Bug Description

Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

Hi! I got a problem with a thunderbird version 1.5.0.12 (20070604)
My account is on IMAP with SSL

When i click on some mails, thunderbird crashes.
At each time I try to read them, thunderbird crashes, and I notice than the mail is now marked as read.
(I have approximatively 4000 mails, but newer mails car be read)

I run thunderbird in a terminal, the terminal says:
>jeff@jeff-laptop:~$ mozilla-thunderbird
>DOUBLE-CLICK: 400 --> -1 THRESHOLD: 8 --> -1 Segmentation fault
>jeff@jeff-laptop:~$

I don't know how to give more details on the crash, tried to create a "backtrace" but don't succeed (it says that mozilla-thunderbird is not an executable (and it's true as it is a bourne launching script))
If you explain me how to do, i will do.

I've selected "This bug is a security vulnerability" as a memory corruption could create some security holes.

In an other way, i give this repport to help the devel team, but i'd like to now if there is a more reliable way (text mode...) to run thunderbird in order to read the mail that causes the crash.

PS: I'm french, try to be clear in your answers please :-)

The mail that causes bugs on thunderbird & FIREFOX Edit (20.0 KiB, application/x-tar)

I got the same error if i try reply / forward / ... (right click on the email in the inbox list > contextual menu)
But I succed to save the mail on my disk (and i'm now able to read it with vi/gedit)
But the most interesting is here:
I TRIED TO ATTACH THE .EML FILE TO THIS BUG REPORT AND FIREFOX CRASHED (when i clicked on "open" in the file selection window)!
so i've created a .tar of this damned mail
enjoy it :-)

sorry, i said something wrong:
i can forward the message and when i click on it, i see the begining of it in the "viewer" frame, but when i try to see what is below the first lines, i got the same error.

PS: why is there no "edit" button on the bug reports comments...

Is this email sensitive? Would you mind if I made this bug report public so that other developers can try to help solve the crash?

This email is not sensitive and I think it could help to solve the crash.
So you can make it public.

Can you please see if you can reproduce using version 1.5.0.13-0ubuntu0.7.04 and maybe try a new profile. If you can grab a crash report that will also help us track down your issue. Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs/ for more info on the above.

Do you want me to do the test on firefox or on thunderbird?
The link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs/ you gave me is a guide designed for firefox... (but may be also usable for thdb)

yes, please adapt the examples to thunderbird. Basically you need to
install the dbg packages in order to get a proper retrace.

Thanks in advance.

I tried to read the mail that makes thunderbird crash on my laptop with my kubuntu desktop pc and it works!
it has the same thunderbird version (1.5.0.13) and the same extensions (français language pack 1.5.0.10 enabled and English (GB) Language Pack 1.5.0.10 disabled)! Moreover I use the same server and the same configuration!

I start the the tests on my laptop...

gdb-thunderbird backtrace Edit (11.3 KiB, text/plain)

Download full text (12.1 KiB)

I tried with a new profile => I get the same error than befor when trying to read the damned mail:

jeff@jeff-laptop:~$ mozilla-thunderbird -ProfileManager
DOUBLE-CLICK: 400 --> -1 THRESHOLD: 8 --> -1 DOUBLE-CLICK: 400 --> -1 THRESHOLD: 8 --> -1 Segmentation fault

I keep using the new profile for the following tests.

I tried to follow the instructions of the firefox debugging guide, but i didn't find an equivalent of firefox-dbg package for thunderbird so i installed firefox-dbg.

there are the results of the backtrace generation test found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs:

I am receiving the same problem. I've been running 6.10 until upgrading to 7.04 a few days ago. Email was working find, then it just started crashing.
I can open thunderbird, but when I select a folder, it shows a list of messages then crashes.

I also run IMAP under SSL.

I have experienced same problem on Ubuntu7.10 64 bit O/S.
Adding msttcorefonts did not help.
Uninstalling thunderbird completely and re-installing including place-holder packages mozilla-thunderbird and mozilla-enigmail have apparently solved the problem.

I've also experienced a segfault problem on 7.10 64bits.
I've seen a call to /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libubuntulooks.so in the gdb backtrace making me realize that the crashes started when I changed the default gtk theme (I'm using fluxbox) to Human (default gtk theme of ubuntu) Reswitching the theme to another one (Industrial) solved the problem.

Thunderbird 1.5 is no longer supported. Please let us know if this is still an issue on Thunderbird 2. You can change the status back to new if it is.

I also experienced this bug in thunderbird 2 with newest ubuntu (9.04). Reinstalling solves the problem.
