Crash Data

In Ubuntu 10.04 64bit, I upgraded from FF9 to FF10 (using https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable ).

Using Firebug 1.9.1, Firefox crashes as soon as I use Firebug's DOM tab or type a variable / function name in the Firebug console.
This did not happen with FF9.

See https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/firebug/v7WosDjvIyg for more details.

Summary: Firefox 10 crashes with Firebug 1.9.1 DOM tab (Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit) → Firefox 10 crash in js::mjit::FrameState::pushActiveFrame with Firebug 1.9.1 DOM tab (Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit)
I have the same problem. I've noticed that this also happens with the built in Web Console in FF10. not just in Firebug. Same symptom; start typing a function name or variable name (or almost anything) into the console and Firefox crashes. Also running Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit, and this did not happen in FF9 (but has been a problem in FF10 for at least the last couple months). It's also currently a problem in the FF11 beta.
Could you bisect this with nightly builds to find the day when it started?
I'm also experiencing this.  

Additional steps to reproduce: paste any text into the firebug console, wait 3 seconds.

> Could you bisect this with nightly builds to find the day when it started?

Mind explaining what this means and pointing to some instructions on how to do it?
Steps to reproduce:

0. New profile
1. Open web console (CTRL-SHIFT-K)
2. Type "print" into console

Result: Crash
I cannot reproduce this with the release version of Firefox 10.  Only with Firefox 10 through mozillateam.  This may not be a mozilla bug.
The original googlegroups thread implied this only affects 64-bit systems (people on 32-bit machines didn't encounter it).  Were you testing FF10 on a 64-bit box?  Specifically, I've consistently reproduced this on multiple Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit boxes.
Actually you're right... back on my ubuntu 64-bit box and got FF 10.0.1 direct rather than through mozillateam.... works fine now.  Could be FF10 or it could be the ubuntu packaging, but the latest release version seems to have solved it.
Hello,
I have tested it with this release: http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/10.0/linux-x86_64/en-US/ and also with the 10.0.1 one.
Works correctly with both, no crashes.
So something is going on with the mozillateam version...
Cheers,
David
Just tested 10.0, 10.0.1 and 11.0b2 from the mozilla FTP. All work fine. The bug does seem to be limited to the mozillateam release.
Additionally, running 10.0.1 from lucid-updates/main works fine too. I haven't tried the newest point release from the mozillateam repo because I won't want to jinx my now working version.

Sorry, spoke too soon. The version out of the Ubuntu repo also crashes. The versions from Mozilla's FTP are all working correctly though. Seems we need to file this bug with Ubuntu (and perhaps mozillateam).
I seem to have this problem with both mozillateam and Ubuntu versions, both 10.0.0 and 10.0.1. Running Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit.
I'm observing this problem as well, crashing either by clicking DOM tab in Firebug 1.9.1 or by typing in the web console command line. 

I reported a bug to ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/931637

Firefox 10.0.1, Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit running on Lenovo Thinkpad W510.
Also having this problem.

An answer to comment 2 is still expected from someone who can reliably hit it.

I don't think it's going to pop up here as it seems to be limited to the Ubuntu and mozillateam's repos. That said, I'll give this a spin and report back.
As I expected, no problems with any of the nightly builds for the last 2 months. Any idea where I can find old builds from the Ubuntu and Mozillateam repos? It looks like they remove the old stuff as the new rolls out, but I imagine they are cached somewhere, I just couldn't find anything. 

This has been a problem in the mozillateam repo since the 11 beta's but I don't exactly which version they started with. Also, can't speak to the 32 bit version, seems everyone having issues is having them with the 64 bit version (and on Ubuntu 10.04 specifically).
Firefox 10.0.1 hit the mozilla-team repo today. Problem still happens.
As pointed out by Bjorn Christianson in comment 14, there's a bug report on Ubuntu's Launchpad now (thanks Bjorn). We're probably more likely to get help over there since this isn't a problem with the default Mozilla build.

Yes, please, if you're having the issue, report it on Launchpad so we can get the heat up and get it fixed.

How exactly is this a duplicate?
There is a memory corruption bug affecting builds of Firefox built with gcc 4.4.3 (ie, Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10) which is responsible for these crashes with Firebug and the Web Console.
(In reply to Bjorn Christianson from comment #26)

To see the similarity, compare comment 5 to bug 694594 comment 3.  The steps to reproduce are the same.
Whatever the root cause for me the auto completion in Firebug seemed to trigger the crash. 

As a quick and nasty workaround I extracted and removed the XPI for Firebug (firebug@software.joehewitt.com.xpi) and simply cleared out the bodies for the functions createCandidates, createCompletions and popupCandidates in content/firebug/console/autoCompleter.js. 

So far this seems to prevent Firefox from crashing.

P.S. I'm running Firefox 11 on Ubuntu 10.10 (32 bit) with Firebug 1.91.
