From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.1+) Gecko/20010624 BuildID: 2001062406 Using Red Hat Linux 7.1, Java 2 SDK 1.3.1 FCS (jdk-1.3.1-fcs RPM), Mozilla hangs after the profile selection window is opened. Removing the plugin softlink or starting with a specific profile (via -P) allows the browser to start correctly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install clean Mozilla and Java 2 1.3.1 FCS and create two Mozilla profiles. 2. ln -s $JAVA_HOME/jre/plugin/i386/ns600/libjavaplugin_oji.so $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/plugins/ 3. Try to start Mozilla with either profile. 4. Kill hung Mozilla processes. 5. mozilla -P profile1 6. Close working browser. 7. mozilla -P profile2 8. Close working browser. 9. rm $MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so 10. Start Mozilla with both profiles, closing the working browser after each profile's window is successfully displayed. Actual Results: Using Profile Manager with Java Plugin 1.3.1 FCS causes a browser window hang. Similar results starting with 'mozilla -mail'. Expected Results: Use of Profile Manager shouldn't change behaviour of browser window. Java should work in both cases. Workaround is to specify the desired profile from command line (as described). This has similar symptoms as bug 64351, but that bug is old (this behaviour started recently) and Windows-specific (this occurrence is on Linux). Other bugs with similar descriptions cause hangs on specific pages, i.e. the browser window opens and is usable; in this case the window never opens, so navigation to a page is a non-issue.

This also happens in older (2001062206) and newer (2001062706) builds on Red Hat 6.2 with JDK 1.3.1 RC2. Another workaround is to remove any other Mozilla profiles. Having Netscape 4.x profiles seems to be OK.
