oops, I mean it may have been a quirk of that day's build.
I'll check it again when we get today's builds, but using the jun14 builds there
is still a crash -- not at the offline main panel, but when you select Download.
(Also, I'm not able to get to preferences through Messenger, only through
Browser window.)

hmm. I'm wondering if has to do with the order you open panels, and nothing to
do with the panel itself... can you experiment some more opening and closing
panels?
Comment 8•25 years ago

Sorry, I don't mean opening and closing panels, I mean switching between
panels...
No apparent pattern, but yes I can crash fairly easily switching from panel to
panel (or subpanels) within just about any section, not just mailnews. Crashes
within two or three switches.
Here's a gdb trace from linux from one of my tries:

ugh, this doesn't sound like it's me then. Reassigning to mcmullen...I'll bet he
knows about this though, and it doesn't really look like his area of expertise
anyway..
Comment 11•25 years ago

I wonder what alecf thinks my "area of expertise" is?
Anyway, this stack trace is wrong, if it comes from switching panels after the
window opens, and it is my bug. showWindow should not be called a second time.
Since it is, the crash is unsurprising.

I have fixed the crashes/freezes switching between panels (except that the panels
sometimes don't redraw until you resize the window. But that would not be my
bug.)

Comment 15•25 years ago

Using the jun19 m7 builds on Linux, Mac and NT, there is still a problem with
crashing.
Switching most panels seems to be better, but I can consistently crash in these
cases:
1. selecting the Download panel under Offline (NT & Linux & Mac)
2. selecting the Colors panel under Appearance (NT & linux & mac)
3. selecting Smart Update panel under Advanced (linux)
4. Generally selecting a subpanel before its parent panel when switching
across pref areas. (linux & mac)

These panels may have malformed xul. If so, this is similar to, but not
necessarily a duplicate of #8185. cc: matt.

I'm starting to realize that changing the pref panels from html to XUL was a bit
premature. XUL may not yet be ready for the bigtime.

Comment 19•25 years ago
|
||
My hunch was right. Case 1 was caused by an extra </html:table> closing tag.
Investigating the remaining cases now...
Comment 20•25 years ago
|
||
Case (2) was title = &window.label; (an undefined entity) when it should have
been &window.title;
Moving on to case (3)
Comment 21•25 years ago
|
||
Case (3) had an extra </table> tag, a bad style sheet URL (that was not updated
when we converted to the chrome directories), and a sequence
<table><form></table></form>.
Moving on to case (4)
Comment 22•25 years ago

There is no case (4). After fixing these three specific cases, it doesn't crash
any more.

Fixes checked in to M8 (didn't quite make M7). There's another bug that bites if
you DOUBLE-click the preference topics, filed by chofmann (#8608).

Using the jun22 m8 build, I'm still able to crash using my scenario of
alternating subpanels to panels of a different area heading (crash below).
The specific panels which crashed in m7 seem to be ok now.
Will report findings for Mac and Windows with m8 later.

Using jun22 m8 am able to crash on Mac OS 8.51. Don't have a Talkback report
since today's commercial build (with Talkback) doesn't launch but have attached
Macsbug log.

Can't seem to reproduce using NT 4.0 with jun22 m8.
Comment 29•25 years ago

We have to be absolutely clear on one thing. Double-clicking on topics creates a
known fatal bug. The present bug only covers behavior when you single-click.
Rapidly clicking (before a previous panel has loaded) will probably cause the
same problem as double-clicking a single panel. Let's be sure the stack trace
below was not caused by double-clicking.
Comment 30•25 years ago
|
||
I was careful not to double-click, but I did move through lots of panels
quickly. So it may be similar results to the double-click as you've suggested.
