Description (last modified by bonefish)

I have WebPositive installed from its first release, has always worked good. But from 15 minutes, when i launch it (on my system nothing is changed) after few second causes an app server crash. In this time, before that crash appears, i have noticed that WebPositive has changed fonts on his interface.. After that crash i do a CTRL+ALT+CANC that bring me again to Desktop, and Tracker and Deskbar seem disappeared, but inside task manager are present. At this point i have to restart Haiku. WebPositive version r 586, no newer webkit used. Haiku Hrev44295.

Screenshot of app server crash attached.

That's actually an app_server crash.

Yes, I wasn't saying there isn't a bug, merely categorizing it correctly. In any case, the screenshot in its current form is useless, at least the output of typing 'bt' at the prompt would be needed to begin troubleshooting.

Thanks! This looks like memory corruption. If the back trace usually looks like this, it's most probably font related. Did you install a new font lately? Or changed the default fonts used in either WebPositive or the system? Or does it happen with a specific web site?

What exactly do you mean by "i have noticed that WebPositive has changed fonts on his interface"?

Hi, four days ago i have added "Colibri" font inside /boot/common/data/fonts but i use this font only with StyledEdit, WonderBrush and ThinkFree. Is not used in WebPositive. But in anyway i will try to remove it and i will see if app_server crash again.

On every website i have noticed that WebPositive uses different fonts from default fonts. In WebPositive preferences i have no changed fonts.

Oops.. Obviously is "Calibri" (from Windows 7) not "Colibri"! :-)

Ok: When i use "Calibri" ttf font inside WoderBrush, most of the time i got an KDL.. So Calibri font is the guilty of KDL.

This issue is no longer present for me, on the latest nightly builds.
