263975 - firefox assertion on startup on Tru64 UNIX

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Tim Mooney]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; OSF1 alpha; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040914
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; OSF1 alpha; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040914

I built a local copy of firefox from:

ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/0.10.1/firefox-1.0PR-source.tar.bz2

I used the following .mozconfig:

ac_add_options --disable-ldap
ac_add_options --disable-mailnews
ac_add_options --enable-extensions="cookie,xml-rpc,xmlextras,p3p,pref,transformi
ix,universalchardet,typeaheadfind,webservices,inspector"
ac_add_options --enable-crypto
ac_add_options --disable-composer
ac_add_options --enable-optimize="-g3 -inline none"
ac_add_options --disable-strip
ac_add_options --disable-accessibility
ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2
ac_add_options --enable-xft
ac_add_options --enable-freetype2
ac_add_options --enable-svg
ac_add_options --with-gssapi=/local/krb5
ac_add_options --with-system-zlib
ac_add_options --with-system-jpeg
ac_add_options --with-system-png
ac_add_options --with-system-mng
mk_add_options MOZ_PHOENIX=1


And the following flags that affect autoconf:

$CC: cc
$CFLAGS: -std -O2 -g3 -portable -readonly_strings -pthread -msg_disable inlinest
oclsmod,valuepres,longlongtype,hexoctunsign  -I/local/include/X11 -I/local/inclu
de
$CPPFLAGS:  -I/local/include/X11 -I/local/include
$CXX: cxx
$CXXFLAGS: -std gnu -O2 -g3 -pthread -readonly_strings  -I/local/include/X11 -I/
local/include


I have freetype 2.1.8, glib 2.4.6, gtk+-2.4.10, pango-1.4.1, libXft-2.1.6, and
other relevant dependencies installed.

When starting the app that I get from untar'ing the results of the dist tar.gz,
I get normal "Registering..." messages, but I get several warnings and then
an ASSERTION, and firefox exits.  The complete output of startup will be
attached in just a moment.  The last few lines look like:

WARNING: Cannot create startup observer : service,@mozilla.org/typeaheadfind;1,
file nsAppStartupNotifier.cpp, line 113
++WEBSHELL == 1

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Build firefox 0.10.1 on Tru64 UNIX 5.1b with the options I did, and start it.  I
get the same sequence of messages every time.
Actual Results:  
firefox exits without ever displaying any windows.


full startup log is attached.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
