[arch-general] Firefox crashes randomly
Hello! I have problem with randomly crashing Firefox 62.0 or single tabs in this browser on 64-bit Arch Linux system. Running Firefox in safe mode doesn't help. Resetting browser or removing folder ~/.mozilla still doesn't help. Any ideas how to fix this issue? -- Cheers, Hubert Hauser.
Hi, Maybe you can find something in the logs journalctl -qb /usr/bin/firefox Hubert Hauser via arch-general <arch-general@archlinux.org> schrieb am Do., 20. Sep. 2018, 18:21:

Hi, Firefox 62.0 runs fine on my Arch system. Though I once encountered a similar issue as you describe. I didn't allocate enough space for shared memory (/dev/shm) and that caused then such crashes. In your case seems the 2 firefox child instances cannot communicate with the parent instance through a pipe. Maybe worth checking the shared memory.

Do you get core dumps? Try doing running coredumpctl (possibly with root rights). Of course, probably the backtraces would not be useful without the debugging symbols.

Some more things to try: * Test with a standard (non-Hardened) kernel, and with linux-lts. * Uninstall and reinstall Firefox and check there's no filesystem corruption. * Test with Beta, Developer and Nightly versions, from the repos and direct from Mozilla. * Test using a live installer environment ("Live CD") which has Firefox 62 available. * Test your RAM. * Check your temperatures and clean out your machine. These should let you narrow down the cause somewhat. However, I suspect a newer FF version will have already fixed this; I had a few weeks of FF Nightly frequently crashing a couple of months ago (so that was probably 62a1). IIRC the output was the same as
$ firefox ExceptionHandler::GenerateDump cloned child 14579 ExceptionHandler::SendContinueSignalToChild sent continue signal to child ExceptionHandler::WaitForContinueSignal waiting for continue signal...
Hi!
* Test with a standard (non-Hardened) kernel, and with linux-lts. Doesn't matter. * Uninstall and reinstall Firefox and check there's no filesystem corruption.kayah wieniawa Still doesn't work. * Test with Beta, Developer and Nightly versions, from the repos and direct from Mozilla. Nightly build seems working fine. * Test using a live installer environment ("Live CD") which has Firefox 62 available. * Test your RAM. RAM has passed memtest. * Check your temperatures and clean out your machine.
Seems to be okay. -- Cheers, Hubert Hauser.
Hello I have in my fstab size=192m. But to check just start firefox in one shell window and check in another shell window with df whether there is enough space in /dev/shm. Regards, Harm-Jan Zwinderman On 9/20/18 9:36 PM, Hubert Hauser via arch-general wrote:

Hi,
Maybe you can find something in the logs

Hello!
I have problem with randomly crashing Firefox 62.0 or single tabs in this browser on 64-bit Arch Linux system. Running Firefox in safe mode doesn't help. Resetting browser or removing folder ~/.mozilla still doesn't help. Any ideas how to fix this issue?

But to check just start firefox in one shell window and check in another shell window with df whether there is enough space in /dev/shm.
Space in /dev/shm is enough. Here's my observations: tmpfs 1.0G 56K 1.0G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 1.0G 56K 1.0G 1% /dev/shm And during crash: tmpfs 1.0G 20M 1005M 2% /dev/shm tmpfs 1.0G 20M 1005M 2% /dev/shm -- Best regards, Hubert Hauser.

The first step, before you could fix something, would be troubleshooting. Firefox is broken for me, too, but IMO troubleshooting a Firefox issue isn't worth the effort, since there are many browsers available, that are less painful, than Firefox ever was. If safe-mode and/or a new profile don't make a difference, for testing purpose consider to run Firefox by a new added user (clean caches, default WM theme etc.). -- pacman -Q linux{,-rt{-securityink,-pussytoes,-cornflower,}}|cut -d\ -f2 4.18.8.arch1-1 4.18.7_rt5-1 4.18.5_rt3-1 4.16.18_rt12-1 4.16.18_rt11-1

There is also the Firefox extended support release: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/52.6.0esr/ https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/52.6.0esr/linux-x86_64/en-US/ On Thu, Sep 20, 2018 at 01:35:32PM -0400, null via arch-general wrote:

Chances are good, that on a system were Firefox fails, that Pale Moon fails, too. I dislike to recommend a replacement browser for another browser, however, it might be worth to take a look at Falkon. Btw. IceCat seems not to suffer from the same issues as Firefox does, but it has got a lot of oddities. Depending on the user's needs a browser that does not follow that much a Firefox alike approach, might be an alternative, too. QupZilla was much better than Firefox, but the last versions of QupZilla started failing, after becoming Falkon, it doesn't fail anymore, but lost some of the QupZilla magic. Btw. a QupZilla profile could be used with Falkon, too.
Hi Ralf,

I'm a long-time Firefox user that upgrades packages most days and haven't had any problems with the upgrade from 61.0.2-1 to 62.0-1 on 2018-09-06. I suspect there are many like me so Hubert should probably persevere with trying to give Mozilla enough detail for a diagnosis. -- Cheers, Ralph. https://plus.google.com/+RalphCorderoy

Is there a particular site (or sites) that it crashes on? DR

No. Then this thread is pretty useless without a crash report or a way to reproduce the error since it works for a lot of us. I just see a whole bunch of replies recommending other browsers and deriding firefox and not anything constructive.
