[Bug 1241101] Re: Java crash in libglib-2.0 after upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10

 

I have my own RCP application, built with Eclipse Helios, for multiple
platforms. The problem happens for me when I test the application build
for Linux x86-gtk. Platform: Kubuntu 13.10 (virtualbox machine), JRE:
1.6u45. I get the crash while I use the preference pages and hit the OK
button. No .log is found in workspace/.metadata, just the
hs_err_pidxxxx.log in the app install directory.

The Solaris sparc/intel and win32/64 builds of the app work fine in
Solaris, and so does the linuxx86_64 when tested on CentOS 6.3.

The GTK workaround (System Settings/Application Appearance/GTK/Gtk2
theme Raleigh) works for my application, after a reboot of the VM. But I
do not like this as the look and feel is somewhat old fashioned and not
in line with the rest of the system.

However, and this is my contribution to this discussion, when I run the
application from the command line as root, with sudo <myapp>, the
problem disappears (has anybody tried?). I then thought that it may have
been caused by some missing file access permissions  and temporarily
gave full access to the whole workspace directory but the problem
reappeared, so it is not connected to permissions on the workspace. Also
for me the hs_errxxx.pid point to libgobject-2.0.s0.0+0x16bfe
__float128+0x1e

  I tried different version of Java (Oracle v7 and v6 jre) with same
  result. Also, Eclipse display blank menus so there's a general java
  problem with displays.
