Palemoon crashes when opening new tab

Post by Hawqn » 2016-12-15, 06:53

Since update from 26.x to 27.x I observer crashes when opening new tab. It happens rarely (few times per day) and is hard to reproduce (just spend few minutes opening new tabs and of course it worked ok). After hitting ctrl+t browser window disappears and generic windows message is shown about application crash. It happens on all computers I'm using and all of them are running 64 bit Palemoon 27.0.2 on Windows 7 64 bit. Tried working on a clean profile with no addons for one day and it was crashing as well. I also don't think its related to web page contents beacuse after restarting Palemoon full session is restored to exact same state (minus new tab), and opening new tab works just fine.

Please include crash details when reporting crashes.

There are no details except what I wrote in my post above. Palemoon just disappears without any error on console. Crashes are totally random and I'm unable to reproduce them manually to catch some debugging output. The only visible report is system window which says: "Palemoon has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem".

By "crash details," I believe Moonchild is referring to the "If you get application crashes" recommendation in this post:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=49

There is a link in that post to a program called AppCrashView that might be able to provide further details on why Pale Moon has crashed.

Whatever was the reason it was fixed in 27.0.3 and now tab opening crashes are completly gone.
