Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 397309

(Camino Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[jonathan chetwynd]

Attachment: h&v-test

open file, application appears to crash.

this is a simple file that minefield opens instantly

Comment 1

[tor]

Works for me on linux and os-x.

Comment 2

[jonathan chetwynd]

strangely wfm too,

cannot say what might have been the problem.

tried at least 3 times.

will reopen if I can get a handle

Comment 3

[jonathan chetwynd]

handle found ~:"

please save attachment locally.

then open...

my apologies if this is a dupe 

Comment 4

[tor]

Still doesn't crash with a local version on linux and OS-X.

Comment 5

[philippe (part-time)]

Loading over http, the testcase loads perfectly fine in Camino (20070911 trunk build).

Loading locally (File > Open) hangs the same Camino build, requiring a force quit. Works fine in Minefield builds.
10.4.10 ppc.

Comment 6

[jonathan chetwynd]

#3 agreed hang, is there a special keyword for hang? if not >> crash.

Comment 7

[Samuel Sidler (old account; do not CC)]

Yes. "hang" is the special keyword we use for a hang.

Comment 8

[jonathan chetwynd]

Attachment: simple rect

Comment 9

[jonathan chetwynd]

I tried a variety of simple and complex svg files.
all caused camino to hang.

Comment 10

[jonathan chetwynd]

'spect there's no crash log, but is there a way I can extract any more info?

Comment 11

[Samuel Sidler (old account; do not CC)]

A sample would help. See here for instructions:

Regressed between:
2007090400 (2.0a1pre) OK
2007090502 (2.0a1pre) Fails

http://www.peepo.co.uk/temp/CaminoSample.txt
this is a temp location.

seems a pity the file is bigger than the attachments can cope with:
440kb more than 300kb

can't fathom this as file looks small, but does take a while to load.

Comment 14

[Robert Longson [:longsonr]]

Does this only apply to SVG files? i.e. Do other locally saved files (html, images, plain text) work.

Comment 15

[jonathan chetwynd]

gifs html and txt files open ok

Comment 16

[tor]

Works fine with an OS-X seamonkey build from a cvs pull of 9/12 morning, but hangs Camino trunk nightly of 9/12.  Maybe something wrong with Camino trying to find an external helper for svg content instead of handling it internally?

Comment 17

[Stuart Morgan]

If so, perhaps it's related to not shipping a mimeTypes.rdf yet? We're still trying to recover from the content handling changes.

Comment 18

[jonathan chetwynd]

minefield nightlies open multiple windows whilst trying to open local svg file.

propose to widen scope.

No, file a bug on Minefield.  One issue per bug report.

seems a mighty strange coincidence...

Comment 21

[Doug Turner (:dougt)]

wfm 1.6a1pre 2007091901

I was able to repeatedly load the rect.svg from the local file system without any problem.

Comment 22

[jonathan chetwynd]

#21 1.6?? 3....

wfm

Comment 23

[philippe (part-time)]

Why is this marked fixed ?
This bug only affects trunk builds (Camino 2.0a1 pre).

1.6a1pre is a *Branch* build, based on Gecko 1.8.1, and is not affected by this bug.

Comment 24

[jonathan chetwynd]

it's a little beyond my understanding how this bugs got resolved without any code changes. I checked this in the latest trunk nightlies wfm.

for a few days this has been broken in the trunk nightlies.
how is this not a code change?

Comment 25

[jonathan chetwynd]

as per bug 396365 reopening as latest nightlies are broken on os x

this is pretty tiresome guys, stalls SVG bug reporting and test case production

> this is pretty tiresome guys

As is dealing with people who have been using bugzilla long enough to have no excuse for not knowing bugzilla ettiquette, but still refuse to follow it. Trunk is not guaranteed never to have regressions, so if you want to test it you need to accept that, and tone down your attitude in bug reports. You have been warned about this elsewhere.

Besides which, I'm not clear on how it's our fault that we haven't been working on a bug that you yourself closed. When a bug has been closed by the reporter as working, we don't work on fixing it.

Comment 27

[Stuart Morgan]

This is just another instance of the same missing nsHandlerService fallout.

Comment 28

#26

Stuart, I wouldn't have closed the bug, except it wfm one night then it doesn't the next....
frankly I stopped working on mozilla bugs a couple of weeks ago..

Comment 29

[jonathan chetwynd]

Chris,

this being the camino bug AND as it's no longer hanging, it's currently closed
Bug 396365 isn't the same bug, evidently....

cheers

Of course it's not; not only did this bug and bug 396365 have different products, symptoms, and regression ranges (in fact, they shared nothing except having something to do with SVG files), this bug was conclusively proven in testing to be a duplicate of bug 397309 (a definitively Camino-only bug), which is why it was marked as such.
