33947 - [CRASH] Mozilla crashes on starting a download.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 46266

(Core :: JavaScript Engine, defect, P3)

Description

[Jason Eager]

This is from my build from the CVS last night,
I went to download the new opera tech-preview, and
the download progress window appeared, I downloaded
1 KB of 2173 or whatever, and then the whole browser
crashed.

It did the same thing to me when I tried to download a
nightly build.

I see two different traces when following these directions (for opera),
depenging in some way on the path I pick to save it into. I can't figure out the
pattern though - it seems to crash on memory allocation both times, but export
MALLOC_CHECK_=2 didn't pick up anything...

sorry roger!

I've noticed that when I try to save a file to a directory that I cannot write
into, Mozilla complains about an unknown error.   One of two things happen: if
I've successfully saved somewhere else (that is, by specifying a different path,
which I can write into) before, another complaint about an unknown error is
presented and the download aborts.  If I have *not* saved somewhere before, the
entire browser dies, with the text "Error closing dialog" followed by
'./run-mozilla.sh: line 29: 10665 Segmentation fault   $prog ${1+"@"}'
This is with M15/Linux, with full-circle.

Not sure if this is the same but I crash when I go to http://

shareware.netscape.com/computing/shareware/download.tmpl?p=PC&category_id=78&

subcategory_id=94&id=33943 and click the download link.  I never see the dialog 

box, moz crashes on click.  This is with the commercial build, 2000071910.  I 

have a few talkbacks sent, but i don't remember how to get their numbers.  This 

is on 98.
