Demantra - ERROR Another Engine is already running

Hi all,
When trying to run AE in batch or simulation mode this error occures:

11:29:34:386 ERROR Another Engine is already running in simulation mode.
Please make sure to stop all other running Engines either in batch or simulation mode before retrying.
I found another thread with the same problem but no answer helped.
I tried running KillEngine.exe, KillProcess.exe, and several other intuitive solutions but none worked.
Waiting for guidance.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Can you please check existing live DB sessions that are targeting the same DB user?
In case another person is using the same DB user as you, and started his Engine Manager, you'll get this error.
Please verify if there are other sessions open and kill them, if so

Error message "Firefox is already running but is not responding" - I have read and action the KB - no fix

So before we start - I have read the KB (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-already-running-not-responding) and actioned the advice on how end the processes, delete the parental lock, etc. This gives a temporary but one time only fix and does not resolve the overall issue.
I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the application.
So why do I get the Error message "Firefox is already running but is not responding"?

See also:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_in_use
Note that in Firefox 13+ (expected to be released June 5) the parent.lock file is no longer deleted after closing Firefox to make it possible to check for startup crashes, so the presence of that file will in the future no longer indicate a problem.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

When i try to open firefox, I get a message saying another copy is already running. I have tried shutting down comletely and computer still thinks there's another copy running. How can this be?

There are two separate desktops on this computer, one for me and one for another user. Her Firefox is not affected. I have looked everywhere for this second copy supposedly running but I don't see how it can be because I have shut down all programs several times.

There are a few possible causes for that error, for details see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]].

How do I install Firefox upgrade when I get a messasge that another version is already running (which it is not)?

Every day I have been getting a notice saying that installation of a Firefox upgrade (v. 3.67.8)is strongly recommended. I have been a very happy user of v.3.6.3, with Vista.
I clicked on the installation and it did not work! It began downloading and then I got this message in a little window:
The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer, and then restart Firefox to try again.
If I click OK in that window, or if I close the window, the downloading starts again and I get the same message!
I do not find Firefox in my list of programs, and the icon for my previous version (3.6.3) no longer works!

Downloaded latest Firefox version but cannot open as say another version is already running even if I do not have it open. What is wrong?

Downloaded the latest version of Firefox on my Mac and it won't open as keeps saying that Firefox is already running. This keeps happening even after I log out and re-boot the computer. I don't understand why if I do a download to an existing operation it doesn't piggy-back onto the old one and function. Please help as I have looked at all your Q & A and did not find anything to address download won't work because older version still "running" even when closed. I have Mac OS X version 10.6.3. Thank you.

How do I resolve the error "Another installer is currently running, which must be closed before updating" when updating CC on MacOS 10.9.4?

Creative Cloud keeps alerting me to an available update but whenever I try to install it it tells me there is another installer running which must be shut down first.
I've now shut down and restarted the Mac completely and nothing else is running but it still gives me the same error (Error code: 81). See screen shot below.
I'm running Mavericks (OSX 10.9.4). How do I resolve this?

Please try the mentioned steps:
1. Navigate to Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installer and look for CC desktop, if present run the uninstaller to uninstall it.
2. Navigate to Applications/Utilities and look for Adobe Application Manager folder and Creative cloud folder. If present move to trash and empty it.
3. Navigate to Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE and rename to OOBE.old
4. Download CC desktop from: https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud and try to install again.

I frequently find that when closing Firefox, and try to reopen again, get error message "Firefox is already running, but not responding. Recommend to close it, or restart system". Using Windows Task Manager, no application is found. After restart, OK.

At the update to Firefox 3.6.8, I also updated to Flash 10.

I get this problem often, on my computer which runs XP, I find simply waiting a few moments (up to a minute) is enough to end the process.
On my Vista machine, it sometimes works that way, but if FF locked up (stopped) and is ended through the task manager, it often requires a reboot or a much longer wait (up to 10 minutes or more).

"Close Firefox - Error Message -. Firefox already running, but not responding -.." A real pain - Firefox worked much better before all the updates!! How do I fix this?

This pop-up appears anytime I attempt to close Firefox and immediately open another browser, etc.
Suspect it is add-ons related. Never had the problem with "older" version of Firefox.
It is a real nuisance, almost makes me go to Explorer!

Try to wait a bit longer (up to 1 minute or maybe more) as it can take some time for Firefox to close completely.

Error message firefox is already running deleted profiles uninstalled and reinsalled firefox but still get message

I cannot open firefox at all.

Hi,
Thanks for the solutions regarding Firefox not opening, but I've tried all of them before posting to the forum and none worked. In addition to those steps I've also uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox three times. But that didn't help. Oh, I've also done a rollback to a date that preceeded the problem but again, no good. I' stumped at this point..........

Installing Photoshop CC 2014 fails - Another installer is already running

rebooted several times. No other programs are opened.

restart your computer and retry.
if that fails, check your task manager (win) or activity monitor (mac).

While browsing Firefox, display another htm*file by double-clicking it in Windows Explorer and not getting the erro message "Firefox is already running (etc) "

While browsing the Web with Firefox, I often want to view an htm (or html etc) file that is recorded on my computer, by double-clicking it in my Windows Explorer, hoping it will open automatically a new tab.
When I try this now, I get the error message "Firefox is already running (etc)" .
In my current setup, Firefox is associated with the htm and html file name extensions.
If, instead of double-clicking the filename in the Explorer, I choose the Firefox menu item "Open a file", this works OK.
In old versions of Firefox, double-clicking a filename in the Windows Explorer or File Manager caused Firefox to open a new window every time which was ok.
I have the same problem with Thunderbird, which I have associated with the "eml" file name extension. How can I view a series of recorded ".eml" files with Thunderbird when Thunderbird is already running ? Thank you.

The target field of the desktop shortcut is "D:\C_Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" (no switch)
The system/environment variable MOZ_nO_REMOTE is now 0, changed from 1, but I can see no difference. Maybe I need to restart the system to get a change ?
Thank you.

I tried a fresh install and get "Firefox is already running" error

Win XP SP3. Links in web pages opened in Firefox were not working. I tried reinstalling latest Firefox version over existing version. Didn't help. Uninstalled Firefox, reinstalled; didn't help. Did a total uninstall including manually removing all Firefox files and folders. Rebooted in-between. Now I keep getting the error message "Firefox is already running ..." Tried the steps in the article in your database but no longer have a profile. Bottom line: can no longer install a working version of Firefox.

You probably did delete the Firefox profile folder, but didn't remove the profiles.ini file, so Firefox isn't able to find the old profile and displays misleading and confusing error message.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/profiles.ini_file
* https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Firefox+is+already+running+but+is+not+responding
You can delete profiles.ini to make Firefox create a new default profile or use the profile manager to create a new profile.

Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Thunderbird process, or restart your system.

See:

Do you still have a default profile?<br />
If not then delete the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/profiles.ini_file profiles.ini] to make Firefox create a new default profile.
