I have my own RCP application, built with Eclipse Helios, for multiple platforms. The problem happens for me when I test the application build for Linux x86-gtk. Platform: Kubuntu 13.10 (virtualbox machine), JRE: 1.6u45. I get the crash while I use the preference pages and hit the OK button. No .log is found in workspace/.metadata, just the hs_err_pidxxxx.log in the app install directory.
The Solaris sparc/intel and win32/64 builds of the app work fine in Solaris, and so does the linuxx86_64 when tested on CentOS 6.3. The GTK workaround (System Settings/Application Appearance/GTK/Gtk2 theme Raleigh) works for my application, after a reboot of the VM. But I do not like this as the look and feel is somewhat old fashioned and not in line with the rest of the system. However, and this is my contribution to this discussion, when I run the application from the command line as root, with sudo <myapp>, the problem disappears (has anybody tried?). I then thought that it may have been caused by some missing file access permissions and temporarily gave full access to the whole workspace directory but the problem reappeared, so it is not connected to permissions on the workspace. Also for me the hs_errxxx.pid point to libgobject-2.0.s0.0+0x16bfe __float128+0x1e -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1241101 Title: Java crash in libglib-2.0 after upgrade from 13.04 to 13.10 Status in Eclipse: Confirmed Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “gtk+2.0” package in Suse: New Bug description: Running smartgit 4.6.4 on 13.10 64 bits.
