Using KineticJS in Firefox causes memory leak (page works good in all other browsers, including Firefox Beta for Android)

Hi,
You can visit http://brandy.pararuk.com and see just 15 flying comets animated with KineticJS library.
When I run it (viewing Windows Task Manager) I see that firefox.exe consumes 100Mb of memory every second up to full avaliable memory and hangs on Windows.
I've tested this page also on desktop with: Chrome, Safari, IE9 and on my Android tablet with: Firefox Beta, Chrome and Android browser - page works good everywhere, except of desktop Firefox.
Thank you for help.

Did you try to disable extensions like Firebug?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Need help troubleshooting problem: Flash hangs after using Firefox (on mac) back button - works fine on all other browsers

to reproduce:
1. click on a flash button that takes you to a new html page
2. hit the back button on browser
3. flash button hangs
I've included a test page as an example below.
the bug is specific to having used the flash button and is specific to the Mac version of firefox. The PC version seems to work fine.

What is the address of the first page? The only thing that link you posted in your information was the page that says, "now hit the back button and see if flash hangs after clicking on the flash button".

Firefox is displaying unreadable characters when visiting some websites like digg. The sites work fine in all other browsers. I've tried all encoding options in firefox.

Firefox is displaying unreadable characters when visiting some websites like digg. The sites work fine in all other browsers. I've tried all encoding options in firefox.

This issue can be caused by an old bitmap version of the Helvetica or Geneva font or (bitmap) fonts that Firefox can't display in that size.
Firefox can't display some old bitmap fonts in a larger size and displays gibberish instead.
You can test that by zooming out (View > Zoom > Zoom Out, Ctrl -) to make the text smaller.
Uninstall (remove) all variants of that not working font to make Firefox use another font or see if you can find a True type version that doesn't show the problem.

Website page with jquery datepicker does not calculate dates while other pages without datepicker and all other browsers do their job

I wrote two mobile pages with dreamweaver cs5.5 and jquery. Both do online calculations. Both appear and accept input. One page using jquery datepicker does not calculate. Solely in Firefox. IE9, Safari, Chrome display correct results. Debuggers show no error. Firebug seems telling me that Firefox does not get a result from datepicker function.

Thanks. But did not help. I had done this several times before, reload, clear cache, disable extensions etc. Always used standard theme. I tried the same on two different machines, with next to last version and after having installed the latest version. In the debugger I can see that variables "zeit1" (jquery datepicker) were not filled with the datepicking results, while in all other browsers zeitX shows the current date and the app shows the results that are expected. Given that another comparable app - only without date and datepicker functions - works in Firefox I think one should explore why solely datepicker - or the function using datepicker - does not show results solely in Firefox on desktop (no mobile device with Firefox on hand) . I indeed believe that there is a mistake in my code which is detected only by Firefox (10.0.2 at the present time, with Win7 64bit - had the problem with 3.6... on another machine). Given that you could run the app with results on your machine: could it be the context of locale/culture (here: de)?
Kind regards

Hi my website it working fine on all other browsers but on firefox it is not displaying properly. I was hoping to send a screenshot to see if anyone had any ideas why this might be happening.

Pages that load in all other browsers do not load in Safari

Our Web application uses HTTPS and a Thawte-issued 256-bit AES SSL certificate. In IE, Firefox, and Chrome, the pages of our Web application load absolutely fine. In Safari 4.0.5, the pages do not load in the browser. When looking at the source for the page, there absolutely is content there, but appears to be cut off after a certain number of lines. I've tried a couple of pages, and there doesn't seem to be anything incorrect about the HTML at the line directly after the last one that Safari was able to pull back.
I read in some forums that this may have to do with content chunking and/or variable content lengths. I read in others that it may have to do with serving images from non-HTTPS servers while using an HTTPS connection. I think the former sounds more likely.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? This is not the known "page doesn't load in Safari, but then does when I access it in another browser" issue. It doesn't matter how many times I successfully access the pages in other browsers. They are never rendered in Safari.
Does anyone know how to control the behavior of Safari (or even of Apache HTTP Server 2.0) when it comes to responses of variable content lengths and/or response chunking? Or am I completely off the mark?
Thanks,
Mike

It turns out that Apache's mod_jk.log, which is used to store the output of communications between Apache and Tomcat, had become full. Once it reaches 2 GB, Apache can't write to it anymore. Once we stopped Apache, stopped Tomcat, rotated out that mod_jk.log, and restarted both Apache and Tomcat, our Web application started working again in both Safari and much more reliably in Chrome.

I have loaded the new Flash version into Firfox several times, but none of my sites recognize it when using Firefox. It works fine on all other browsers, but I would prefer to use Firfox if this problem can be solved.

