Hi!
I was using Opera 45.x with no problem until they forced update by disabling the vpn.Opera 50 (opera-stable_50.0.2762.67_amd64 .rpm) is not working for me.
It crashes by SIGSEGV when I trying to save picture or page. Save dialog activates, but both Cancel and Save buttons cause crash. By the way, dialog is shown regardless of option settings - ask or not.That's what is prints to console:
Gtk-Message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.
Discarded=1OS:
Mageia 5 x64, KDE 4.14.35.Also flash don't work, but looks like there is already a lot of threads about it on this forum.

@jimunderscorep said in Opera crashes when trying to save file or page.:
Try setting a different gtk theme and check if it still does the same.
Can you explain that for me? About - KDE states that it's 4.14.35. I use default Air theme.
Newest Opera 52 crashes on attempt to save an image too.

Hi, i would try in : Settings > Basic
Uncheck Ask where to save each file before downloading. ( To avoid dialog box )
Make sure of proper path to /home/user/Downloads in above box.
Good luck !
Thanks for the response.
I have that checkbox unchecked.
But ... the right click popup menu on image have only "Save image as..." menu item, which ignores the setting.
It's should change into something like "Save to Default" or just "Save image".I found the way around it, but it's awkward: Use "Copy Image" menu item, then paste the image into KolourPaint, for example, and save it.
P.S.
Opening image into new tab don't help either - Ctrl-S shortcut produces the file dialog and then crash. It ignores the setting again.

Hi, sorry i misunderstood what you meant, i thought you were trying to download ,,,
So the dialog box you are getting after save or save as is from your linux distro ... not from opera.
I would try with other browser to check if problem remain.
If problem remain, make sure you have the proper package to open that type of file.

Firefox 52.6.0 (current for distro) and earlier have absolutely no problems while saving any files.
Opera 45.X also had no problems with saving files.
KDE cannot force the creation of file location dialog.
Program can create file and write into it without any GUI, only limit is file system permissions. (man creat, open, write, close)
Right click menus are also generated by browser.Is there debug version of Opera rpm officially available? Or even better full source code officially available?

From wiki : sigsegv
In computing, a segmentation fault (often shortened to segfault) or access violation is a fault, or failure condition, raised by hardware with memory protection, notifying an operating system (OS) the software has attempted to access a restricted area of memory (a memory access violation). On standard x86 computers, this is a form of general protection fault. The OS kernel will, in response, usually perform some corrective action, generally passing the fault on to the offending process by sending the process a signal. Processes can in some cases install a custom signal handler, allowing them to recover on their own,[1] but otherwise the OS default signal handler is used, generally causing abnormal termination of the process (a program crash), and sometimes a core dump.
So not opera.
So if you want to investigate a little more, reboot pc, open terminal, type opera, try to save ( will cause crash output in terminal screen )
and post crash outputYou wrote : Or even better full source code officially available?
Like the one from opera main page under download section > Prefer the RPM package? Download it here.

I'm aware what SIGSEGV is, I caused a lot of them before I learned how to manage pointers right.
I tried to use gdb to find where is crashes, but rpm contains non-debug version and symbols are stripped.
Link you provided leads to compiled rpm, not the debug rpm, or even better source rpm.Console output:

If that doesn't work. i would try the forum of your distro.
Good luck !

I haven't followed this thread - what desktop are you using? I run Mageia, but I always use KDE.
KDE, "about" states that version is 4.14.35

@sgunhouse said in Opera crashes when trying to save file or page.:
Does the directory listed as your downloads directory in Settings actually exist? And is it owned by your user account?
Yes. Yes.
Oops! Crash!
Looks like I typed in the path earlier, and now I tried to click "Change" to get a "Download location" dialog box, and, trumpets, opera crashed few seconds after I clicked "Cancel".
It looks like opera crashes either instantly or in 3-5 seconds after closing "Save As" dialog box, both "Save" and "Cancel" cause the crash.
During typing this post I used Ctrl-S shortkey in Firefox several times to lookup button and dialog labels and had no problems with it.
