Description Timothy Brownawell 2006-08-16 20:11:16 UTC 
What were you doing when the application crashed?
Saving a blank new file.
^s -> "folder /tmp/something does not exist", and the save as dialog had a blank folder select box (didn't look what was in the dropdown)
type "~/documents/", hit enter -> pauses, probably waiting for disk
click cancel -> still waiting, then after a bit the crash dialog comes up

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.

It seems a crash in the file chooser so I'm going to move this bug to gtk+.

The steps to reproduce the crash are not very clear to me. In particular it is  not clear to me how you got the "folder /tmp/something does not exist" message.

Unfortunately, that stack trace is not very useful in determining the cause of the crash. Can you get us one with debugging symbols? Please see http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to do so.

steps to reproduce:

$ mkdir /tmp/foo
$ touch /tmp/foo/bar
$ gedit /tmp/foo/bar &

<wait for gedit window to open>
[whether you close the "bar" tab here doesn't matter]

$ rm -r /tmp/foo

<In gedit window, ^n ^s to open and save a new file>
   "The folder contents could not be displayed"
   "error accessing 'file:///tmp/foo': File not found"
<click "ok">
[the "save in folder" bar is blank, leave it like that]
<type *anything* in the "name" field (ex: foo, /tmp/foo, ~/bar, ~/bar/) >
<press enter or click "save">
**crash**

Thanks for the great reply.
I can reproduce the crash now.

On the stack trace I get:

Gtk-ERROR **: file gtkfilechooserdefault.c: line 7570 (gtk_file_chooser_default_should_respond): assertion failed: (path != NULL)


Here a stacktrace with all the debugging symbols (using gedit and gtk+ from CVS HEAD):

This seems to happen because:
 1. gedit sets a current folder (which starts an async operation to verify whether the folder exists)
 2. Meanwhile gtk_file_chooser_default_map() is called and notices that a current folder verification is in progress (usually the map function sets the current folder to the current working directory if there's no folder given to display)
 3. The operation started in 1) is done, and the folder doesn't exist.  The file chooser appears without a current folder and pressing save causes the assert to be triggered.


One solution might be to have update_current_folder_get_info_cb() set the current folder to the current working directory if the folder which we were requested to set doesn't exist and if no current folder is currently set.  Is this a nice solution?  (It does sound reasonable to me and I tried it locally, and it fixes the problem).
