Firefox-Nightly crashes because of libgnomevfs2-0

I can regenerate the crash whenever i download something/open the download window or open the general settings tab under preferences.
I would probably have to report this bug as a libgnomevfs problem? but I was thinking if there was a replacement or a fix any1 was aware of?
error msg:
firefox-nightly: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/libfile.so: undefined symbol: gnome_vfs_unescape_string

I just ran into this as well (like 2 seconds ago). i am not sure exactly which package in Arch is causing this problem, but i can at least narrow it down for you all significantly (down to 15 packages!). the reason being i didn't have this problem until after installing gnome-python-extras and all of it's dependencies, just a few minutes ago.... So, as soon as i removed all of that junk firefox-nightly started working again. I thought i would search the Arch Forum quickly and low and behold ~ here is a thread where Archer's might want to know about this
here's the list of suspects;
gnome-python-extras
python2-egg
python2-gda
python2-gksu2
python2-gtkhtml2
python2-gtkspell
gtkspell
libgda
libgnomeui
libgtkhtml
gtksourceview2
libbonoboui
libmysqlclient
libunique
postgresql-libs
I don't know which package it is, but feel free to figure it out, if that's your cup of tea
cheers

Firefox Nightly crashes when opening it

After installing the past 2 nightly builds the application crashes hard when launched with a Windows exception error.
Firefox Nightly 6.0a1 4.26 (?) and 4/28 - both crash after installing from both the Updater & full installer. Buils 4/24 works perfectly.
Environment:
Windows 7 SP1, x64 version
ATI 5680 graphics card with latest drivers.
Kaspersky, Comodo - both disabled.
Windows Error Report attached.

I've been very surprised since this is one of the few times that has happened, other the crashes with flash in minefield it's been solid. Someone fell asleep a the wheel with the latest build.

Firefox keeps crashing because of flash

everytime i open firefox and go to a site like youtube or ign its immediately shuts down. im guessing it is because of flash or another plugin as some sites like google do not have this issue. would love some help as this is affecting every browser on my pc.

thanks for the suggestions. I'll be trying the downgrade of Flash because the updated shockwave/firefox didn't work well...
here's why:

Firefox Nightly crashes every time I try to open it. How do I fix this?

I tried redownloading the latest version but it didn't help

You can try to start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] by holding down the Options key.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode

Why can't you guys keep FireFox from crashing? I need this browser for my College Courses and this is making me angry because it's putting me behind.

It seems like every day I have to restart my computer because Firefox's consistency for staying up and running properly is a complete failure. This is unacceptable; I have College courses that I take online and every time the Firefox browser crashes I lose work and when I lose work I get bad grades in school because you have failed your duty to maintain a browser that you also had to earn a degree to get the job. I'm very distraught over this and I'm very close to using a new browser if you don't square this away like yesterday. Not only do I get bad grades I also have to pay the school back the money if I fail. If I fail this course because you didn't do your job I'm going to make you pay the school back for my trouble.

Could you spend a day using Firefox in its Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. If there are some extensions you cannot live without, see the suggestion after the break. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?
Alternately, try a couple of the things Safe Mode does for you:
(1) Disable Firefox's use of hardware acceleration for graphics
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
This will take effect the next time you exit and start Firefox up again.
(2) Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Hopefully this will minimize the potential causes of instability.

With the last update of Nightly, Firefox always crash, what can i do?

I have Nightly 64 bits on Windows, since the last update it always crash, even if i have re-install... What can I do?

Firefox crashes because of msvcrt

Title...
This seems to be a rather widespread error though, if you look at the statistics: https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/products/Firefox
The crash appears when closing Firefox. I already tried to uninstall Visual Studio but that changed nothing.
//EDIT:
I just wanted to write down the numbers:
msvcrt.dll@0x2070 - 11,441 crash reports on 4.0.1
msvcrt.dll@0x2070 - 7,970 crash reports on 3.6.17

i had similar trouble...resolve for me was to upgrade internet explorer to ver 8

Firefox crashes because of access violation

PS: Don't trust the Troubleshooting information - since I can't start Firefox (and IE too), I'm using a different machine to post my question.

Firefox is crashing constantly for no apparent reason. Updated Firefox and Mac OS from Tiger to Leopard. Help!

