Using build 2000-05-23-10 on win98 only, I crash after the splash screen when launching netscap6.exe. Does not happen on Nt 4.0 or win95 per Grace.

adding keywords, no workaround found yet.

agree- just tried both installs (typical and custom) on 98 and crash both times- after splash screen- error in xpcom.dll

It crashes on my PIII running Win98, but launches ok on my PII running Winnt 4.0 SP6.0.

umm.. isn't this a duplicate of bug 40306 ?

on win2000 and 98, i can see it crashing. Related perhaps to bug 40306, as i crash on the following console line: Profile Manager : Profile Wizard and Manager activites : End

ok, on today's may 24 win32 mozilla build, I crash just like yesterday. I crash on line Profile Manager : Profile Wizard and Manager activites : End in console at module <unknown> Marking this blocker, smoketest keyword and setting to m16. This makes win32 unusable.

why is this assigned to me? reassigning to default component owner.

adding me and shrir to Cc: list...we need to get this fixed ASAP...its problematic in today's 5/24 build also.

chaning summary to "crash launching mozilla", netscape6 in a subject won't get much attention.

This looks very much like a dup of 40294 except it's not on Linux. Are these bugs related?

Can we get a stack or a talkback log, please?

For Win98... The last working build for me was 2000-05-22-09-M16. The following builds all crash at startup: 2000-05-23-10-M16 2000-05-23-21-M16 2000-05-24-09-M16 It makes no difference whether I run the installer versus unzipping. TalkBack does not engage when crash occurs.

could be a dupe of 40294. but, no -profilemanager is need to crash. Plus, it seems to have been fixed by gbush's comment.

I have almost the same problems on W2K but only with the optimized build. The debug builds are starting smoothly, so a stack trace is not possible. It stops at GKGFXWIN() (don't know if that helps)

I have a debug build going right now. Once done, I'll try to get a better stack trace under Win98. (fyi: this is not an installer issue)

Putting on [dogfood+] radar.

the stack is destroyed, I only get two frames, one of which is in GKGFXWIN, and above that is just garbage :(

I got a debug build under Win98, but it doesn't look like it's crashing the same way/place. Here is a snippet of the console window that I get now: ======================================================================= *** Registering xpconnect components (all right -- a generic module!) *** Registering xpconnect test components (all right -- a generic module!) *** Registering nsSoftwareUpdate components (all right -- a generic module!) *** Registering nsPrefModule components (all right -- a generic module!) nsNativeComponentLoader: autoregistering succeeded registering (all right -- a JavaScript module!)*** Deferring registration of sam ple JS components ************************************************************ ** NOTE: This report will only be printed in DEBUG builds.** * Call to xpconnect wrapped JSObject produced this error: * [Exception...

fixed, oh finally fixed.

Problem fixed. Pinkerton just checked in a couple of files in gfx/src/windows that fixes this bug: nsScreenManagerWin.cpp and nsScreenWin.cpp I'll let pinkerton elaborate on the resolution (if he wants to). Thanks also to Bhuvan Racham, Steve Elmer, and Don Melton who help me track down this bug too. The fix will show up in tomorrow's build.

Update: Build 2000-05-24-21 works for me now on Win98. I'll let Grace verify it though.

Working on Windows 2000 too... *fine*

Update: Build 2000-05-24-21 works for me now on Win98 installed on Dell PIII. :) I can successfully launch the commercial build.

build 2000-05-24-21 launching on my Win98

200052508 mozilla nightly build, it is fixed. good work!
