i was getting the same error message with a bad libpthread.so in /usr/lib (/usr/lib/libthread* not pointing to /lib/libpthread*) after fixing this problem mozilla and firefox give errors like: /usr/lib/mozilla/mozilla-xremote-client: Error: Failed to send command: No error string reported.. Browser doesn't understand command older builds still work which makes me think theres something wrong in the includes. i moved all mozilla base packages and uninstalled nss and nspr and remove all ns* headers except nss.h, so im not sure what to do now.
I'm raising the priority, since no one seems to have noticed this issue yet. I'm sure you'll agree that a computer without a working web browser is not terribly useful.
mozilla 1.7.3-r3 segfaults. firefox 1.0-r3 works for me.
I've got this message: Is this the same problem? No running windows found /usr/bin/firefox: line 88: 7072 Segmentation fault $mozbin "$@"
That appears to be the same problem, yes.
The following forum thread suggests upgrading to gcc 3.4 to fix this problem: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=254882 I haven't tried it yet, and I'm a bit wary about doing so...
Yeah, I tried upgrading to 3.4, but as the Changelog for gcc says, it dies while trying to build xgcc. I don't know how to get around that. Downgrade to 3.2 first? It seems kind of silly. I just wish this thing would resolve itself.
I did compile firefox with 3.4 and yet, this has happened to me. Firefox worked okay, until I tried to open some russian mailinglist archive site found via google earlier today. FF segfaulted and since then I get the same error message, both for firefox and mozilla.
That sounds more like a bug in firefox than a result of bad compilation as it appears everyone else here has.
Surprisingly enough, it started to work again afrer a reboot. Is my system becoming a Windows, or what? :/
This happens to me as well. mozilla doesn't work. epiphany doesn't work. however firefox-1.0-r3 does work for me. I tried downgrading mozilla all the way back to 1.7.3 which was what I had upgraded from, but that no longer worked for me anymore either. So it seems to be some other package that was upgraded since when I had 1.7.3 working. I suspect that If i rebuilt firefox, that it wouldn't work anymore either, and I am hesitant to loose my last working browser, so may not try this. I will attach my emerge history with a few embeded coments of when things were working and not working in case it helps. My current guess is that one of the packages installed between Sun Nov 21 21:47:14 2004 >>> net-www/mozilla-firefox-1.0-r3 and Sat Dec 4 20:51:06 2004 >>> net-www/mozilla-1.7.3-r3 breaks something in the mozilla rendering engine.
Created attachment 45802 [details] emerge history I think one of these packages breaks the mozilla rendering engine.

