Firefox crashes, sigsegv, log included

So_it_goes · November 18, 2007

Hi

Recently Firefox 2.0.0.8 is crashing frequently( kdm as well but I'll start a new thread for that ).

I'm running 2007.1, installed from disk and updatetd with easy-urpmi setup.

Kernel 2.6.17-16md

Found a thread where Scarecrow gave a tip on how to trace firefox !

Got firefox running and got a sigsegv and this is the last part of the logfile.

The trace may be useful, but the first thing you should check is if it's starting at safe mode:

firefox -safe-mode %u

If it does, then it's either your theme, or some extension the one to blame.

The other thing is checking the permissions of the (hidden) folder /home/USER/.mozilla/

Everything in there should be readable and writable by USER- else Firefox may not start at all.

Hi

Thanks for the suggestions Scarecrow

Any more debug hints/tools ?

- firefox -safe-mode,starts.

- firefox -safe-mode %u,starts but at www.%u.com

- all the files/directories in ~/.mozilla is rw for USER.

- The theme is the default theme.

- Extensions

Why should they start acting weird now ?

In that case it must be caused by an update of an extension or mandriva.

And if I remember correctly , NoScript is the only extension updated

the last few weeks.

If it was causing the problem more users should've noticed.

But anyway I'll try it with my 'odd' extensions disabled.
