Process still running when windows are closed

Sometimes when I try to open Firefox I get a message stating that it is still running and I cannot open until I go to the task manager and end the Firefox process which is usually using several thousand kbs of RAM. What the hell is going on?

The above solution sounds like a bunch of BS. I never had to go to the file menu and select close firefox before I downloaded the latest version, version 5.0.1.
You guys a Mozilla hosed the program and ruined a good, no great thing.
FIX IT RIGHT!!!

How to tell embedded jinitator applet is still running when window closed

Hello, we are trying to accomplish the same thing that is mentioned in this post from Metalink. I've searched for a solution and hope someone here can help. Instead of restating the issue I think David Wilson does a good job of explaining what is needed. Can anyone please suggest a possible solution?

How to tell embedded jinitator applet is still running when window closed
Hi,
We run an oracle 10g forms application through 9iAS over an intranet. All users are running windows 2000 professional.
We run separate frame = true but I would like to switch to separate frame = false
With separate frame = true if the user clicks the outer windows "X" close button (forms mdi window) the user is prompted to save changes before the application ends.
BUT
when using separate frame = false
If the user clicks the upper window "X" button (no longer form mdi window but regular browser window) the window and application is abruptly closed.
I'm interested in using a onbeforeunload function to confirm if the user wants to close the window. This would be placed in the basejini.htm file. This could always ask if the user wants to exit or not. If they click OK then the window closes but if they click "Cancel" you are returned to the forms application exactly where you left. something like event.returnvalue="do you really want to exit?";
However if the user exited using the normal exit form method then the applet is already closed before the onbeforeunoad event fires and there is nothing to go back to and I want the window to close automatically. This is accomplished using close.html file in post forms trigger.
So what I want and what I think many may also want is the check if the embedded applet is still running and if so prompt the user to return to the application or continue to close. Of course If the applet is no longer running then just close because there is no reason confirm closing anymore.
Does anyone have a html/JavaScript solution that can be placed in the jinitiator.htm file? or similar?
Thank you
David

I don't know if this is exactly what you are after but you can add the following to the top of your basejini.htm file and it should prompt the user before exiting the IE window.
<BODY %HTMLbodyAttrs%>
%HTMLbeforeForm%
<SCRIPT>

David,
Well I could not understand your complete requirement.
Refer to Note.201481.1 How to Close the Browser Window When Closing Forms And How to Simulate SeparateFrame By Javascript
Note.115905.1 How to Close Browser Window When Closing Webforms Applet

Thank you for your reply and yes you did not understand my question fully.
Sorry if this is a long reply
I am able to close the browser window using information in notes 115905.1 and 201481.1, this is not the issue. We implemented this several years ago. It is workable for both separate frame = true or false.
It is most important to not allow the user to end their forms application by closing the windows browser, they must close using normal form exit commands.
What I want is to have separate frame = false, the big drawback to this option is the user can exit the application and bypass all forms code by pressing the windows "X" close button. This is why we need the code as just provided by Andrew Lenton above in this thread.
BUT Andrew's code will always prompt the user before closing the window and I do not want that. I want the user to be prompted only under scenario 2 listed below.
Here's the 2 case scenario for exiting the application.
1. If the user closes properly and uses exit form which fires all normal form triggers including post_form with it's call to close.html file.
All uncommitted changes are saved or rollback and the users session is ended normally both on the database and in the application server.
All browser windows will close, great all is good. And without Andrew's code the window will close but with Andrew's code the user will be prompted to close or not, if they select Cancel the window will remain but the applet has already ended so why prompt? ...This is what I want to avoid.
2. In the forms app. if the user clicks the windows "X" close button with uncommitted changes. The browser just closes the changes are rollback without prompting the user to save. The users sessions are now lost and still running in the database and application server until they are timed out.
If I use Andrew's code then the user will be prompted to continue to close or go back, if they click Cancel to go back then focus returns to the forms application and the user can continue to work. If the user clicks OK then the window closes and unfortunately their sessions are still lost until timed out.
So what I desire is to add to Andrew's code to check if the embedded applet is still running and prompt the user to close or not accordingly.
Something like:
Basejini.htm like
</HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function maximizeWindow()
window.moveTo(0,0);
window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
function confirm(){
If(document.embeddedapplet.closed())
Win.opener = self;
win.close();
Else if
event.returnValue = "Closing Forms Application. OK to continue?";
</SCRIPT>
<BODY %HTMLbodyAttrs%, onload="maximizeWindow()", onbeforeunload="confirm()">
%HTMLbeforeForm%
I hope this explains my requirements.