I use Firefox 4.0.1 on a Mac running Os X10.5.8. When I try to run Facebook or other sites that are heavy users of Flash I get a message that the new version of Flash must be loaded. I have loaded the latest version several times, but still get the message and these sites will not run on Firefox. The sites run fine with Safari or Chrome but I prefer to use Firefox if it can be made to run these sites. Thank you for any suggestions you have to help fix this problem.

Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
2. Select to "Options
3. Select "Applications"
4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

Uploading files containing swedish letter åäö gets ecoding corrupted in firefox for mac. Same features works fine in all other browsers. Is this a bug in firefox for mac?

When uploading a file containing swedish letter å, ä or ö the file name is gets corupted in the filename. There are som encoding issues just for the mac version, since the file name is uploaded correctly in all other browsers on mac and all browsers in windows.

What form does this corruption take? According to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695995 the difference is decomposed vs precomposed Unicode forms, but that should not actually affect any Unicode-complian software. If there's a site that shows a problem here, can you point me to it?

Why are certain Gmail messages and conversations not appearing in Firefox 4 (I get the left sidebar, top bar, but message fails to appear), but functions fine in all other browsers?

Certain messages in Gmail are not displaying properly (http://img607.imageshack.us/i/screenshot20110228at101.png/). These messages appear properly in all other browsers (including previous versions of Firefox), and also appear when I disable all labs. Disabling Right Side Chat labs appears to enable display of the message, but destroys all formatting (page stretches to the right beyond viewable resolutions, line breaks disappear), and so on.

Thank you for your prompt email.
I have thoroughly checked and double-checked all the factors below.
On two different computers. Unfortunately, nothing has helped yet.
I can assure you that each item listed below has been checked several times during all my searching today and ALSO again right now.
There are no problems with Plugins, Themes or Extensions found. No permissions blocked, No media blocked images, No third-party permissions blocked. No images blocked from any domains. And images are 'Enabled'. There are no exceptions in place to the loading images. No exclusions in my security software settings.
AND I have checked all of this on a second computer that is also having this same problem. That person is using a different security software than I am but they are having the same problem with images in only their Gmail account also - but NOT when using IE9. Only when signing in through Firefox. And we both think it started yesterday or this morning.
That pc is still on Firefox version 12.0. I updated earlier today to version 13.0 but the problem is still ongoing for both of us.
Any further help will be greatly appreciated.
I have to get something accomplished. WAY behind now.
Thank you,

JSF: partial page rendering is causing memory leak leading to outofmemory

JDeveloper 10.1.3.2.0
JDK: 1.6.0_06
Operating System: Windows XP.
I test my application for memory leaks. For that purpose, I use jconsole to monitor java heap space. I have an edit page that has two dependent list components. One displays all countries and the other displays cities of the selected country.
I noticed java heap space keeps growing as I change country from country list.
I run garbage collection and memory usage does not go down. If I keep changing the province for 5 minutes, then I hit a java heap space outofmemory exception.
To narrow down the problem, I removed the second city component and the problem still exists.
To narrow it down further, I removed autosubmit attribute from the country component and then memory usage stopped increasing as I change country.
country/city partial page rendering is just an example. I am able to reproduce the same problem on every page where i use partial page rendering. My conclusion is PPR is causing memory leak or at least the autosubmit attribute.
This is really bad. Anyone out there experienced same issue. Any help/advice is highly appreciated !!
Thanks

Samsam,
I haven't seen this problem myself, no.
To clarify - are you seeing this behaviour when running your app in JDeveloper, or when running in an application server? If in JDeveloper, a copuple of suggestions:
* (may not matter, but...) It's not supported to run JDev 10g with JDK 6
* have you tried the [url http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/masterj2ee/j2ee_wk11.html]memory profiler

Calling SetLocalTime in C# causes Memory Leak (WEC7)

Hello,
I use SetLocalTime() in C#. Everything works well if I start explorer.exe and my application. But if I don't start explorer.exe at system start. SetLocalTime() causes memory leak in my application. I call the function frequently every hour.
public static bool SetzeLokalZeit(SYSTEMDATETIME lpSystemTime)
#if DEADLOCKDETECT
using (DdMonitor.Lock(MyTimeLock, "MyTimeLock#1"))
#else
lock (MyTimeLock)
#endif
bool ret = false; // no Success
try
GLB.LogFile.MyWrite("SetLocalTime");
SYSTEMDATETIME loc = new SYSTEMDATETIME();
loc.wYear = lpSystemTime.wYear;
loc.wMonth = lpSystemTime.wMonth;
loc.wDayOfWeek = lpSystemTime.wDayOfWeek;
loc.wDay = lpSystemTime.wDay;
loc.wHour = lpSystemTime.wHour;
loc.wMinute = lpSystemTime.wMinute;
loc.wSecond = lpSystemTime.wSecond;
loc.wMilliseconds = lpSystemTime.wMilliseconds;
ret = SetLocalTime(ref loc);
if (!ret) // no Success
int err = Marshal.GetLastWin32Error();
if (err > 0)
GLB.LogFile.MyWrite("ERROR CODE:" + err.ToString());
else ret = true;
catch (Exception ex)
GLB.LogFile.MyWrite("000023 Exception" + ex.Message);
finally
GLB.LogFile.MyWrite("SetLocalTime Ende");
return ret;
Has someone an idea what's the problem?
Best regards,
Andreas

