Do you still crash if you disable Java (under Preferences -> Advanced)?

Disabling Java (Preferences -> Advanced) makes the problem go away.

what version of java do you have installed?
do you crash on all java applets or just this one?
do you have the java plugin properly installed (symlinked, not copied)?

>what version of java do you have installed?

From about:plugins:
Java(TM) Plug-in 1.4.2_03-b02

>do you crash on all java applets or just this one?

Hmmm... I just tried another one and crashed. So I guess, all Java apps.

>do you have the java plugin properly installed (symlinked, not copied)?

I did a plain vanilla install of Mozilla 1.7.2 on SuSE Linux 9.1. The contents
of the plugin directory are:

$  ls -l /usr/local/mozilla/plugins/
total 2222
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root     856 Aug  5 23:31 flashplayer.xpt
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 1617848 Aug  5 23:31 libflashplayer.so
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root  281904 Aug  5 23:31 libjavaplugin_oji.so
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root   32314 Aug  5 23:31 libnptcl3.0.so
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root   20864 Aug  3 13:05 libnullplugin.so
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root   31572 Aug  5 23:31 mozplugger.so
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  129611 Aug  5 23:31 nppdf.so
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    4139 Aug  5 23:31 raclass.zip
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root  138640 Aug  5 23:31 rpnp.so

so the Java plugin is a copy, not a symlink. I don't believe I changed anything
in this directory since installation, so this is how it got installed via the
Mozilla installer.

the Mozilla installer didn't put those plugins there (except libnullplugin.so).
 the JRE plugin has to be symlinked to work:
http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux.html#Java

resolving INVALID -- this is not a Mozilla bug

But Mozilla crashed. Even when an app is misconfigured it should exit
gracefully, not crash.  Doesn't that make it a Mozilla bug?

Andrew Schultz

plugins act as libraries to Mozilla.  they are effectively part of Mozilla and
Sun's plugin doesn't crash, it actually calls exit(), so there's really nothing
Mozilla can do.  there are bugs to safe-guard against such things, but you'd be
better off complaining to Sun.
