Description Sawan Gupta 2012-06-29 08:30:03 UTC
Opening a particular URL crashes both firefox and KDE.

I am using firefox 13 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. Tried to open the following URL
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora_Draft_Documentation/0.1/html/RPM_Guide/ch-command-reference.html

Both firefox and my KDE session dies.

kded --version
Qt: 3.3.6
KDE: 3.5.4-25.el5_4.1 Red Hat
KDE Daemon: $Id: kded.cpp 534738 2006-04-27 18:04:45Z lunakl $


I attached gdb to firefox from a SSH session and captured the following log:

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch URL http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora_Draft_Documentation/0.1/html/RPM_Guide/ch-command-reference.html on firefox 13
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
firefox and kde crashes and I get the initial login screen.

Expected Results:  
URL should have opened. If firefox crashes, kde should not.
Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2012-06-29 12:22:51 UTC
> my KDE session dies

It is very likely that the Xorg server crashes because of Firefox. Please check the xorg.log files, or otherwise attach a backtrace if the crash is in a KDE component.

I didn't see anything weird in Xorg.0.log file

How /var/log/messages show the following:

You have to check the Xorg.log of the previous server start, not that of the current. The file is usually named "Xorg.0.log.old".

Here it says the X server failed.

I think KDE3 has been unmaintained for a long time.
Comment 5 Sawan Gupta 2012-06-30 01:12:58 UTC
Xorg.0.log.old and Xorg.0.log are almost similar without any crash/failure error info.
