nautilus crashed with SIGSEGV in g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__OBJECT(), When iphone 3GS pugged in, infinite loop attempting to opening file manager that say "starting file manager."

[Chamila Mihiripenna]

Binary package hint: nautilus

Happened
When I plug in iphone 3GS I gets stuck in an infinite loop attempting to opening windows that say "starting file manager." The windows don't ever open, but the longer the loop goes, the more that fill up the task bar. After the iphone is unplugged, the "windows" in the task bar go away, one by one.

Expected
Identify the iPhone in file manager

Thanks for the report, is this reproducible on Maverick?

[Chamila Mihiripenna (chamila-mihiripenna)]

This defect is reproducible in the latest version of ubuntu 10.10

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

could you get a new backtrace of the crash? thanks.

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

We'd like to figure out what's causing this bug for you, but we haven't heard back from you in a while. Could you please provide the requested information? Thanks

Hi Omer,
As described in the bug description, this issue happens when I plug in iphone 3GS to the USB port. I gets stuck in an infinite loop attempting to opening window that say "starting file manager." The window don't ever open, but the longer the loop goes, the more that fill up the task bar. After the iphone is unplugged, the "window" in the task bar go away, one by one.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
I'm also affected by this bug. I posted my report on another bug wich seems related : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/580177/comments/3, Bug #580177.
My stacktrace is very similar.
I considered reporting here as the other bug isn't active since may (and is probably a duplicate, as bug #657351)

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 32bits with the latest updates.

The bug occurs when i plug in my 1st gen Iphone. Bug buddy is launched, unable to make a useful bug report, i close it, Nautilus is relauched, recrash, etc... until unplugging my iphone.

[Maxime R. (max.r)]

Ho, and before upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10, I had the exact same behaviour : an infinite loop of "starting file manager" filling up the task bar. I think the crash is handled differently but the bug remains.

[Chamila Mihiripenna (chamila-mihiripenna)]

can someone pls attend to this. Coz, I'm not able to use ubuntu until this issue is fixed. Since i normally plug in iphone to the laptop when i come home from work to charge the iphone. I'm not able to do that due to this issue. So it force me to booth on windows 7.

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

Chamila, could you boot Ubuntu-10.10 from a USB/CD and then plug-in your iPhone and see if the problem happens in that case too

[Chamila Mihiripenna (chamila-mihiripenna)]

Hi Omer,

Sorry for the delayed reply. I tried it with the ubuntu 10.10 live CD, the issue still there.

I have the same problem in Natty Narwhal (when I logging into Classic Ubuntu session, not in Unity). I attached syslog (it contains a lot of messages about segfaults in nautilus) and .crash files.
