Chrome "Aw, Snap!" message at Twitter

[MicahCarrick]

Is anybody else having the "Aw, Snap" error loading twitter.com in Chrome using Fedora 15?

I've tried both the stable version 11.0.696.57 and dev version 12.0.742.12 dev of Chrome with the same problem. Both were using new, clean profiles with no extensions.

iv'e always got Facebook opened, and as soon as i type www.twitter.com only thing that crashes is the twitter page

That's crazy. For me it crashes both Twitter and Facebook. Sometimes, it might crash various other tabs.

Here is my version of Google Chrome:

Google Chrome	12.0.742.16 (Official Build 83695) dev
WebKit	534.30 (branches/chromium/742@85351)
V8	3.2.10.5
Flash	10.3 r181
User Agent	Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/12.0.742.16 Safari/534.30
Command Line	 /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome --flag-switches-begin --flag-switches-end

o
If you run Google chrome as root (sudo google-chrome for me) then it will not crash. o.O

[tox]

mines the same version

An unsafe workaround is run Google Chrome as root. That works for me.

Log file of opening homepage (encrypted.google.com) and then going straight to twitter is located at: http://pastebin.com/77LjHXCr

I will post all this on the Google Chrome dev bug reporter.

interesting, could it be that Google chrome is installing in the wrong Dir

i get the same issue with Chromium

It's possible. Maybe somehow it doesn't have permission to write something that Twitter wants to write to. Like, maybe it wants to write Geolocation data, but it can't so it just crashes. Just a thought here

ok looks like there working on that in Preferences > Under The Hood > Content Settings > Location

[pivotraze]

Well, I think that Twitter likes to take your Geolocation, but I am not 100% sure.

i think it does

[pivotraze]

Yeah. So that might be the problem here. I don't know if it has to do with permission errors? I'm going to try and change permissions on the whole chrome directory.
