693363 - Crash in mozilla::plugins::PluginModuleChild::Init @ pr_FindSymbolInLib

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 700583

(Core Graveyard :: Plug-ins, defect)

Description

[Rob]

When I run Nightly (and the other versions) I get spurious Reports that appear in about:crashes, MOST of them are not accessible, of the few I can access this is one:

Firefox 7.0.1 Crash Report [@ pr_FindSymbolInLib ]
bp-fedb7020-e2cf-42c4-ac9f-76b162111010
bp-5f4d4759-d77d-4eef-a26a-950e12111010
bp-0350202f-7b25-438f-a20b-4c04d2111010

Even though I run Nightly and Aurora the "Title" is as shown "Firefox 7.0.1 ...", also there is NO "Crash Reporter" popping up; they accumulate in "about:crashes" and the three above are one of the very FEW that are accessible.


Here is my most recent "about:crashes" Entries:

Only the three listed previously are accessible the rest shown are inaccessible.
The piling up of inaccessible Reports was reported in Bug 692685.



THIS Report is ONLY about "pr_FindSymbolInLib" in bp-fedb7020-e2cf-42c4-ac9f-76b162111010, bp-5f4d4759-d77d-4eef-a26a-950e12111010 and bp-0350202f-7b25-438f-a20b-4c04d2111010 (I may have more bp-'s).

I have a crash a few minutes ago and about:crashes reports this:

Out of all those Reports bp-b6d563f3-36f0-47a9-9267-124cf2111023 is the only one that is accessible and it has no Signature.

Is a failure of "pr_FindSymbolInLib" in addition to another crash producing Reports that have no Signature.

Related crash also occurs on Fennec in Nightly (10.0)

Going to log this separately from mobile crash.  crash stacks doesn't look quite the same when I looked at it more carefully.

Rob, Marcia : I think this is related to bug 692149?

Bug 692149 Comment 8 explains the (re)purpose of 692149.


Comment 0 explains _this_ Bug ('THIS Report is ONLY about "pr_FindSymbolInLib" in ...'); so not related.

Trying to report _this_ Bug was hampered by Bug 692685 and Bug 692149 (as they do to all Bug reporting, until you remove the Plugin manually; while we await a fix for 692149).

Does this still happen in 16 beta 1 (to be released today)? We fixed bug 700583 there, which has the same crash signature, so could be connected.

I usually run Nightly (now at 18.0a1) so I imagine your question regarding 16 beta 1 applying to Aurora.

I have not seen _this_ Bug (or MOST others) occur in months. I can not imagine we have fixed everything but that is the impression I get when I use Firefox. o.O

Comment 8

[Scoobidiver (away)]

It's a low volume crash. There are only 15 crashes in Firefox 15.0 over the last week.

Comment 9

[Robert Kaiser]

Rob, when I say beta I mean beta, not Aurora. ;-)
That said, it's fixed in both Aurora and Nightly as well.

Scoobidiver, we didn't fix this in 15, only in 16 and up. Though, actually, as we pushed it for 15.0.1 mobile, it might be fixed in 15.0.1 desktop as well.

Given comment #7, I'll just mark it as a dupe of 700583 and consider it fixed unless we see it again in 16 or higher.

I know, but considering the low volume in 15.0, it's less likely it happens in 16.0 Beta whatever the status of bug 700583.
Closing as a dupe of bug 700583 or as workforme works for me.

OK with me. I will make a comment there.
