[Bug 1716068] Re: Gnome Shell crashes randomly
The crash occurs (during the software updates) regardless of whether I run the "gnome-shell --replace" command. I was only running the command before installing the software updates (and therefore, before the crash happened) in one specific session per Ubuntu release in order to get debug information when the crash happens (above). I would never run it in a normal scenario. I crashed gnome-shell on Ubuntu 16.04 again (without running the "gnome- shell --replace" command) and added a symbolic stacktrace, which I managed to upload to Launchpad using the ubuntu-bug command (I needed to enable Apport in 16.04 LTS by commenting-out a line in /etc/apport/crashdb.conf).

[Bug 1716068] Re: Gnome Shell crashes randomly
Sometimes crash reports don't work reliably. I can confirm it failed to log a new bug for you: https://bugs.launchpad.net/~jstevz4teh1337/+reportedbugs?orderby=-id=0 Of course, you shouldn't be running 'gnome-shell --replace' normally unless it's already crashed beforehand. Had it crashed before you ran that command? Even still, it sounds like a dangerous way to restart the shell because the act of it restarting might kill your terminal which is now the parent of the shell. So restarting the shell like that could make it crash immediately, unless you also do: nohup gnome-shell --replace & Please answer the question in the previous paragraph and also try the above more correct command instead. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716068 Title: Gnome Shell crashes randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1716068/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1716068] Re: Gnome Shell crashes randomly
Thanks for the reply! I'm not quite sure how to find the bug ID for the report sent in comment #3. After running the "ubuntu-bug _usr_bin_gnome-shell.1000.crash" command I saw a dialog asking to either "Examine Locally" or "Continue", the latter of which I clicked (with the "Send error report" checkbox marked). Nothing appeared on my screen after clicking "Continue" to give me a report ID. Did I do something wrong when reporting the bug? I ran "gnome-shell --replace" from the standard Gnome Terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) immediately before running the Software Updater, and the "Segmentation Fault" error showed up in the Terminal window beside the Software Updater window at the time of the crash. As the errors only appeared in 16.04, 16.10 and 17.04 (which don't have Wayland) I was using Xorg in these cases. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716068 Title: Gnome Shell crashes randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1716068/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It looks like we won't be able to figure out the root cause of your crash until the robots can analyse and retrace it. Please let us know the new bug ID created in comment #3 if you know it. P.S. What kind of terminal are you running "gnome-shell --replace" from? That sounds like it should be impossible, or you are using a Xorg session in which case you will have some basic windows to type in after the shell/window manager crashed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716068 Title: Gnome Shell crashes randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1716068/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1716068] Re: Gnome Shell crashes randomly
I've been testing Ubuntu Gnome 16.10 and 17.04 and the same issue happens on them. When running "gnome-shell --replace" in a Terminal before preforming the software updates, I see a "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" error in the Terminal when the crash happens. However, the issue never appears when using the current builds of Ubuntu 17.10, both in Wayland and Xorg. Perhaps the updated GJS interpreter fixed the issue. I still wonder if it's possible to patch the Gnome Shell package in Ubuntu 16.04 to fix this bug for the LTS users (who expect stability in their system until 2021). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1716068 Title: Gnome Shell crashes randomly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1716068/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for the bug report. In order to get a readable stack trace from that crash file please run this command on the machine it came from: ubuntu-bug _usr_bin_gnome-shell.1000.crash That will log a new bug with the required automated analysis we need.
