170483 - Crashes when navigating to an SSL site

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 175189

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[kb3cbc]

The web page does not display in Mozilla for this URL, rather, it crashes.
Problem seems to exist only on the mac OS X version.  I am running Mac OS 10.2.

Problem does not occur when using the Windows version of Mozilla.
Problem does not occur when using Internet Explorer 5.2 for Mac OS X.

Let me know if you need the Console crash log as I cannot post it here, it is
too large.

yes, please post 1 stack trace from console.

and post it as an attachment if possible. :)

Comment 3

[Olivier Cahagne]

oh you're running MacOSX 10.2 then it must be bug 154699.
Upgrade to 1.2a or nightly build to get this one fixed.

Comment 4

[Frank Wein [:mcsmurf]]

Where's a java-applet on this page?

Comment 5

[Matthias Versen [:Matti]]

Reporter: 
Apple broke Java with 10.2 for mozilla.
Please use a nightly build (with a fix for this)

[e-mail], when I access that URL using FizzillaCFM/2002091014 on 10.1.5,
I'm forwarded to [https://secure.strayer.edu/cgi-bin/rgw/strayerlive]. Can you
reproduce the crash if you directly access that URL instead of the one you
originally provided?

I will try a nightly build tomorrow evening, Sept. 25th.

To answer Greg Kolanek's question, I receive the same exact error and crash if I
use [https://secure.strayer.edu/cgi-bin/rgw/strayerlive].  Without the brackets,
of course.

I do not know where the Java Applet is located, I don't maintain the Strayer web
site.  I will obtain the applet if possible and post as an attachment.

Yeah, that does look like a Java crash, and is probably rightly resolved dup. Do
test the nightly anyway, [e-mail].

Attachment: Crash Log for 09-24 nightly build

Mozilla also crashes using the lastest nightly build.

Comment 11

[kb3cbc]

I tested the nightly build as of yesterday, 09-24, and I still have the same
problem.

I verified today that the problem does not occur on the Mac OS 9 nor Windows
builds of Mozilla.

Reopening per comment 10.

Comment 13

[Greg K.]

Whoops, looks like we need to use your original URL to get the proper access.

New Attachments and Explanations:
"STRAYERLIVE HTML" - target HTML that causes the crash, reachable at the above URL.

"WWDRIVERS%2CCACHED_BASE_WWSCRIPTS.JS" - referenced by target HTML.  Contains
the rather lengthy "CallHandler" javascript function.  "CallHandler" accepts
three parameters: "event", "obj", and "name".  He mainly deals with
document.layers and windowTarget values.  This javascript also contains the
function "targetAWindow" which does exactly what it says.    Contains
"GetControlValues" function that accepts two parameters: "hTargetedWindow" and
"minimal_list".  Not sure what "GetControlValues" does, exactly.  A side note,
the script writer uses variations on Hungarian notation.  No set style.

"WWDRIVERS%2CCALL_HANDLER.JS" - referenced by target HTML.  This javascript
apparently posts the login information to the server.  Also prevents the target
HTML from displaying correctly unless present in the correct frame?

"WWDRIVERS%2CCHKSUBMIT.JS" - referenced by target HTML.  Contains one function,
ChkSubmits.  Accepts one parameter, "hForm".  Apparently strips forward slashes
from the server post?

"WWDRIVERS%2CDISPSTATUS.JS" - refrenced by target HTML.  Sets, checks, resets a
5000 second? counter.  Perhaps a timeout counter.

"WWDRIVERS%2CGETCONTROLVALUES.JS" - referenced by target HTML.  I'm not sure
what this guy does.

"OSSDRIVERS%2CfmOSSLOGIN.JS" - referenced by target HTML.  Apparently an error
handler that checks for null value fields, and if detected, displays a
javascript popup error message.
