RE: seamonkey april 22 build (1999-04-22-21) on Linux We are (Peter Mock and me) experiencing apprunner application crash when we launch the mail application steps to crash on Linux 1. Run apprunner 2. From Tasks, select messenger, application crashes every time I launch messenger. 100% reproducible The error message: RITICAL **: file gtkbox.c: line 332 (gtk_box_pack_start): assertion `child->parent == NULL' failed. menu selected Created nsToolkitCore XML Error in file 'file:////u/fenella/seamonkey/sea042221/package/res/mailnews/messenger/mailshell.xul', Line Number: 202, Col Number: 8, Description: udfndett Source Line: lick="MsgOpenAttachment();"/> Segmentation fault (core dumped) 3. However, if I try to launch the mail application from the command line using: ./apprunner -url resource:/res/mailnews/messenger/mailshell.xul apprunner does not crash, but it does not open messenger And the error message is: Setting content window Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkbox.c: line 332 (gtk_box_pack_start): assertion `child->parent == NULL' failed. On Linux: On Linux, apprunner crashes when I first launch messenger RE: win32 seamonkey build (1999-04-22-16) On Win_NT 4.0: steps to crash is a little different 1. Run apprunner.exe 2. Select messenger from Tasks, no crash here 3. Close the application 4. Launch apprunner.exe again 5. Select messenger from Tasks, this time, apprunner crashes. On window, it crashes the second time, not the first time. Both Esther and I tried it. It is 100% reproducible.
