251776 - Crash on form submission in pop-up search dialog in iPlanet Messaging Server

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Chris Kampmeier]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040628 Firefox/0.9.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040628 Firefox/0.9.1

When logged into an iPlanet Messaging Server web-based email client, clicking
submit in the pop-up search window crashes Firefox reproducably. This seems to
be a OS X-only problem, I've never experienced it on Windows.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in to iPlanet (http://email.usc.edu/)
2. Click Search
3. Enter a query
4. Click Search form button
Actual Results:  
Firefox crashes, closing all windows. Talkback works as expected.

Expected Results:  
Form should have submitted and results appear in same popup window.

Talkback crash ID = 345340

I realize that you can't login to email.usc.edu. Perhaps a developer with access
to an iPlanet server can corroborate?

Attachment: When pressing enter after having typed in some umlauts in search (in iPlanet), Firefox crashes. Reprod every time.

[Jamie Diamond]

Could either Chris or Marcus please re-test this on a more recent build, preferably a nightlly build from 
the dev section of mozilla.org? Thanks.

Looks like this is in Windows too.

Comment 3

[Chris Kampmeier]

Retested on Firefox 1.0.5 for Mac. I can't reproduce the bug(s) -- either mine
(enter any search query) or Marcus's (search query with umlauts). Will test on
Windows and report back.

Comment 4

[Chris Kampmeier]

OK, I am also unable to reproduce on Windows. This seems to be fixed on my end,
but Marcus should test too before closing -- we may be using different versions
of iPlanet. I have no idea how to figure out what version I'm using
(email.usc.edu) in this case.

Attachment: [Sorry, this belongs with a bug about bookmarks] MacOsX CrashReporter traceback

Stack trace after crash of Mozilla 1.0.7 on MacOsX 10.4.2 (Tiger).
Starting after Tiger upgrade, crashed every time I searched
bookmarks sidebar (or "manage bookmarks windows).
The process keeps running after Crash Reporter reports a crash,
using all available CPU time until killed.
FIX: exported all bookmarks, deleted all and
re-imported.

The crash report in comment 5 is doing something completely different than the steps in comment 0. Per comment 4, resolving as WORKSFORME. If you still see this, please reopen this bug and attach a crashlog to it.
