[Bug 198195] Re: Apport cannot start firefox: "Firefox is already running...."
This doesn't happen with any other browser; apport itself just calls "firefox -new-window URL", I don't see anything wrong with that. Thus I close the apport task and leave the firefox task. ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- Apport cannot start firefox: "Firefox is already running" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

FIXED MINE: ~$ locate firefox | grep bin /usr/bin/firefox /usr/bin/firefox-3.0 /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/bin/firefox-3.0 -safe-mode [FAILED - Already running but not responding] [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/bin/firefox-3.0 -ProfileManager *) Delete DEFAULT profile *) Create New Profile *) Launch Firefox 3 [WORKED] Exited and retried from KDE > Internet > Firefox 3.0 [WORKED although complained I had a crashed session?] Exited and retried again.

[Bug 198195] Re: Apport cannot start firefox: "Firefox is already running...."
I get this same error. I was just about to file a report and saw this bug. I have Firefox open, a kernel upgrade failed, then apport failed to send the bug report because I already had Firefox open! -- Apport cannot start firefox: "Firefox is already running" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