For the last few days Firefox crashes no matter what I am doing. It has crashed twice while looking at this help page. Mac OS 10.6.7

The crashes have been fixed today. Starting with this nightly build:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/2014/06/2014-06-29-08-15-12-mozilla-aurora/
I would advise you to switch back to the release build of Firefox and not the beta or alpha (Aurora) versions of Firefox.
I'm a nightly build tester myself and I have a separate release build installed that I can use if I run into problems with the nightly build. If you don't like the idea of having 2 types of the Firefox browser installed, please just install the release version.
Because having the aurora Firefox as your only browser put you in a very bad situation where you were constantly crashing and frustrating yourself just to sign up on this forum. And I don't recommend the beta or aurora browser to users who just want their browser to work b/c one day they will be finding themselves fighting off mysterious/annoying bugs.
So please take that suggestion under advisement. :)

[SOLVED] Firefox 26 Crashing - Assertion Failure

Hi all. Since the upgrade to Firefox 26, I've been experiencing lots of crashes. I am currently on 26.0-2, but the issue was also prevalent on 26.0-1. Basically, after starting Firefox, it crashes with no warning, usually either within the first 10 seconds or a few minutes later.
I've tried starting Firefox from a terminal to see any errors and strangely enough, when I do that the crashes are much less frequent (the problem almost disappears and FF can last several hours). I eventually caught a crash in the terminal and it says the following.
(firefox:12326): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_clipboard_get_for_display: assertion '!display->closed' failed
This problem exists for me with both regular Firefox from the Arch extra repo and Nightly from the AUR.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Thanks!

Yep, I noticed the same thing...
And this seems to be a recurring theme for me with Arch. Tomboy launched from the menu results in an unresponsive tray icon. Launched from a terminal? Works perfectly fine! The same was happening for the game Hammerwatch - worked fine if launched directly in a terminal, or if Steam was launched from a terminal, but if I launch Steam from the menu, the game crashes (unless I add LD_LIBRARY_PATH=:/usr/lib/mono %command% into the game's launch options...). I do not know what is going on, but it's really got me wondering about my future with Arch. And that sucks, because I've loved the month or two I've spent with the distro so far, other than these *really* annoying issues. I have searched and searched for several weeks, and come up with no solutions so far. The worst part is, other Arch users say things run fine for them (Hammerwatch players using Arch, posting on the Steam forums, for example). Very frustrating.

Nightly crashing on start

Nightly crashes on startup and does not produce a crash report as of the latest update. It ran just fine yesterday and I have not made any changes to my system. I am running on Win 7 64 bit with all recent updates. I have also attempted to open Nightly in safemode using the shift key but it crashes before it is able to do so and have also tried using a different profile as well.
Note: I am posting this through the Firefox Beta build and not Nightly.
Attached is the windows crash report.

The information you provided is the crash dump, not the crash report.
It would be great to have a crash report. Can you try these steps and see if you can produce one?
#Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
#In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
#From that explorer window, double-click on the ''Mozilla'' folder, then double-click on ''Firefox'' and then on ''Crash reports''. Double-click on ''submitted''.
#Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to ''View'' > ''Arrange Icons by'' > ''Modified'' to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
#Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
#Paste each ID with '''bp-''' into the reply window on the forums.
Thanks in advance!
You can find more information and troubleshooting steps in the [[Firefox crashes]] article.
<h3>Can't produce a crash report? Don't worry.</h3>
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=troubleshooting&r=3&as=s#w_5-reinstall-firefox here].
WARNING: Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

Java plugin causing Firefox to crash

I installed the newest Java plugin today and it asked me to restart Firefox. Now it crashes as soon as I open it. It will not open in Safe Mode because it won't stay open for more than half a second. I tried re-installing it and restarting my computer and it's having the same problem. I can't open about:crashes because it won't stay open.

Make sure that you've installed the 32 bit Java version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.
*http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html (Java Platform > Java SE 6 > Download JRE)

FireFox sometimes crashes when you open it. Not always.

I run Win7 64 bit and have been having intermittent problems where FireFox will crash maybe 5 or 6 times a day when I try to open it. Then other times FireFox opens just fine. I have the mini dump file that was generated as well as the the Event Viewer Errors that show up.
Hopefully these files will be helpful, but I am not sure how to include them in this question.