Hello,
Here the answers to the questions:
1. Does the SetLocalTime function succeed?
Calling SetLocalTime doesn't cause an exception an the local time is set correctly.
2. Do you still get the memory leak if you remove all other calls?
Yes. I have removed any other code, but I also get the memory leak.
3. Does the memory leak also occur when you do this from native code?
I have not tried it yet. But I will still make it...
[DllImport("coredll.dll")]
private static extern void GetLocalTime(ref SYSTEMDATETIME lpSystemTime);
[DllImport("coredll.dll", SetLastError = true)]
private static extern bool SetLocalTime(ref SYSTEMDATETIME lpSystemTime);
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct SYSTEMDATETIME
public ushort wYear;
public ushort wMonth;
public ushort wDayOfWeek;
public ushort wDay;
public ushort wHour;
public ushort wMinute;
public ushort wSecond;
public ushort wMilliseconds;
public static bool Pub_SetLocalTime(SYSTEMDATETIME lpSystemTime)
lock (MyTimeLock)
bool ret = false; // no Success
try
loc_set.wYear = lpSystemTime.wYear;
loc_set.wMonth = lpSystemTime.wMonth;
loc_set.wDayOfWeek = lpSystemTime.wDayOfWeek;
loc_set.wDay = lpSystemTime.wDay;
loc_set.wHour = lpSystemTime.wHour;
loc_set.wMinute = lpSystemTime.wMinute;
loc_set.wSecond = lpSystemTime.wSecond;
loc_set.wMilliseconds = lpSystemTime.wMilliseconds;
ret = SetLocalTime(ref loc_set);
if (!ret) // no Success
int err = Marshal.GetLastWin32Error();
if (err > 0)
MessageBox.Show("Win32 Error:", err.ToString());
else ret = true;
catch (Exception ex)
MessageBox.Show("SetLocalTime,Exception:", ex.ToString());
finally
return ret;

I can not get Firefox to play music backgrounds on pages in browsers it works in IE and other browsers but not firefox, what HTML or Jave script do I need too use to make them work?

I'm having a problem with firefox playing background music on some sites, it works with IE and other browsers but not with fire fox, what html or java script do I need to add to the pages so that they play the music?
I develop my pages in Front Page and I know that the music only works in IE, so if someone can tell me how to correct this problem as it is important as I use fire fox as my main browser.
I thank you in advance

If a website uses BGSOUND then it will only work in IE.
BGSOUND is not compatible with other browsers like Firefox.

Can Java program cause memory leak?

Can Java program cause memory leak or memory crash? I don't mean any memory overflow related exceptions. I mean something like core dump in UNIX or error reports in Windows XP.
If it can really happen, in what circumstances? I raise such a question because our J2EE based system had really caused memory leak in Windows XP systems, but so far we still fail to troubleshoot the problem.

Your code may leak memory. There are many, many, many reasons this could be. All of them represent bugs in your code.
You should get a profiler to identify the problem spots of your code.
You spoke of a memory crash as well. The VM may crash with some bug in the VM, or a bug in native code but that is not relevent to your problem. A memory leak is a problem in your code.

Firefox ver. 3.6 stopped loading pages of any kind. Even Google or Facebook! Maybe it's because I tried to download a program that didn't even open up. All other browsers work normally.

My Firefox ver. 3.6 stopped loading pages of any kind. Even Google or Facebook! I don't know how this happened. May it is because I tried to download a program that didn't even open up.... But I don't know how to make it work. All other browsers work normally, and I'm scanning for viruses even though my anti-virus did not warn me of anything... I tried to download a keygen and this is what happened. I can't figure out what it is. Not a connection problem. I even tried to uninstall an re-install firefox, but still nothing worked.

Your issue may be caused by Malware. You can run and update the following '''free''' anti virus software:
1. Malwarebytes (Free version) - http://www.malwarebytes.org
2. Spybot Search & Destroy - http://www.safer-networking.org
3.Spyware Terminator - http://www.spywareterminator.com
In addition, there are a number of forums you can use to help get rid of your infection. These include:
