RE: Linux seamonkey build (1999-04-12-09) Steps 1. Run apprunner.exe 2. From Tasks, select Messenger, 3. I get a core dump from launching mail application. Unable to do further mail testings. This problem occurs to other QA too. FindMsgAppCore: Creating AppCore Initializing MsgAppCore and setting Window nsMsgAppCore::SetWindow(): Getting the webShell of interest... Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This is not happening when launching mail for me, but when getting messages. Makes the build pretty useless.
Summary: Crash when launching mail application → regression: Crash when launching mail application
Target Milestone: M4
New regression for the 4-12 build on Linux. Setting target milestone to M4 since this is a stopper for us.
Priority: P3 → P1
Geez. Seth tells me that he's crashing on the M5 tree and not the M4 branch. QA has been just getting one notification from release team and there is no mention whether the builds they're telling us about are M4 branch or M5. Jan will clarify; meanwhile, Seth will look into the crash.

This should be moved to M5. This bug does not occur on second April 09 build, correct? This is a April 12 build bug yes? If so, please move to M5.
Target Milestone: M4 → M5
Yes, this is an M5 bug. 1999040915 (M4 builds) are ok.
I just checked in the fix. It was causing a crash on Linux and Windows. (curse uninitialized memory.)

Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
RE: Linux builds (1999-04-16-08, 1999-04-19-08,1999-04-20-08 and 1999-04-21-08) RE: win32 builds (1999-04-16-08, 1999-04-19-08,1999-04-20-10 and 1999-04-21-08) I verify that mail application no longer crashes in these builds.