I had this identical problem, but after deleting the .mozilla dir in the homedir of the user trying to start it the problem went away.
Ben, deleting .mozilla was the first thing I tried. It obviously did not good. I'm hoping that gcc 3.4.3 and the latest mozilla will fix this. But at the moment, I can't compile gcc 3.4.3. See 75116.
I have been having the exact same problem and the person that started the bug for about 3-4 days now. No one on the #gentoo channel seems to know what the problem is and I can't seem to figure out what is breaking mozilla but the bug seems to be quite serious. The segmentation fault is not random at all and is not due to some configuration problem. As far as I can tell it has to do with some package that mozilla uses to render pages and the problem does not happen every time. If you try to load a site like google or msn it works but more complex stuff like gentoo.org makes every browser that is based on mozilla to fail. I have mozilla 1.7.5 with glibc 2.6.0 gtk 2.6.0 but I have tried just about any other combination of glibc and gtk. If I had to guess right now I would say that pango 1.8.0 is causing the problem. However, I still have to test this out and verify it. Also the severity should be adjusted to major and not blocker. There is no problem compiling the software ...
Pango is not the problem. There is something else. Oh yeha and this problem exists also on x86. (which is what I have).
With no disrespect, I do not think this is the same problem. Your web browser actually starts. Mine does not. This means my problem is more severe than a regular bug. I am actually typing this comment in through lynx. This is definitely a blocker.
The reason why I said that it's not a blocker is because I thought that blocker status means that the bug preven't you from being able to compile the package. I reread the descriptions of the different severity levels and you are right. :)
Would you mind posting the output of emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose mozilla-firefox or emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose mozilla (whichever one you use). Thanks.
I managed to fix this bug by compiling mozilla and firefox with gcc 3.4.3. Please see bug 75116. If that solves it, I'll close this bug.
This doesn't solve my problem because I was compiling with gcc 3.4.3 the whole time. However, I already know what the problem is and there is another bug open that is a lot closer to the one that I have than this one.
I have started getting this bug after an update from Freetype 2.1.5 to Freetype 2.1.9. Can it be related? (always using gcc 3.4.3).
Created attachment 46690 [details] firefox crash backtrace Attached a backtrace of the crash, always reproducible over here by visiting www.vmware.com
Confirm this bug. Various html content segfault gecko based browsers. I always use mozilla. Haven't had a this issue with 1.7.3. When 1.7.5 came out I updated to it. Since then I've had the segfaulting on two completly different x86 systems. I then emerged firefox to see if that would work, firefox also segfaults on same sites. So something in the content of those sites makes it crash (www.namesys.com for example is a nother). I emerged ff-bin to see if that would help, but it's not so it isn't compiletime related, but runtime library related. The freetype hinted before might be well causing this. This also means that a lot more gentoo users will start getting this problem. I currently am using ACCEPT="~x86" so i do have bleeding edge on everything.
The problem comes from freetype and not mozilla. Make sure that you are not running freetype 2.1.9 or 2.1.9-r1 and your browser will start working again. Too bad gimp-2.2 won't work with freetype 2.1.5 ...
Indeed it is a freetype problem, but mozilla should be fixed since we will eventually move forward from Freetype 2.1.5 (2.1.9 is already in ~x86, that is why I have it installed). Another point here, I am using X.org 6.7 (since ATI drivers die on openGL stuff in 6.8, and they will release new drivers no earlier than mid-Jan). I have read somewhere in the X mailing lists that this new Freetype issue is fixed in the new Xft, which made its way to X.org 6.8. Can anyone confirm that they run X.org 6.8 and still have mozilla crashing on www.namesys.com? Or are we all disgruntled ATI customers on X.org 6.7 experiencing this crash :)
I am also using 6.7 (due to ATi driver BS) with freetype 2.1.9. Might give 6.8 a try without ati drivers. Don't do any 3D much at the moment anyhow. It still stinks though.
Same problem, firefox - mozilla crashs on select websites with Segmentation fault. Running 6.7 due to ATI hardware. Downgrading freetype worked. Do the new ATI drivers not come out till Jan? I thought they where *supposed* to come out in Dec?
Due some last minute changes they wheren't done till the 23rd of dec. They are waiting for the webguys to put the release online. I just upgraded to Xorg 6.8 and segfaults have dissapeared aswell. (on namesys.com and vmware.com so far) I think there should be a guard in the ebuild that won't let you emerge the mozilla, freetype 2.1.9, xorg 6.7 combo. It seems as it's a freetype 2.1.9 xorg 6.7 problem So i'd recommend not to allow more than freetype 2.1.5 in combination with 6.7.
The ati-driver package should block the upgrade of X.org 6.7 in the first place, which doesn't happen in at this moment (it is still the other way around, you can't install ati-drivers with 6.8). I just emerged freetype and the problems began. I was under the impression the block was for Freetype-old and Firefox-new, not for Freetype and X.org.
Downgrading freetype-2.1.9 to freetype-2.1.5 seems to fix the freezes in firefox. I'm running Xorg-x11-6.7 and ati-drivers-3.14.6.
Mozilla finally works for me again. I ended up doing an emerge -e world. I currently have: xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4 freetype-2.1.9-r1 mozilla-1.7.5
Uh This is an old bug.

I have the same problem (I'm using an amd64 system). Mozilla-firefox-bin(32bit for flash) works. Epiphany (compiled 64bit) crashes when entering advanced web pages such as slashdot. Mozilla segfaults directly: > mozilla No running windows found /usr/bin/mozilla: line 415: 25822 Segmentation fault $mozbin "$@" Epiphany and mozilla is using the same libraries.

I noticed that I had done a recompilation of glibc the night before, and it was this that solved the problem. This is strange because there was no upgrade, and no change in CFLAG settings (not even newer -rX) (I had a 3 days old installation). Recompilation of glibc without recompilation of mozilla/thunderbird didn't do any difference, but when compiling them after the recompilation they both worked.

Jonas Ådahl: Which version of libc are you using? sys-libs/glibc-2.3.4.20041102? sys-libs/glibc-2.3.4.20050125? Can you paste here the output of an emerge info? BTW, I thought you solved the problem switching USE flags (debug mozdevelop)... Recompilation of glibc and gcc on ~amd64 (20050125) do not work here.
The mozdevelop thing was the first thought that came to me, but then I remembered that I had recompiled glibc some hours before.
