Bug #: 29949 Summary: PAF (Personal Ancestral File) help viewer unhandled page fault Product: Wine Version: 1.4-rc4 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: rmriches@ieee.org Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 38982 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=38982 stdout and stderr from a run that shows the unhandled page fault
This is a regression. This problem does not exist in 1.4-rc3. I plan to run a regression test to find the exact commit. The application is downloadable.
Start from a fresh WINE prefix area with no pre-existing WINE processes running. When starting the application, it presents a 'Welcome ...' dialog. Click on 'New'. Enter any filename, click 'Save'. Click 'Cancel' on the next two dialogs. This puts you in the family view with no pre-existing data. I get the same results even if I use pre-existing data, but it's easier to bring up without pre-existing data.
Click on the yellow question mark in the icon bar near the top of the window. This brings up the help viewer.
In the left-hand pane of the help viewer, click on chapter titles starting at the top. Click at least one per second. At some point between about the seventh entry and the bottom of the list, you will see a dialog saying the application needs to close. The console will show an unhandled page fault. I'll attach console output.
The visible symptoms here look very similar to some old bugs seen in 1.3.12-1.3.15, 0.9.57-0.9.60, 0.9.50, 0.9.52, 0.9.39, and 0.9.37. Bug number 25873 is a good example.
