Weird Okular/KDE error - thousand procs spawned

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hello all:
I'm trying to troubleshoot a strange and repeatable error and not sure
where to log the bug report.

I subscribe to Linux Journal and download their PDF. The DLJ230.pdf
opens in the Okular PDF reader from Konqueror.  If I scroll down to
the ad for some colo site (www.ovh.com) and click the right side of
the page, I immediately start getting hundreds of alerts on the
desktop.

These all say:
  www.ovh.com contacted. Waiting for reply...
  Source: http://www.ovh.com/us/index.html

They appear at the rate of about one per second.

A "ps -ef" shows hundreds of new processes such as:

kwan     27155 24731  0 18:21 ?        00:00:00 kdeinit4: kio_http
[kdeinit] http local:/tmp/ksocket-kwan/klauncherT24732.s
kwan     27169 24731  1 18:21 ?        00:00:00 kdeinit4: kio_http
[kdeinit] http local:/tmp/ksocket-kwan/klauncherT24732.s
kwan     27177 24731  1 18:21 ?        00:00:00 kdeinit4: kio_http
[kdeinit] http local:/tmp/ksocket-kwan/klauncherT24732.s
kwan     27184 24731  1 18:22 ?        00:00:00 kdeinit4: kio_http
[kdeinit] http local:/tmp/ksocket-kwan/klauncherT24732.


I let it run for a few minutes to see if it would time out but it just
keeps growing until I finally kill all the kio_http procs (killall
kio_http). It's reproducible on at least two CentOS 6.4 builds. Not
sure if it's an Okular bug or something else.
