A problem with an x.0 version? I've been using FF from "source code" for years on Debian Linux, but this is the first time such an update is failing after the most recent update to v133.0, as illustrated in attached image. How can I now update to the fix for this problem, please?

Hello,

After a few days I noticed that the option "open with" on the downloads dialog is always grayed out (see the attached picture).

If I go on the settings and tell the browser to not ask and open directly the file, it opens without any problem... (actually it shows an advertisement saying it is an executable file, but when I dismiss it, it opens)

Here are my system setup: Nom: Firefox Version: 130.0.1 Identifiant de compilation: 20240913135723 ID de distribution: mozilla-deb Canal de mise à jour: release Agent utilisateur: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:130.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/130.0 Système d’exploitation: Linux 6.1.0-25-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.106-3 (2024-08-26) Thème du système d’exploitation: Breeze / Adwaita Binaire de l’application: /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin

Does anybody else is having this issue? Any ideas on how can I fix it?

Thanks in advance for all your help,

Best regards, Marc

Hello guys,

The trouble I ll present you might come a bit late, I've just never thought about asking on this forum (didn't even know that it exists lol) and I spent a lot time on tutorials trying to find the solution... lol 😩

My situation : I have a laptop with debian 12 stable. Early July, I updated my apps, Firefox 128 has just been released. Since the Firefox 128 update, I can no longer execute Firefox, I always get the pop up message :

Failed to execute child process (no such file or directory)

I've tried many times to uninstall & reinstall, purge & reinstall. Still the same "failed to execute... " message. all the subsequent updates (128.X and 129.X) haven't solved this problem...

On the other hand, Firefox ESR 128 works like a charm.

Is anyone in the same situation as me ? 😕

Wishing you a nice day :)

I woke up this morning to my home directory having been remounted as read-only (it has its own dedicated hard drive at /dev/sdd1). I ran e2fsck and things looked good, so I restarted and things were fine again.

However, whenever I open Firefox, it hangs for about 1 full minute before it goes haywire and renders the entire system essentially unusable since being able to access my home directory is vital. The following is visible in dmesg:

All other programs that I use daily do not cause this issue. No clue what to do here. LibreWolf works fine - that's what I'm using now that Firefox breaks everything and basically forces me to restart if I want to use my computer normally.

Hello, have been scratching my head for a while on this one. Have a freshly setup install of Debian 12, using Sway (wayland) as my Window Manager. I am really struggling with slowness in Firefox, page loads take easily 15 seconds whereas loading the exact same page in another window at the same time with Chromium Debian build has near instantaneous load times. I've tried the following troubleshooting steps: - Created a new firefox profile - Tried "Troubleshooting Mode" in Firefox - Disabled ipv6 in firefox about:config and in Debian - Tried different DNS servers - Tried different non-debian specific builds of Firefox - Tried Firefox Beta and Firefox Nightly for Debian

None of these steps made any difference, and Chromium has continued to be significantly faster. Am really stuck here and would love to get to the bottom of this as Firefox is the only browser that works with a HiDPI display in Sway without blurryness. Happy to provide any and all diagnostics and reports that are needed. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: It seems to be some kind of networking issue, using a VPN solves it. But still doesn't explain why Chromium would behave differently.

After some time of idle, i.e. leave the computer for some time, say over night. No suspend or hibernate. Back to the computer next morning, unlock. Then Firefox appears frozen/hang, can't switch tab (clicking tab has no response, but not really frozen, sometimes responses after dozens of seconds of lag), page also has no response. Then after around half to 2 minutes, everything back to normal.

During the "hang", CPU load is load, no memory stress (swapping/paging).

Environment:

Firefox 123.0 (64-bit), (actually it bothered me for years)

Linux 6.6.15-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.6.15-2 (2024-02-04) x86_64 GNU/Linux

CPU: Intel or AMD, not related. RAM: 64GB/96GB, free memory more than enough.

I will gather more detailed info later.

On bootup firefox opens a single window which says the following:

Sorry. We’re having trouble getting your pages back." We are having trouble restoring your last browsing session. Select Restore Session to try again.

The restore function succeeds in restoring 6 windows from the prior session, but this notice keeps appearing on every bootup.

Here are a few relevant details from about: config

  • browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes (is set to 1)
  • browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash (is set to true)
  • No 3rd party third party cleaning software
  • Two extensions, tab stash and tree tabs
  • There are no entries in about:crash for this event

Have been using Firefox from 2004 with 5-10 open windows which appear on bootup as they existed from the prior session. This is the first occurance of this error. Appreciate your support. Here are a few system details:

1.) 28gb ram 2.) Linux ~ LMDE 5 (Elsie) 3.) Firefox ESR 115.8 (oesr) 64 bit.

Hi Folk,

Firefox runs perfectly smooth in 3840x2160, so this is not a perf issue. However when switching from onboard laptop screen (2k) to my external WQHD screen, Firefox does not refresh, not reacting to input or mouse until I switch back and forth from another window. So it only refresh/repaint when main window looses and gets focus.