Subject: Re : How to tell embedded jinitator applet is still running when window closed
I'm sorry this is not helpful at all.
Note 199928.1 is only an alert which does not stop the closing of the window and still displays as an alert if the user does close properly using exit form ... so why would you want to display the alert then?
This is exaclty what I do not want and why I want to determine if the applet is still running before displaying any kind of message.

Closing thread.
Thanks,

Hello,
I had the same issue last year - wanting to provide a warning on closing the browser, but only if the Forms session is still running. The approach I took is described below, see also the thread where I originally posted this at Closing brower window
Hi there,I've had a similar requirement - or rather, the two conflicting requirements: to warn when the browser is being closed, but for the app to be able to close the browser without a warning being fired.
To always provide a warning when someone (the user or the Forms app) tries to go to a different page (e.g. your close.htm), use Javascript like:
function confirmExit(){
if(appletRunning==true) {
msg="Closing this window or navigating to another page will end your SomeGreatApp session.";
window.event.returnValue=msg;
And make a call to confirmExit() in the onBeforeUnload event of your main page.
You'll notice I first check an 'appletRunning' variable before displaying the warning. This Javascript variable is set to true by my app when it starts up, using an embedded Javabean that calls out to Javascript. Once that variable is set to true, then the warning will be displayed if the user tries to shut the browser by clicking on the 'x' button, or to go to a different URL.
When my app is shutting down, it uses the same Javabean to set appletRunning back to false. It then navigates to a close.htm - which will be done without a warning being displayed.
See Re: How can a Javabean call Javascript function of the basejpi.html?? for example code on how to call Javascript from a bean embedded in your Forms app.
Hope these ideas help you out, it's worked for me (so far, anyway!!)

Javaw.exe is still running when application is closed

The application works fine. when i close the application using "x" at the top of the window the javaw.exe is still running in task manager. javaw.exe is accumulating all memory when i run the again. The same problem occurs when i run the application through jar. Any help is appreciated

If you use
jframe.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
and you close de window, all your applications
running in the JVM will be closed too because System
exit is used. I prefer to use
jframe.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOS
E);
Alejandro H.If you had read the OP, he was complaining that the JVM was still running even though he had closed his application, which meant he wanted to stop the JVM.

Check the iPod Hardisk, with DiskDiagnostic as posted here by tt2
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17776595#17776595
It wont fix your problem, but help us both, in troubleshooting, and reducing frivolous suggestions.
If your report says high Realloc or Pending Sector, then it's time to have your hardisk replaced.
Have a nice day!

I'm trying to download Flash Player to my Macbook, and it keeps on stopping in the midst of downloading and saying "you need to quit safari" even though all of my Safari windows are closed, what do I do?

Thanks for any help

Cofeebean wrote:

Keep in mind that on the Mac, even if you close all windows of an application, the application itself may still be running with no windows open. If you have closed all Safari windows, look at the Dock to see if there is a glowing dot under the Safari icon. If there is a dot, Safari is still running, so click the Dock icon and then choose Safari/Quit Safari.
As an alternative to looking for the dot under an application in the Dock, I often use the Command-Tab keyboard shortcut to display the Application Switcher so I can see which applications are still open.
You don't have to open Activity Monitor to quit a program unless there really is no way to way to do it from the normal interface.
The only applications that quit when you close the window are the ones that only have one window, like System Preferences.

