| + | ===== Firefox won't open: another instance is running or similar errors ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | This happens in two cases: | ||
| + | |||
| + | == 1. You have firefox open in workstation A, and you try yo open it in workstation B == | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Solution**: It's advisable to close it in workstation A first. Each instance of firefox will write in the | ||
| + | same profile folder that might cause problems. To save your work you might want to use the [[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/session-manager/|session-manager extension]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | == 2. Your machine shut down abruptly or lost connection with the fileserver before firefox released the profile lock == | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Solution**: remove the profile lock using this simple one-liner. | ||
| + | |||
| + | :!:**OBS**:!:: make sure you **DO NOT** have firefox already running on some other machine or you will cause severe damage to your firefox setup!! | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code bash>find ~/.mozilla/firefox/ -iname '.parentlock' -exec rm {} \;</code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | And try to restart firefox again. | ||
