Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Nick]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE i386; Nav)
BuildID:    20010802

Mozilla 0.9.3 will not load after first usage, when using www.google.com as home
page (I think that's the issue, anyhow)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.download FreeBSD binary package
2.Unpack using 'tar -zxvf <build>.tgz'
3.Move unpacked directory to /usr
4.Run mozilla 0.9.3 for the first time
5.set basic options in the edit->preferences menu
5a.set home page to www.google.com, and memory cache to 5MB.
6.browse the web for a few pages.
7.Create shortcut to Mozilla in KDE2
7a.Created shortcut directly to /usr/mozilla/mozilla (not the run-mozilla.sh
script like a smart person.:)
8.Tried to open short cut, saw task appear in taskbar, page appeared briefly,
then disappeared.
9.Ran run-mozilla.sh script in terminal, saw segfault and core dump.

Actual Results:  amitchell# ./run-mozilla.sh
MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=.
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:./plugins:/usr/local/lib
     LIBRARY_PATH=.:./components
       SHLIB_PATH=.
          LIBPATH=.
       ADDON_PATH=.
      MOZ_PROGRAM=./mozilla-bin
      MOZ_TOOLKIT=
        moz_debug=0
     moz_debugger=
Segmentation fault - core dumped

Expected Results:  Actually opened and displayed start page.

This machine is running FreeBSD-4.2-RELEASE with KDE2, and XFree86 4.0.3.  It's
an AMD Duron 900, with 256Mhz of PC100 Ram.  AFAIK, everything is configured for
X and KDE correctly, Netscape 4.78 port builds and runs fine.  (haven't tried
NS6.1 yet)

For step #4, what user did you run as?  (see some of the more recent comments on
Bug 42184)

Reporter, can you try a newer build, either 0.9.4 available here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/releases/mozilla0.9.4/FreeBSD/mozilla-0.9.4,1.tgz
or, even better, a Linux (with emulation) nightly build:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/latest/mozilla-i686-pc-linux-gnu-sea.tar.gz