All windows are closed automatically

Hi,
I installed JDK 1.7.0, I created a custom java application I compiled with apache-ant-1.8.1 and when i run de application the main window are closed after 5 seconds without any user interaction. I think this is a bug of JDK release or some licensing requirements? Anyone know something about this?
the command:
java -version
show:
java version "1.7.0-ea"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0-ea-b112)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 20.0-b01, mixed mode, sharing)

kevin,
you're right, I made a small application with JPanel, JFrame and JLabel and is not closed.
The code is this:
package oata;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Ejemplo extends JPanel {
     public static void main (String [] args) {
          JFrame frame = new JFrame ("Ejemplo");
          JLabel jl = new JLabel("Ejemplo JLabel");
          frame.getContentPane().add(jl);
          frame.setSize(180,80);
          frame.setVisible(true);
But that can be then closes the window in my previous project?

I've run this by the folks from Cakewalk forums and had some suggestions to try but to no avail.
http://forum.cakewalk.com/sonarstdexe-still-runs-after-I-close-and-exit-program-m2960813.aspx
There is nothing on this in google that I can find "wdmaud!CWAVRenderer::FreeResources+0x8f"
Just wondering if there is anything I can do to see if I can fix my system, others in the forum can't replicate this issue...
Would re-installing the audio driver help? I don't want to do this unless I have to or if there are any other suggestions to try...
Thanks in Advance
Jim

Hi,
There are no physical audio or midi devices attached. I have HP ENVY 17 j005xt Notebook PC and has built-in audio HDT High Definition Audio CODEC sound card - and has the latest available drivers for this card already installed supplied by HP

Weird characters appear in title bar when windows are maximised

I am using awesome WM and when windows are maximised weird characters appear. It appears normal when unmaximised.
Maximised window:
Unmaximised window:

Well I finally figured out (accidentally ) that these indicate the state of window i.e floating, maximised horizontally, maximised vertically.

Is there a way to close VI's nicely when Window is closed with "X"?

Is there a way to close VI's nicely when Window is closed with "X"?
The VI is the GUI for an automated test console and I would like to save a state when it is closed to allow for the user to reopen the VI and the GUI is the same. At the very least I would like to make sure the equipment is placed into a safe state.
-Nate

Dennis, I could not find the VI you mentioned. How do you search on a vi's name in Labview? I even tried with Windows Explorer search and didn't find it.
What I did find was that you need to use the "Panel Close?" filter event to catch clicking on the X, and the "Application Instance Close?" filter event to catch clicking on the menu bar File - Exit. The attached vi does just this.

Freeing memory for Internal Frames when they are closed

Does anyone have any advice for a way to completely free all references to InternalFrames and their contents when they are closed? It appears that many references to the frame are held deep within Swing. Our application hold references to large memory structures in the InternalFrame, which means that we have a large memory leak whenever a frame is closed.

try to remove all listeners added to components which are part of the JIF before you dispose of the JIF.

How can you get CMD + L to open a new window, when all windows are closed?

In Firefox 28 and earlier, you could hit Apple + L (CMD + L) when no FF windows were open, and it would pull up a blank page with the cursor blinking in the address bar.
After installing FF 29, when you hit CMD + L (with no windows open) it just plays the system alert sound and does nothing.
I want to be able to hit CMD + TAB to gain control of an idle Firefox, and then be able to hit CMD + L to gain control of a BLANK address bar.
Every other version of Firefox I've ever used did this, so am I missing something here? Any ideas?
Note: I realize that you can hit CMD + N to launch a new window and then CMD + L to select the text within the address bar. I'm not looking to re-train my habits within Firefox, but simply want that feature like it was in the previous 28 versions.

