I get this every time I try to run mochitest on Mac OS X 10.6.2. mozilla-central debug build.

It seems to me that in nsExternalHelperAppService::GetTypeFromExtension we should get info about the extension from one of nsIHandlerService->GetTypeFromExtension, nsIMIMEInfo->GetMIMEInfoFromOS or GetTypeFromExtras. This all seems to fail and we get to nsIPluginHost->IsPluginEnabledForExtension that leads to recursion.

No idea of cause, non of files involved was modified recently. This used to work few days ago, I had some OS X update and updated the repo.

I cannot reproduce from a certain moment. I am not sure what was the cause, but I didn't think it was a bad build. I tried to delete the obj dir and rebuild completely and I still was crashing.

We should check this really might happen and ensure it won't happen again. It could be an unexpected start-up crash and as it is a stack overflow crash, we won't have a consistent crash report about this and would be hard to identify.

Sounds like a regression from bug 508421.

We should really stop the eager type-getting for file://

yes, it is a measurable perf hit on mobile due to refering to rdf service(bug 474043) for some filetypes which causes us to cross xpconnect boundary multiple times. 

It seemed like it would b difficult to untangle the logic to make the this lazy.

Looks like I was a bit optimistic on equivalency of file channels and pr io :(. I'll post a patch unless someone beats me to it.

err, it's too early in the morning. I changed it to a channel so it can be loaded from a jar, so only real fix is to fix content-type detection :(
OK, I just took a look at doing that.  I can certainly make the file channel compute things lazily, but then nsBaseChannel will just run the unknown type sniffer on the channel+data, which has the same effect as far as I can tell.  See nsBaseChannel::OnStartRequest.

There's an obvious workaround, of course: SetContentType on the file channel before opening it, for cases when you either know what type you want or don't care about the type.
Please ignore comment 1. This is happening on a debug build (NOT on an optimized).

This is the correct mozconfig:

Any news on this? I actually cannot develop on mac with mozilla-central.

To note, the patch fixes the crash, thanks Boris.
The crash is just fixed because the call into the type-detector happens async...  I suppose that's good enough as crash-fixing goes, but it really would be nice to just set a hint type in the caller here.
A real fix would be nice.  Blocking final 1.9.3+.

Latest mozilla-central debug build on OS X doesn't suffer from this bug.

This may be fixed or OS settings has changed.

An important note: I never got this with an optimized build, only with a debug. I don't think this should block, renominating.

This issue seems like an old outdated one that stopped happening 11 years ago with the OS update.
Honza, have you seen this issue still occurring with the latest Mac versions and our latest Debug builds?
