That's odd.
Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2020-09-23 19:41:50 UTC
KBookmarkManager::saveAs() shows a critical messagebox at #25, which runs a nested event loop. The object tree is probably modified because of user actions that are handled there.

Valgrind log

I am not entirely sure if am hitting this one, please check the attachment.

In my case if i run dolphin throw valgrind it will crash immediately.
Running it normally it will open but as soon as i right click over any white space or over folder/file in the dolphin window it will crash with no logs or dumps indicating what happen.

Introduced by this, I think:

commit 9f268f5f76a4a4f0c91abcc213e159c8bde4869c
  Author: Kai Uwe Broulik <kde@privat.broulik.de>
  Date:   Tue May 5 12:05:18 2020 +0200
  
      Don't use local URL for KMoreTool
      
      This method is called a billion times and spawns a blocking(!) StatJob.
      KFind can search local URLs, too, so I don't see why this is necessary.
      Either way, I'd rather have a non-KDE search tool broken than the app.
      Ideally, I'd like this entire thing redone to use an async StatJob, if any.
      Fwiw the KMoreTools in the free space bar doesn't use a local URL either.

MRs welcome :)
Comment 8 Martin Sandsmark 2020-12-14 12:57:33 UTC
Don't really know how to fix it easily apart from reverting the implementation commits, I don't think it is easily fixable without re-implementing the commits introducing this.
Comment 9 Martin Sandsmark 2020-12-14 13:45:13 UTC
FWIW, what I mean (and I might be wrong): the common thing with a lot of the recently introduced crashes is that people are removing the ::exec()-s, without fixing the original reasons they weren't asynchronous.

So the easiest fix is to revert back to the old synchronous behavior, and then cleaning up the "architecture" (in this case I think there is an assumption on ordering wrt. creation of widgets and actions that is broken).

dolphin (20.12.0) using Qt 5.15.2

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

The first time was after opening qBittorrent. After that, Dolphin won't start.

dolphin (20.12.0) using Qt 5.15.2

Last night I updated 6 apps using the discover app:
 libpipewire-0.3-0:amd64 (0.3.17-0xneon+20.04+focal+build8, 0.3.18-0xneon+20.04+focal+build10), pipewire:amd64 (0.3.17-0xneon+20.04+focal+build8, 0.3.18-0xneon+20.04+focal+build10), distro-release-notifier:amd64 (0.0+p20.04+git20201129.0022-0, 0.0+p20.04+git20201216.0022-0), libspa-0.2-modules:amd64 (0.3.17-0xneon+20.04+focal+build8, 0.3.18-0xneon+20.04+focal+build10), libpipewire-0.3-modules:amd64 (0.3.17-0xneon+20.04+focal+build8, 0.3.18-0xneon+20.04+focal+build10), pipewire-bin:amd64 (0.3.17-0xneon+20.04+focal+build8, 0.3.18-0xneon+20.04+focal+build10)

And today I wanted to open the Dolphin app, which gave me an error every time

Comment 12 Martin Sandsmark 2020-12-21 17:04:45 UTC
this issue is pretty bad, dolphin is basically impossible to use without manually finding the config file and deleting it.

can anyone experiencing this try reverting 9f268f5f76a4a4f0c91abcc213e159c8bde4869c and see if that helps?
Comment 13 Martin Sandsmark 2020-12-21 17:07:06 UTC
never mind, I think it is fixed by this: https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/commit/c95d7fae79a309ed7f2df393fa20257cb20d54a8

so test with current git master and see if it is fixed, I guess
Comment 14 Ali 2020-12-24 13:06:15 UTC
I took a screenshot and when I wanted to determine the path of the save, I tried it with dolphin and now it has been fixed!
