Webhelper: geany crashes when I turn on web inspector
I use geany with webhelper on debian 8.3 x 32. On my previous PC (also with debian 8) I had the same problem but it disappeared after update of debian, geany and plugins. Now I have new laptop with up-to-date debian and with the same problem. I have geany ver.1.26 and webhelper ver. 1.26+dfsg-1. No difference which site or local html file I use, webhelper itself works great. But when I press web inspector button or choose 'inspect element' from right-click menu, geany immediately crashes. If I start geany from terminal. after the crash I see:
a@b:~$ geany Segmentation fault a@b:~$
Geany is the best lightweight IDE ever and I hope You'll help me to solve the problem. TY in advance!
@xomrk can you try something like:
$ gdb --args geany -v
And paste the output here. For more info see here. If your distro has a debug package, installing that first would make the paste more useful.
Here is the output after 'run' command on geany load (I didn't pressed web inspector yet):

@xomrk does it give any more output if at GDB console when it sends SIGSEGV, if you type bt, like:

FWIW, I can't reproduce on my Debian Unstable x86-64.
Also, to run GDB more directly, you can do gdb -ex run --args geany -v.
Anyway… looks very odd. Could you try and run under Valgrind? it looks like a memory corruption, so maybe Valgrind could help. It's fairly slow to run anything under Valgrind, but use G_DEBUG="gc-friendly:resident-modules" G_SLICE="always-malloc" valgrind geany -v.
Also, you might want to install Geany's, Geany-Plugins' and WebKitGTK's (beware, there are many WebKitGTKs, it's libwebkitgtk-1.0-0-dbg) debugging symbols (-dbg packages) to see more meaningful traces with GDB and Valgrind.
This said, I doubt it's actually WebHelper's fault. I could be wrong, but I doubt the plugin does anything odd enough to trigger something like that, and would rather imagine it's an obscure bug in libwebkitgtk going unnoticed because it's with the inspector.
If I get a chance I'll try and setup a 32 bits Jessie VM, but it might not be tonight.
TY guys! I installed xombrero (it is also based on WebKit) and had the same crash when pressed 'inspect element'. So, I googled the issue and understood that it is not WebHelper's fault. It is a rare problem of some linux x32 machines (mostly debian). Though I couldn't find the solution, You should feel free to remove this issue from here, because it is not concerned to wonderful geany and its plugins. Sorry and TY.
Well, after Midori browser installation Web inspector stopped crashing. Seems like some libraries were refreshed. May be it will help someone in the same situation.
i have same error, tested with debian wheeze, and then using mint 17 same with geany 1.29 git, installing midory does not solve the problem
@mckaygerhard Can you please run geany from inside gdb and provide a backtrace? That would help to figure out the reason I think (and whether the cause differs from above)
@frlan i dont remenber right now but do the most rapid : (using Debian testing in some time of the 2016 and geany 1.29-something)
if the info provided are not enough tell me how and i do it:
systemas@syslaptop04 ~ $ gdb geany

FROM DEBIAN: geany-plugins (1.32+dfsg-3) unstable; urgency=medium
- [67b34ed] Disable webkit-using plugins: markdown, webhelper webkitgtk-3.0 is not to be used as it is deprecated, but the port to webkit2gtk-4.0 isn't ready yet.
But some people reported works after some libs upgrading.. please there's some info?
seems solved with https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins/pull/746/commits/4039a13882f4b9e2127f6e7b018bdbdffe36e2a2 ??? https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins/commit/4039a13882f4b9e2127f6e7b018bdbdffe36e2a2
are relased a geany plugins with that support for new webkit?
Last release of Geany and Plugins was 1.35 in April 2019, so should be there.
@mckaygerhard are you asking about the bug this issue is about (Geany crashing with Webhelper plugin), or the status of the unrelated Markdown plugin changes to support newer webkit, to which you linked?
i asking for Geany crashing with Webhelper plugin (only when goin to debuggin tools).. are not solved or not? are available in lasted? where will be available if solved?
in the link commit 4039a13882f4b9e2127f6e7b018bdbdffe36e2a2 seems markdown plugin can work with newer webkit , so why webhelper cannot be take some importance and help?
please guys.. this plugins are so helpfully! but in almost all distributions are not working!
@mckaygerhard plugins are maintained by volunteers, in their own time. Its likely that they simply don't have the time, better to provide a pull request or get somebody to do it for you if you need it so bad.
@mckaygerhard in #677 was a PR to update Webhelper and Markdown plugins' Webkit, I took the changes from it in #746 and it got merged. #677 was merged but then reverted because the Webhelper changes didn't get approved/reviewed. So AFAICT support for newer Webkit in Webhelper plugin isn't done, or if it was, was done separately from those PRs.
I assigned @b4n, I'm sure he knows what's up.
thanks @codebrainz i hope @b4n have enought time to contribute adn made a good job! we all waith for ... triying to follow comments in PR #677 i get lost in the sea of comments..

The latest Geany for windows is 1.37.1 to fix a crash in 1.37.0, so maybe .....
Also which windows?
@elextr
Windows 7 64-bit. Yes, also tried it first with the latest 1.37.1 and it crashes.
I thought this will be solved when the installer message stated to use exactly the same version so then I used 1.37.0.
Can you run under gdb as you did above and get a backtrace bt when it returns to gdb after the crash. Note you may need to type return a few times to get it all.
