492733 - Java Plugin couldn't find JVM and quit browser

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Gilles Durys]

Opensuse 10.3
Java 1.6.0_13-b03
Firefox trunk 20090513

Any page with an applet crashes Firefox.
I have the following message on my terminal:

INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not get the JVM manager
System error?:: Resource temporarily unavailable

Firefox 3.0.10 has no problem with the same version of java.

Dupe of bug 492492?

Comment 2

[Gilles Durys]

It doesn't look so.
And Firefox 3.5b4 does not crash.

Are you using a Mozilla official build or a Linux distro? If you use an official build, please give a sacktrace and steps to reproduce.

Comment 4

[Gilles Durys]

I'm using builds from ftp.mozilla.org

I've traced back the problem to sometime between april 9 and 10.
This build works OK: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/2009/04/2009-04-09-03-mozilla-central/firefox-3.6a1pre.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2

This build and the next ones do not: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/2009/04/2009-04-10-03-mozilla-central/firefox-3.6a1pre.en-US.linux-i686.tar.bz2

I tested it in a new profile by trying to load http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/2D/samples/java2demo/Java2Demo.html

The crash reporter doesn't show up.
I'm building a debug build for getting a stacktrace.

Attachment: Log output

Here's the output from start to crash.

When trying to get a stacktrace, gdb tells me "No stack"

Comment 8

[timeless]

tyler, for reference, the specific error listed in comment 0 means that java threw a hissy fit and KILLED the browser (exit()). There isn't a stack trace.

Reporter: sorry, java got upset and when it gets upset, it will quit the browser. Please complain to your java vendor. There's a newer version of java available and you probably need to use it.

I will.
But currently, this version is the latest available from Sun.

You're using Java 6 update 13? Then, yes, that is the highest version available right now. Have you talked to Java yet? Please give them this bug report link.

A quick update:
with Minefield build 20090618, I don't get anymore crash just blank applets (using either Java 6 update 13 or 14).

Comment 13

[Robert Kaiser]

OJI has been discontinued and Java now runs out-of-process, so this stuff has probably changed a lot. This bug has no info about current software versions, please file a new bug for new issues or reopen this one with current info, including a crash signature if it still happens and move it to a component outside of graveyard.

Also, WFM as per comment #12.
