191908 - browser crashes with any sort of navigation within seconds of load

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[reelbigjosh]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux; i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021003

Mozilla appears to load fine (homepage set to Google) but when I enter text in 
the address bar, the browser crashes immediately (usually before I finish 
typing "www").  Attempted to workaround by entering text into Google's search 
engine, and but then again as soon as I hit enter, down goes Mozilla.  Same 
with bookmarks.  I do not have this problem as root, and deleting history.dat 
and localstore.rdf did not help.  No error messages, the browser simply 
dissappears.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load Mozilla
2. Try to navigate (by address bar, search engine, or bookmarks)

Actual Results:  
CRASH

Expected Results:  
NO CRASH

Running GNOME under Redhat 8.0 build 2.4.18-24.8.0

An October build is too old to report bugs on unless you can reproduce them with
a newer build (a *lot* of crasher bugs will have been fixed since then).If you
want someone to help fix the problem (which seems to be permissions related) you
could ask over at http://www.mozillazine.org/forums

Ack. You might not *actually* be using the October build of course if that
crashes all the time. So it would be helpful to know which build you are using
(if it's not the one you reported the bug with).Sorry for the spam.

installing 1.0.2 solves it, sorry
