
or the plugin?

Thank you very much
Fred

Really you should have left this bug closed and logged a new one on this problem.

Bug 167466 now covers this subsequent problem, resolving this one again as WFM
