Mysterious Galeon Crashes
by Tahir Hashmi 14 Jun '02

14 Jun '02

Hi! Folks, it's not very frequently that one sees Galeon crash (> 1.0) Try opening this URL: http://thekompany.com/products/blackadder/ and Galeon will die without a whimper as soon as the page stops loading. If you add this page to your bookmarks (I use the XBEL format), Galeon dies as soon as you click on the Bookmarks button on the main toolbar! I'd like to know for sure whether this is an isolated case. However, do save your bookmarks if you are trying the crash on bookmarking also if you don't want to trawl the bookmarks.xbel file. --- Tahir Hashmi (VSE, NCST) http://staff.ncst.ernet.in/tahir tahir AT ncst DOT ernet DOT in __________________________________ We, the rest of humanity, wish GNU luck and Godspeed _______________________________________________________ WIN a first class trip to Hawaii.

I wanted to submit a bug report but bugzilla.gnome.org haven't mailed me a password since morning! I can still reproduce the crash simply by visiting the site. I'll try an upgrade, anyway and since no one else seems to have that problem, I guess an upgrade might just help. --- Tahir Hashmi (VSE, NCST) http://staff.ncst.ernet.in/tahir tahir AT ncst DOT ernet DOT in __________________________________ We, the rest of humanity, wish GNU luck and Godspeed _______________________________________________________ WIN a first class trip to Hawaii.

Please make sure that ur mail client's column wrap is set to around 72. >and Galeon will die without a whimper as soon as the page stops loading. >If you add this page to your bookmarks (I use the XBEL format), Galeon >dies as soon as you click on the Bookmarks button on the main toolbar! Nope, It does not. I opened the site and added it to my bookmark, no probs. I also use XBEL format for bookmark. There were few problems with galeon's stability few days back but now it is stable. I use Galeon 1.2.3 which uses Mozila 1.0 as renderer. I think, my problem got solved because of Debian's fantastic upgrade facility. It keeps upgrading and bug fixing ur system. You should look for an upgrade for ur Galeon. -Dharmesh

Why dont u write small cgi-script with setuid bit set?, that acts as wrapper and runs command passed through a cgi-variable. You might as well want to make it a open source project. You can use htaccess for authentication OR write your own authentication code by way of cookies or cgi-variables. Amish. P.S. Make sure you dont leave any security hole in script. sachin rase wrote: >but i want to execute through apache >is there any way to execute this way

Need Some Info

Hi, Would need some help to setup disclaimer note for our corporate email server at the end of every mail sent out. Currently sunning RH6.2 with sendmail 8.9.3. Upgradation to higher version would take little more time hence not feasible at this moment. Does any body have any idea how to move about it. Thanks in advance.