Well, after an entire week without a word from Mozilla, I officially give up.
I understand that new software will have bugs when it is released. I understand that the bugs are fixed in the order of greatest impact/priority. I also understand that my issue is not a bug, rather a feature that was inexplicably removed.
A couple of things I cannot understand —
Why would Mozilla remove '''ANY''' features from their software when they are touting this as the most customizable web browser ever? That is obviously not logical and will be to their detriment in the long run.
Furthermore, if a person did get on here just to complain about this update, they were immediately met with a canned response from a moderator, which offered a few options to make Firefox '''LOOK''' like the previous version. That speaks volumes about this update and the developers' confidence in it. The person who gets on here with a legitimate problem asking why a feature was removed — they get '''NO''' response from a moderator. Again, this speaks volumes. I am not even asking for an immediate solution to this problem, just the acknowledgement that there is a problem. On top of that, especially in the development of software, the old adage particularly rings its truest — ''If it ain't broke, don't fix it.''
Lastly, I think we can all agree that Firefox 29 is a blatant ripoff of Google Chrome. If I wanted Google Chrome, that is exactly what I would have downloaded. That pains me not only as a devout Firefox user for nearly 10 years, but especially as I have donated over $200 to the Mozilla Foundation in that time. In other words, I have financially supported the development of a software that has become absolutely indifferent to its users' needs, and moreover, they have now resorted to copying off of their neighbor.
I have since rolled back versions — all the way to Netscape Navigator 9 — which seems to have just about as much functionality as the bungled mess that is Firefox 29.
I genuinely appreciate all of the time and effort that goes in to creating open-source software, and I financially support the projects that I feel adhere to the open-source philosophy. That said, Mozilla.org seems to be straying away from this philosophy, to the point where, for me, it is simply time for a change.
Thanks for the memories, Firefox!

20.0.1: File== New Window & New Private Window will not open then Firefox will not stop running when application is closed

Although nothing appears to be happening when clicking on either New Window or New Private Window there seems to be processes started because when I try to close Firefox and reopen, I get an error message saying that Firefox is already running. My only option then is to stop the processes via Task Manager. I have tried (several times) to uninstall and reinstall.

Although advised not to, I finally hit the reset button in the Save Mode Window. This corrected the problem. I suspect a faulty add-on - I try and reject many. I will add them back on at a time as I develop the need. Thanks for you help.

FireFox, despite being in a separate window, which is suponque a separate instance, when leaving the menu "exit" All the windows are closed, why is that? It has some configuration that prevents this?

open FireFox
press [CTRL]+[N]
(now are 2 Window of FireFox, ok?)
click on Menu
click exit
Ops! All Window of FireFox are closed?

My guess is that someone was trying to protect the system properties and then they wanted to add on the top of that. Thus they came up with that idea.Yeah, I was thinking that too. I bet you are right.
But Properties exposes no API to restore defaults to the current instance. If some key/value gets "overwritten" by a put in the current instance, shadowing a key/value in defaults, there is no way to bring the default value back to the foreground except by deleting key (and thus restoring visibility to defaults).Err...although true I doubt it is relevant.
Consider.
1. Something grabbed a property value before you did anything. Nothing you do will change that. I suspect most VM stuff works this way.
2. Something grabbed the properties and kept a reference. Nothing you do will change that.
3. You changed it, so why would you want the other value?
4. Deleting it does restore it.
Given the above what situation from that do you think is relevant to your question? Or is there some other situation that you are considering?

I need to update Firefox, but it keeps saying that Firefox needs to be closed first (even though all windows are closed). I cannot install or remove Firefox files due to this problem.

Firefox was unable to open google, and I saw there was an update for that problem, but I am unable to install the update (or any update for that matter) as well as removing Firefox. Every time I try to do so, I get a message that I must close Firefox first (even though there are no windows open). I checked applications to be sure, and it does not appear Firefox is running when this happens.

Hi kshikuma. This happens to me sometimes, as well.
To solve this issue, open the Windows Task Manager by hitting Ctrl+Alt+Del.
Go to the "Processes" tab and see if a process named "firefox.exe" or "plugin-container.exe" is opened. Close any and all such processes by right-clicking them and selecting "End Process".

Firefox 5.0 won't open a new window if all windows are closed or minimized

Running Firefox 5.0 under Mac OS X 10.6.8. If I close all of the windows, or all windows are minimized, I can't open a new window. A new window is listed in the Windows menu with the name "Mozilla Firefox", but the window does not actually exist. The ghost window can't be selected from that menu and therefore also can't be closed

Well, the behavior I described is now intermittent. Sometimes I can open a new window and sometimes I can't. If I can't, command-Tab does nothing. So far I've found no consistent circumstances under which I can or can't open a new window.
Originally I was running computationally intensive program that required 3.35 days to complete its run. When the run was over the Firefox problem disappeared - for awhile. Then the problem recurred in the intermittent fashion I've described.

Process still running when windows are closed
