Created attachment 316395 [details] bugreport Description of problem: When the crash occurred,I was writing a email , and I typed some words,and insert a smiley face into the canvas,and type the space key but no use, and then there was a bug report dialog popped up ,asking me to save the bug ,I did so ,with the Thunderbird closed following. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Thunderbird-2.0.0.16-1.fc9.i386 How reproducible: seems always Steps to Reproduce: 1.login the thunderbird via typing thunderbird or clicking the icon in Applications Menu. 2.Click the Write button in the thunderbird menu bar to create a new email as usual,typing the target,the subject,and then the body text.Mentioned,when type the body text, do not type a space when you want to insert a smiley face there. For example: in the body text, we write: Hello world:-) The :-) can be regarded as a smiley face 3.then click the space key after the smiley face continually.Wait a moment , a bug report dialog may pop up. If we type the letter after the smiley face without a space , the email could be created normally. Actual results: the thunderbird can not be used at this time Expected results: space could be inputted and we can send the email normally Additional info:the thunderbird-2.0.0.16-1.fc9.x86_64 could reproduce the bug ,too
Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce it here with the same version of TB on F9, so your backtrace would be the only information we have. First of all, try to reproduce the bug while running thunderbird in safe mode (run thunderbird -safe-mode from the command line). If you are not able to reproduce it then, I would blame some of extensions you have installed. Please install thunderbird-debuginfo (debuginfo-install is from yum-utils package). debuginfo-install thunderbird Then run thunderbird with a parameter -g. That will start thunderbird running inside of gdb debugger. Then use command run and do whatever you did to make thunderbird crash. When it happens, you should go back to the gdb and run (gdb) thread apply all backtrace This produces usually many screens of the text. Copy all of them into a text editor and attach the file to the bug as an uncompressed attachment. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for your reply.And I tried it again to reproduce the bug. First,in the safe mode: Step: 1.Write a new email,also insert a smiley face into the content without typing the space before. 2.Type the space after the smiley face continually A moment later,the bug report dialog popped up.And there was some information in the terminal.I've copied that and attached them in the attachment. Second,install the thunderbird-debuginfo,and then did the reproduce: Step: 1.typed thunderbird -g in the termenal,and then type run to start up the thunderbird. 2.Write a new email,also insert a smiley face into the content without typing the space before. 3.Type the space after the smiley face continually There wasn't a bug report dialog popped up , but the thunderbird could not be used from this time,we must close it by force.And there was a error info in the terminal, and I copied them and also attach them into the attachment. Please check them again. Thanks all the same!!

Mentioned : In the fedora 9 x86_64 system ,when we use the thunderbird to write a letter,and insert a smiley face after a word without any space. We can't type any space after the smiley face unless you type some other words after that.But the thunderbird doesn't crash.
But in the fedora 9 i386 system , the crash occurred.
(In reply to comment #2) > Please check them again. The information looks very interesting and you have certainly persuaded me, that we have a problem. Passing the batton to developers to let them to their best.
One small question -- could you try to switch all accessibility options (if you actually don't need them) and check whether it helps? Take a look at System/Settings/Personal/Assistive Technologies
Thanks for your suggestion,I've check the accessibilities,and it seemed no use for the bug. Thank you all the same.
I have a similar problem with thunderbird-2.0.0.21-1.fc10.x86_64 on Rawhide (can't use thunderbird-3 becoause of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=493000 ) Whenever I type "ed " ("ed<space>" without the quotes) in an email thunderbird dies. This happens even in safe-mode: $ thunderbird -safe-mode /usr/lib64/thunderbird-2.0.0.21/run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 4580 Segmentation fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"} It also happens if I paste text containing "ed " into an email, and does not matter if it is part of a word or the only text in the email. FWIW. all accessibility options are turned off, and all other rawhide packages are up to date.

For some reason "Check spelling as you type" was enabled and language set to en_HK. After disabling this thunderbird does no longer crash. Do you want me to enable it and du the backtraces anyway?

(In reply to comment #13) with the thunderbird 2.0.0.21-1 in both rhel5u3 and fedora10 ,I could not reproduce this bug again, but could not input the space after a smiley face if there is no space between the words and smiley face. For example, compose a mail with the following content asdfasdfa:) (attention: :) stands for a smiley face) Worth mentioned,I could not reproduce the comment 12 issues on any of my box, ed<space> is ok for me
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
