Window refreshes and Mozilla crashes when progress bar reaches about 50%. If multiple browser sessions are open, all browser sessions crash simultaneously. These web sites loaded under 0.9.x [paul@pcp715419pcs paul]$ mozilla --debug LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/java2/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so [/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/java2/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so: undefined symbol: __vt_17nsGetServiceByCID] [paul@pcp715419pcs paul]$ This error message may give you some clues, since I think the problem is java related. I don't know how to do a stack trace. If you tell me how, I'll recreate it.
bug helper did not work and the following information didn't get copied to advanced form ... www.wdecu.com also causes Mozilla to crash when using default settings, but disabling javascript allows web site to load normally.
a) Do you crash if you disable Java in the pref ? b) which JRE Do you use ? c) which Mozilla build do you use ? d) is that a Mozilla build from ftp.mozilla.org ? e) Have you correctly symlinked the plugin ?

Using buildid 20030109 on solaris 8/sparc. Works for me. I could load the sample URL without any trouble. I don't think the page has any java applets on it, though it has a couple of flash items. More to the point, this error is a well-known java compatibility issue on linux. Basically it comes from trying to use the plugin with a copy of mozilla compiled using gcc 3.x. See bug 116444 for the full knock-down drag-out discussion. Paul, can you provide a current status on this? Are you still experiencing this problem? What version of mozilla are you using and where do you get it from? If you're using a copy of mozilla built with gcc 3.x, then this bug should be closed as a duplicate of bug 116444.
This is just a WAG, but the problem could have been a broken dependency somewhere in my RedHat installation. I did upgrade gcc sometime before building Mozilla. Sorry I can't help more. I had so many troubles with stability of RedHat 7.2/7.3/8.0 on my HP Pavilion hardware that I gave up and switched to SuSE 8.1. Mozilla works with www.movietickets.com out of the box (Mozilla/5.0 X11 U Linux i686 en-US rv:1.0.1 Gecko/20020803). Unfortunately, now that I switched to SuSE, RealOne works from the command line, but I can't get the RealOne plugin to work anymore with Konqueror, Mozilla or Opera. But that's completely unrelated to this bug.
I'm going to resolve this. The reporter indicates he's not in a position to reproduce this any more, but that it could have been related to the compiler used to build mozilla. This is probably a dupe of bug 116444. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 116444 ***
