At random times when i go to post a tweet on twitter or reply to someone else's message, firefox crashes

Every time the crash occurs this message appears in the error log startxfce4.log

?[11639] ###!!! ABORT: Aborting on channel error.: file /build/buildd/firefox-32.0.3+build1/ipc/glue/MessageChannel.cpp, line 1532 [11639] ###!!! ABORT: Aborting on channel error.: file /build/buildd/firefox-32.0.3+build1/ipc/glue/MessageChannel.cpp, line 1532

i've tried the following

Starting firefox in safe mode Creating a new test profile

none of the above have helped, and these crashes occurred after the upgrade to

32.0.3+build1-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 on 25th sept, i have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling firefox

using sudo apt-get purge firefox && apt-get install firefox

this has not helped either.

HI shadowwraith, If you have them, can you please provide the crash ids of the crashes for further investigation?

A new profile in the new installation was also tried as well? (sanity check on my part)


  1. Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
  2. Copy the 5 most recent Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste that into the "Post a Reply" box. (Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the ID's. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like)

Thank you.

That looks like a problem with Hunspell dictionaries.

You can read through this bug report to see if that gives any clues of what you can try:

  • bug 983817 - [x86 Linux Ubuntu packages] crashes during spellchecker initialization (various textfield/textarea interactions/message compose) due to compiler bug using a 32-bit read for a read from an array of unsigned short

well there's certainly a lot of talk about it, but as of yet no solution or fix.

Also the fact i use the en_gb (provided by myspell_en-gb) dictionary and not en_us (hunspell_en-us), can't even remove hunspell due to dependencies.
