I'm pretty sure this has been fixed, download the latest nightly. Uninstall the busted build, and re-install the latest. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9a5pre) Gecko/20070531 Minefield/3.0a5pre Firefox/3.0 ID:2007053112 [cairo]

Downloaded and installed every hourly on the 29th. Something occurred in the range listed at the link above. There was a similar issue with the nightly on the 29th that had a respin, but this is after that. Consistent crash with every build after 2007-05-29-1542

To answer your question, reports are stored in %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports in a "pending" or "submitted" folder. The name of the file will be a GUID. You can view a report by going to https://crash-reports.mozilla.com/reports/report/index/<GUID> where <GUID> is the GUID of the filename. (Soon we'll have a submit form for this on https://crash-reports.mozilla.com/reports, but you'll have to manually use the URL for now.)

Could be: https://crash-reports.mozilla.com/reports/report/list?signature=ReadCMAPTableFormat12 That's suspiciously similar to the other startup crash.

Had it "send" one crash report, Crash ID: bp-2d8b2600-0fe3-11dc-b1f5-001a4bd43ef6 shows in the "Submitted" folder text file. Could not find it in the database using the link above, even after some hours. Had it create but not submit a second report. I zipped and emailed to Adam the dmp and extra files from that crash, hopefully they can make their way into the system with his assistance. Crash ID for that one would be e082caf9-b45d-460d-b245-2c2843308d08 if it makes its way into the database.

Per Adam, need to use a nightly for crash reports to have value, so tested with the 06-01-04 nightly. Not sure if breakpad is actually submitting the error reports since I can never find them using the UUID from the submitted text file. Might be related to profile or Profile Manager(?)...here's my reasoning: 1)Run firefox.exe without a profile existing, new profile is created but crash 2)Run firefox.exe with -safemode argument and no profile, new profile is created but crash 3)Run firefox.exe with -profilemanager argument and no profile, profile is NOT created but crash still occurs.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say this is the same startup crash: https://crash-reports.mozilla.com/reports/report/index/366fd47d-0ee8-11dc-bf6c-001a4bd46e84

The report luser links to came from my machine; it indeed crashes with either -profilemanager, -safemode or nothing at all.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377950 (Need to get real cmaps from fonts) has been marked as fixed, but that did not fix my startup issue. The 2007-06-02-04 nightly still crashes in the same way.

Same here...

With Sysinternals Process Monitor, I discovered that the last font it loads and the fonts it crashes on are fonts from Wolfram's Mathematica... deleted those and Minefield now starts up perfectly :-) There probably just needs to be some exception handling code on the font loading thing...

(In reply to comment #12) I've got Mathematica (v5.2 for students) installed on my Vista machine and it works fine. Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9a6pre) Gecko/20070603 Minefield/3.0a6pre ID:2007060304 [cairo] On the other hand, the XP box that does exhibit the crashing also has Mathematica, and removing the fonts makes the more recent nightlies start up fine.

It would be good to know what fonts people are crashing on so that I can reproduce. Can anyone reproduce this in the debugger?

OK. Guys, after reading your posts on Mathematica fonts crashing Minefield, I realized I had those special fonts for use with Abiword word processing program (http://www.abisource.com/) and BANG! After uninstalling those fonts, I can run Minefield again! Stuart: You can find the fonts downloading the Abiword plugin: http://web.mit.edu/atticus/www/mathml/mit-mathml-fonts-1.0-fc1.msi I hope this helps...

I have them installed (just uninistalled and re-installed to check) and it doesn't crash Minefield here.

Yes. Strange indeed. After reading your comment, I reinstalled the fonts and tried to launch Minefield. Crash! Bang! Bum! Crashed immediately. Tried again - crash again... Then, I uninstalled the fonts - Minefield initialize OK... So, I can reproduce the crash at will by installed these fonts - at least here, that is... Just in case, the package I've installed is MIT MathML Fonts 1.0 (as it is displayed on the Windows Add or Remove Programs. Do you have version 1.0 too?

Me neither...

I can't reproduce the crash with the linked-to fonts :/

I sent Stuart the 2 Mathematica fonts that cause my system to fail. Sent them offline since they are copyrighted. Of the 28 fonts (7 fonts of 4 type/weights each) only 2 fonts cause the problem. They seem to be mathematica5m.ttf and mathematica5mb.ttf that cause the problem.

I can confirm. Having either installed causes Minefield to crash.

Confirmed here too. Installing either mathematica5m.ttf and mathematica5mb.ttf causes a crash. Can be reproduced at will...

I can add to this that starting Mathematica here when Firefox is running causes Firefox to crash... never seen this kind of stuff before. Firefox also won't start when Mathematica is active. Mathematica is probably loading those fonts anyway and Firefox somehow gets involved. This was all reported by Talkback (not by the new crash reporter) so I don't have a crash id.

I'm going to try to find someone with Mathematica installed so I can debug this.. Just installing the fonts doesn't crash for me.

Should be easier to get someone to debug this now: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Using_the_Mozilla_symbol_server

Going to try to get this into A6, but hard to reproduce. Per Stuart.

fix the old bogus code

actually, this won't fix the format12 crash but will fix a format4 one....

Comment on attachment 269719 [details] [diff] [review] v1.0 nevermind, i filed 385793 on the format4 crash.

anyone been able to reproduce this now with the new nightly symbols? The only thing I can really think of is that aLength < 16... I'll try sticking a NS_ENSURE_TRUE(aLength > 16, NS_ERROR_FAILURE); at the beginning of the function just incase...

OK, I'm going to mark this fixed and cross my fingers that my checkin fixed it for everyone. If not, please reopen and I'll see what else I can try.
