40830 - Browser becomes unavailable after loading page.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 37463

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Henrik Gemal]

If you go to:
http://www.travel-marked.dk/
the browser seems to become unavailable.
This only happens the first time you first the site. To reproduce, delete the 
cookie called "http://www.travel-marked.dk/"

The error I'm getting in the console:
JavaScript error:
 line 0: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component does not have requested in
terface"  code: "-2147467262" nsresult: "0x80004002 (NS_NOINTERFACE)"  location:
 "<unknown>"]

Build 20000526

ouch. this is bad, i see it also and it nearly brought down the whole OS (then 
again, this is win98 so that doesn't say much).  I also got sporadic crashes, 
I'll try to get some talkback info soon.

reassigning to networking for triage or acceptance

Attachment: testcase - WARNING: will cause browser to stop responding and may force reboot

reassigning to imagelib; out of that long page, I've narrowed down the problem 
to three IMG tags at the end that are of the form: <img 
src="../grafik/pixel.gif">.   Is there already a bug about "../" image Sources? 

nominating for nsbeta2; this is a highly visible crash/hang and brought down 
the entire OS (forcing reboot) numerous times while trying to create the 
testcase.

actually, maybe this isn't imagelib.  reassigning to general for triage, cc'ing 
pnunn and rickg

On PC/Linux, with both 5/21 and 5/26 builds, I see the "Component does not have
requested interface", too. However, there's no problem with the browser.

[Blake Ross]

removing nsbeta2 designation for now; though it's crashed on win95 for a couple 
people I've spoken, others on linux and win98 have reported no crashing 
problems.

More information to crash your browser on this site:
Be sure that you dont have a cookie on the domain:
www.travel-marked.dk

Now go to:
http://www.travel-marked.dk/
A popup window will appear and in the popup window click the "Luk vindue" button 
(It means Close Window). DONT click the [x] in the upper right corner.
After clicking the "Luk vindue" button the browser becomes unavailable!

If you click the normal [x] to close the window, everything works ok!

Reproduced on PC/Linux, build 2000053120.
Clicking on "Luk vindue" button in the popup window freezes the browser.

When I interrupted mozilla in this frozen state, I saw the same stack traces
as in bug 39558 (JavaScript closing window causes deadlock), which is a dup of
bug 37463 (JavaScript setting location causes deadlock) per comments of the
owner of bug 37463. Marking duplicate of the latter.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 37463 ***
