2012-07-30 09:25:38 anonymous mouse description Since updating from 13 to 14, Firefox has been crashing randomly. I can not detect a pattern at all. In one case I had loaded profile three, and then clicked to the search bar, and started typing, before it crashed. In the case before that, same profile, I had loaded up three or four pages, and then it crashed. This has happened on three different profiles, with three different sets of addons and settings. Profile one has multiple addons installed, including NoScript, RequestPolicy, Brief (RSS reader), WebDeveloper Toolbar, Status-4-Evar and others. Profile two has few addons, NoScript, Zotero, Status-4-Evar, and a couple of others. Profile three has no addons, and all plugins are disabled, and is configured to start in Private Browsing mode by default. I do radically different browsing in the three profiles, and so the types of website are radically different. Each time it crashes, the Mozilla Crash Detector starts up, and I have generally been reporting the crashes. apport has loads more information, in loads more detail, after this: ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: firefox 14.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-41.94-generic 2.6.32.59+drm33.24 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-41-generic i686 Architecture: i386 BuildID: 20120713225625 Date: Mon Jul 30 10:10:01 2012 DefaultProfilePrefSources: prefs.js EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" - Release i386 (20091028.5) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_AU.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash Profile0BrokenPermissions: extensions/{db72cc3b-578c-43b2-8adb-b0a91803e9bf}/chrome.manifest (0400) extensions/{db72cc3b-578c-43b2-8adb-b0a91803e9bf}/chrome/spamcontrol.jar (0400) extensions/{db72cc3b-578c-43b2-8adb-b0a91803e9bf}/defaults/preferences/spamcontrol.js (0400) extensions/{db72cc3b-578c-43b2-8adb-b0a91803e9bf}/install.rdf (0400) Profile0PrefSources: prefs.js [Profile]/extensions/{8f8fe09b-0bd3-4470-bc1b-8cad42b8203a}/defaults/preferences/prefs.js [Profile]/extensions/linkwidget@clav.mozdev.org/defaults/preferences/linkwidget.js [Profile]/extensions/{45d8ff86-d909-11db-9705-005056c00008}/defaults/preferences/defaults.js Profile1PrefSources: prefs.js Profile2PrefErrors: Unexpected character 'e' before close parenthesis @ [Profile]/extensions/zotero@chnm.gmu.edu/defaults/preferences/zotero.js:11 Profile2PrefSources: prefs.js [Profile]/extensions/zoteroOpenOfficeIntegration@zotero.org/defaults/preferences/zoteroOpenOfficeIntegration.js Profile3PrefSources: prefs.js Profile4PrefSources: prefs.js SourcePackage: firefox Since updating from 13 to 14, Firefox has been crashing randomly.
