Description of problem: Loading a website with a Java applet causes Firefox to segfault. This does not occur with the official binaries. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): firefox-0.9.3-8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Firefox from RPM instead of binary 2. Copy Java plugin to ~/.mozilla/plugins/ 3. Open Firefox and load a Java website Actual results: Firefox completely closes and leaves information on the console (if run from console - see additional info). Please note that the mplayerplug-in errors are due to the 64-bit mplayer plugin being in the same global plugin folder. Workaround: Use official binaries or 64-bit browser w/ no Java. Expected results: Firefox opens the webpage. Additional info: (firefox-bin:23451): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "bluecurve", LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/lib/firefox-0.9.3/plugins/mplayerplug-in.so [/usr/lib/firefox-0.9.3/plugins/mplayerplug-in.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory] INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Exec of "java_vm" failed: 2 < System error?:: No such file or directory INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not read ack from child process System error?:: No such file or directory
We need more details. Exactly what version of java is this? Please retest it with 64bit plugins fully removed, firefox debuginfo installed, and get a gdb backtrace. Is this an issue running the same on a pure 32bit system?
Is there a way I can install the debuginfo without downloading the source package and manually compiling it? I run into problems attempting this. I downloaded the source package, extracted it, switched to the folder, created a 32-bit environment ('linux32 su'), configured, and tried to make and ran into problems after a while: {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:167: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `push' {standard input}:177: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `push' {standard input}:183: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `pop'
Ah crap... I just remembered that our firefox debuginfo package is broken. =(
Whatever was causing the problem is fixed in the 1.0 Preview Release available in RAWHIDE.
Ok, then marking RAWHIDE.