See:
*http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/
*http://nightly.mozilla.org/
Note that the Aurora (28.0a2) and Nightly (29.0a1) build are updated daily and can be unstable being alpha releases. 
You always need to install such a version alongside of the current release via a custom install and use a separate profile for each Firefox version.
Make sure not to start Firefox after the installation has finished and use the Profile Manager to create a new (separate) profile for each version. 
Do a custom install in a different program folder and use the Profile Manager to create a new profile for this version, so make sure not to start Firefox after the installation has finished.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Testing_pre-release_versions
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Shortcut_to_a_specific_profile

Firefox keeps crashing even in safemode and with new profile.

Firefox started crashing every minute or so after a recent Windows update (coincidence). After trying the following procedures (see below), creating a new profile solves the problem until I select "Automatically add" on this page, so the problem must be related to running scripts. (it also means I can't automatically add my troubleshooting information)
These are the procedures I attempted after the problem started which did NOT fix the problem:
Uninstalled most recent Windows updates.
Disabled Networxs and Spybot.
Ran Firefox in safe mode.
Run full virus scan (Malwarebytes).
Reinstalled Firefox.
System restore to before most recent Windows updates.
System restore to last week (problem only started yesterday).
Re-reinstalled Firefox.
(note: my drivers are all up to date)
Created a new profile which this allows me to browse without crashing until (as far as I can tell) Firefox attempts to run certain scripts. In the old profile Firefox crashes within two minutes even if I do nothing except open the browser and leave it alone.
Given that the problem persisted even in safe mode the problem must not be add-on related. And since Firefox still crashes with a new profile is must not be a configuration conflict. But it also pesists after a system restore and being reinstalled, so it must be something Firefox uses outside of the profile files that isn't an add on and isn't overwritten.
I don't want to do a complete clean install because that would mean losing my history, passwords, customized add-ons (user dictionary, AdBlock scripts, NoScript allow/block list, etc.), bookmarks (I realise I can recover those), and custom about:config lines. It was working fine two days ago so it has to be something that auto-updates in the background because I have all updates (Firefox, Windows, etc.) set to manual exactly so I can avoid nasty surprises like this one.
Any help in resolving this issue so I don't have to start again from scratch and lose literally years of customization would be greatly appreciated.

Note that safe mode does not disable plugins (only add-ons). The issue here is most likely a corrupt plugin. It looks like you have a lot of plugins installed, including some known to be very problematic. Specifically these ones:
NPRuntime Script Plug-in Library for Java(TM) Deploy
Questrade IQ Edge detector plugin
Citrix Online App Detector Plugin
Coupons, Inc. Coupon Printer Plugin
NPWLPG

Firefox automatically crashes after 4 hours of use and only when a textbox is being used - problem now daily and getting worse

This has been going on for a few weeks and started of it's own accord. I have not recently installed any new plugins or scripts, and my PC is protected by two antivirus products and so my system (WinXP) is malware free.
I can browse firefox for up to 4 hours, and then it crashes. No matter what sites I am using, what I am doing or even if I'm at the PC... so long as there's a text box on the page then firefox will crash if the 4 hour time limit expires. I can be just about to save an hours worth of photo captions and lose all that work due to the crash, or can be in the middle of a background download but it'll still crash... daily.
I thought this was a plugin issue, as I have disabled all plugins for javascript handling, flashgot, etc, but still it crashes. (previously on startup Firefox would hang for 5 to 10 minutes and the system would "bing" at me if I tried to click on the firefox window... eventually a 'non responsive script' window would appear relating to a flashgot script). The crash used to go whereby suddenly the page would freeze for a few seconds, followed by a minute or two of safe working, then 2 minutes of freeze and 30 seconds of safe working, with the ratio of freeze-tim:working time working in 20 seconds increments until firefox crashed... now though there is no warning, the page freezes and then it's gone. I have updated firefox several times and still the problem persists. On a previous computer, Firefox degraded to the point where it froze for 4 minutes on any page with a Flash application... now on this computer it has degraded by itself to the point where it crashes after 4 hours of use.
I'm presently using Internet Explorer to type this question because firefox crashed again and I'm not going to sit waiting for it to reload just to get a few numbers from an information screen... therefore further info like crash ID's etc will be update in due time....

Cool, I'll try using the wall adaptor just as soon as I get a convertor for it to convert it to our socket type. It's nice to hear that someone else has experienced the same issue.
I am not using it as a phone in Australia, just the ipod and wifi.