I have to restart firefox to make it works again.

It does the same with Thunderbird. My Qt apps and terminals (alacritty) are not impacted.

Updated. See bottom for up-to-date question.

Hello! :) I'm on a pretty fresh install of Debian bullseye. Immediately after launching Firefox ESR, it crashes. Not always, but every ~2nd launch. The Mozilla Crash Reporter "We're Sorry" appears and the crash looks like this in terminal: mars@desktop:~/Desktop$ firefox ExceptionHandler::GenerateDump cloned child 83677 ExceptionHandler::SendContinueSignalToChild sent continue signal to child ExceptionHandler::WaitForContinueSignal waiting for continue signal... mars@desktop:~/Desktop$

I tried making a fresh profile without addons/settings, and it still crashes but less at every ~6-7th launch. However, it does not crash in safe mode, though visiting websites while in safe mode is laggy. Here is the terminal of safe-mode: Missing chrome or resource URL: resource://gre/modules/UpdateListener.jsm Missing chrome or resource URL: resource://gre/modules/UpdateListener.sys.mjs Missing chrome or resource URL: resource://gre/modules/UpdateListener.jsm Missing chrome or resource URL: resource://gre/modules/UpdateListener.sys.mjs Sandbox: Unexpected EOF, op 0 flags 00 path /proc/cpuinfo

Any idea? Thanks in advance!

Extra observations:

  • Didn't have these issues with Firefox on Fedora (Wayland) and Gentoo.
  • Toggling Caps Lock takes about half a second to activate/deactivate in Firefox, resulting in a lot of accidentally capitalized letters.
  • Generally, Firefox seems pretty slow and scrolling through items/websites with images is a bit choppy. Websites load slower compared to my forementioned distros.
  • Not sure if it matters, but I installed Debian with automatic/guided (encrypted LVM) and noticed after that my swap size is only 980 MB when my RAM is 16 GB. Just mentioning it in case it's relevant.

System info:

  • DE: XFCE with x11.
  • Kernel: 5.10.0-21-amd64.
  • GPU: NVIDIA contrib non-free driver. Force Composition Pipeline ON. Allow Flipping OFF. TripleBuffer ON.
  • CPU: Intel i5 6600K

UPDATE: I found the cause of the crash. If I enable Use hardware acceleration when available, Firefox crashes on launch. If I disable it, it doesn't crash which is nice. BUT, it leads to unbearable lag and puts my CPU usage to 70-100% when dealing with videos or images. This exact thing happens on two fresh installs on different SSDs.

Any advice? Do I need some additional drivers for my Debian install? Thanks!

Info:

  • Debian Bullseye.
  • Firefox ESR 102.10.0.
  • GTX 970 w/ proprietary nvidia-driver.
  • GNOME on X11.

Other Linux browsers can load websites, but FireFox is problematic.

FireFox 102.6.0esr on Debian 11 with a 5.10.0-20-amd64 kernel. (http://security.debian.org/debian-security stable-security/main amd64 firefox-esr amd64 102.6.0esr-1~deb11… (funda kabanzi)

FireFox 102.6.0esr on Debian 11 with a 5.10.0-20-amd64 kernel. (http://security.debian.org/debian-security stable-security/main amd64 firefox-esr amd64 102.6.0esr-1~deb11u1 )

My problem initially started out on a profile migrated from Windows (with some extensions installed), but Ive reproduced from a brand-new profile. Similar to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-cant-load-websites-other-browsers-can

Although the problem is sporadic, it occurs more way frequently than I would like. I have done quite a bit of troubleshooting with different profiles, used the --profile flag, sometimes --safe-mode, sometimes called around strace -- the results are pretty much the same.

Launch FF (as a new profile), and it will display the two tabs:

Sometimes I am able to load in an additional website (which is short-lived), but ultimately traffic peters out and tabs are just spinning endlessly. No network timeouts. Firefox's just waiting on ... something.

Other times, when loading the profile with extensions enabled (NoScript, Multi-Containers, etc), clicking on a extension's drop-down menu (eg: Multi-Containers) it's not a full rendered drop-down but instead a thin (~2px) vertical line.

Errors from commandline:

  • Missing chrome or resource URL: resource://gre/modules/UpdateListener.jsm
  • Missing chrome or resource URL: resource://gre/modules/UpdateListener.sys.mjs

(The clean up of FireFox on normal quit can take up to 30 seconds)

When wrapped in strace I see ridiculous amounts of

  • recvmsg(4, {msg_namelen=0}, 0) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)

interspersed with

  • recvmsg(4, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="\16\0y\n+\0`\1\0\0>\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\

0\0\0\0\1\2z\n\0\0\0\0,\0`\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", iov_len=4096}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0},

0) = 64

Im not sure why this occurs with only FireFox. Ive ran instances SeaMonkey, Pale Moon, WaterFox, Epiphany, Google Chrome, Brave and Vivaldi without seeing these issues.

I highly suspect there's a conflict with something else I run. Already disabled fail2ban and apparmor. Are there any system calls from the strace that I should look for?
