[Bug 372187] Re: nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder
Finally I managed to isolate the culprit. It was a single file, sitting in my NFS-exported home folder. I don't know how it got there (it's an email message), but the filename was a single character, in an unusual encoding. The file is shown by FreeBSD as a diamond with a question mark inside. The file is shown by Ubuntu sometimes as a single question mark. To attach the file to this bug report I have put this file in a folder and created a tar archive. When extracting this tar archive, tar shows this file (tar xvzf ) as '\347'). I have edited the file, and cleared all content, and the problem persists. So the unusual filename is sufficient to cause the crash. The crash can also be reproduced in a local volume (not NFS mounted), so I propose to change the title of this bug report to something like: nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a file with an unusual filename Attached is this empty file (enclosed in an archive). Sometimes (for example when trying to attach the file from firefox, or in File-Open dialogs, the file would be shown by nautilus before crashing as '? invalid encoding'). I cannot reproduce this bug in Ubuntu-9.04 (jaunty) I have copied the tar archive over to a 9.04 box, and also copied the file itself using scp and nautilus would not crash. It would show this filename as a diamond with a question mark inside and would add 'invalid encoding' to the filename. ** Attachment added: A gzipped tar archive containing the file that causes nautilus to crash http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26467871/problematic-nautilus.tar.gz -- nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372187 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

the example doesn't lead to a crash there, what locale do you use? -- nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372187 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 372187] Re: nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder
FYI, I can't reproduce the bug/crash in the following case: I've created a new, fresh account in FreeBSD (the home folder for the new user only contains dotfiles), and a new account in Ubuntu with the same userid. In this case, the NFS mounted volume can be accessed with no problems usinh nautilus. The bug/crash in the original report happens when I access my own home folder (~50 Gb). Will try to check this on jaunty. -- nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372187 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please try to obtain a backtrace following the instructions at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and upload the backtrace (as an attachment) to the bug report. This will greatly help us in tracking down your problem. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete ** Tags removed: crash nautilus nfs -- nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372187 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 372187] Re: nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder
Thanks Chris for the guidance. Attached is the backtrace obtained following the instructions. After 'continue' in line 301 of the backtrace, I clicked on 'Places-Home Folder' in the top menu. This produced the next two lines of output (303,304). Then I clicked on the mountpoint for the NFS shared directory, which produced the SIGABRT. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need me to try/test something more. ** Attachment added: gdb backtrace from nautilus-dbgsym http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26367093/gdb-nautilus.txt -- nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372187 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

could you install the nautilus-dbgsym, libglib2.0-0-dbgsym and gvfs- dbgsym packages and get a new trace? you might also want to get a valgrind log with the instructions requested at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) -- nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372187 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

there is no error in the valgrind log it seems you didn't stop nautilus before running a new one under valgrind and the valgrind one just looked for a running one and let it do its job As I said to Pedro in a separate message, I don't know how to stop nautilus ... every time I kill it a new process is spawned again ... that's why I said that getting the gdb backtrace was easier for me, because there are specific instructions telling me how to attach gdb to an already running process. If you can tell me how to stop nautilus, I'll get the valgrind log again.
