GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 590420
Epiphany crashed when trying to connect to a URL
Last modified: 2009-07-31 22:34:12 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1. The problem is that this cannot be reproduced, but I am running epiphany-2.27.5 under gdb always as I usually get crashes like this, I mean, just after starting to connect to a web 2. 3. Stack trace:
+ Trace 216737
Other information: Seems that libsoup is involved, I have libsoup-2.27.5 and webkit-1.1.11 Regards
This is not a crash. The process gets a SIGPIPE when it tries to write to a socket that the remote server has disconnected, and so gdb stops there. But libsoup handles SIGPIPE correctly, so if you typed "continue", the program would keep going. You should type "handle SIGPIPE nostop noprint" at the gdb prompt before running the program, and then gdb will ignore the SIGPIPEs too.
Ups, sorry a lot and thanks for the explanation
