# building with CVS version from Mar 20 1999
# with egcs 1.1.1 on a Sparc Solaris 5.6 box

I clicked on a http link to a .jar (java archive) file and got
a core dump.

(go to the page http://www.cs.umn.edu/~dejong/freebuilder/index.html
and click on the link "eventbus.jar" near the top)

Alert: Alert! did not find a converter or decoderAbort (core dumped)

Program terminated with signal 9, Killed.

A Viewer problem too?
I also get a core dump in viewer. Here is the backtrace for viewer.

Target Milestone: M4
Clearing Milestone for don to re-set.
dejong, is this still happening for you with latest build?
Assignee: don → rickg
Component: Apprunner → Parser
Re-assigned to rickg@netscape.com and changed component to Parser.

Rick, is this the parser or netlib?
Assignee: rickg → ramiro
Ramiro -- can you please see if this still crashes? On Windows things work fine.
(Maybe Syd can do the test for you.)
Target Milestone: M5
i dont get a core dump.

however, it seems that the binary file is being parsed and layed out - which can
be painfully slow on large files.

I think the problem is really a decoding problem

marking m5 - will look into it more after m4
Now when I click on the file in the viewer it will stop redrawing
and suck up all of the CPU time.

It also prints this message to the console.

DocLoaderFactory: Unable to create ContentViewer for content-type: application/z
ip
Browser Window Alert: Alert! did not find a converter or decoder
Browser Window Alert: Alert! did not find a converter or decoder


Then after about 4 minutes I printed

Goto 11

the CPU usage went back down and it refreshed. If you ask me it was
still laying out the binary file but at least it does not crash anymore.
Of course 100% CPU usage for four minutes is not a good thing.
Target Milestone: M5 → M6
it doesnt crash, but it eats up cpu as described above.

phillip, can you find some XP weenie to own this bug ?  maybe someone dealing
with mime types/converters or other stuff like that.

marking m6.
Something seems to have changed. I compiled viewer from the CVS on
Fri Apr 30. Now when I click on the .jar file the screen will fill
up with binary charcters. The really strange part is the same page
has the file in .zip format and if I click on that link a message
that reads

"DocLoaderFactory: Unable to create ContentViewer for content-type:
application/zip"

is written to the console. Why does it not try to render a .zip file
but it does try to render a .jar file? If this is a MIME type issue
(as in the .zip MIME type is known but .jar is not) then why would
an unknown MIME type be rendered instead of saving to a file or
asking the user if it should be saved or rendered?
Can i reassign this bug to law ?
Assignee: ramiro → law
reassign to law@netscape.com.

Bill, if you are the wrong victim, please reassign it to someone else.  thanks.

Resolution: --- → INVALID
The server is telling us that the file in question has content-type
"text/plain."  Thus, both viewer and apprunner both (rightfully) try to display
it as such (ugly as it is).  I think there was previously bugs in Gecko that
crashed when presented with such data but now it works as well as can be
expected in both viewer and apprunner (each looks real close to what 4.x
displays).
