[solved] emerald seems running, but is not decorating windows

I'm trying to run compiz+emerald standalone. Emerald seems to be running, because I activated some plugins (ring switcher and windows previews) and they are working perfect.
Also 'ps aux' reports emerald running, but I can't see windows decorations.
I'm running it via startx, this is my ~/.xinitrc
# ~/.xinitrc
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
compiz ccp &
emerald &
exec lxpanel
As I saw here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=51282
I've also tried running fusion-icon instead of compiz directly, with the same result.
Thanks in advance.

The "problem" was that the "Windows Decorator" plugin was deactivated. Just set it active and voilá, jejeje.
Thanks

Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 12.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

When I click on Firefox I get a window that says: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding.

I restarted the comuter and I shut down the computer. I also ran a full scan of the computer.

Sorry I am a PC user but have you seen
* [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
Firefox will be hanging for some reason. The quick solutions to kill the process and try again. The next step is to try to see if it will start and exit normally a couple of times, if so the problem is solved. If not the reason needs further investigation.
See [[firefox hangs]]
An immediate likely culprit after repeated problems are the duplicate session restore files, as discussed in the above KB article.

The Output Post-processor is running but has not picked up this request

Hi
We are getting the following error when running an XML Publisher report in 11.5.10
The Output Post-processor is running but has not picked up this request.
We have checked that the SQL query in the data template works fine. Also, the XML output if we remove the template looks fine. The XML data and template also work fine when merged manually in MS WORD, and also if we create a Java class and run the XDO classes explicitly.
In Manage Concurrent Managers, the OPP seems to be running fine.
How can we debug this issue in an acceptance test environment without sysadmin access?
The problem does not occur in other enviroments.
I think this is not the error described in MetaLink Note 352518.1. This is the ONLY XML Publisher report in the system, so the OPP cannot be busy with other reports, and it is not giving the processing timeout error message (so case 2 is out of question).

You can change the logging level of the OPP to statement to see more detail in the log file
(One problem we have is if you are running of a shared APPL-TOP environement where the conc manager job has to run on the physical node)

I get this message when I try to start Firefox after first logging on after turning on the computer.

Have rebooted. Works when Administrator logs in, just does this in my user profile. Have also re-intalled. Mo change in my User account.
Firefox was working fine for the last 3 1/2 years. Any suggestions?

Firefox is "hanging at exit" when you exit/quit Firefox.

Firefox keeps hanging up and freezing. I get this message. "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing--what a mess.

No matter how many times I open and close, firefox hangs up after surfing a few pages. When I look at task master, firefox is using up hundreds of thousands of kb, causing the processor to stall at 100%. I do not have this problem when surfing with IE. I have the latest version of firefox. I never had this problem with version 5. It keeps getting worse with each "update".

See [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
Obviously firefox should not hang after surfing a few pages. I have Firefox installed on an XP including firefox 6.0.2 and do not have problems.

* [[Firefox consumes a lot of CPU resources]]
* [[High memory usage]]
Have a read of the above linked articles. The first thing to do is to try to get firefox to behave more normally
#Use [[safe mode]]
#* but do not make changes when you have the window with a list of options just click continue
# if using safe mode does not solve the problem also
#* make sure you use the default theme
#* disable all pluggins
Note by keying in ''about:memory'' into the location bar you will get a report, which includes more info as you roll the mouse pointer over items, that should help indicate where all the memory is being used.

Firefox is already running, but is not responding, and neither is Firefox Safe Mode.

Hi.
When ever I try and open Firefox, it says,
''Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system.''
I tried restarting my computer, updating to the latest plugins using the Firefox Plugin Check (which is really convenient) and I even tried uninstalling Firefox and getting the new Firefox 4. However, nothing worked.
I searched for the problem on this site and it told me to run Firefox Safe Mode. I right clicked my Firefox icon and when I clicked Firefox Safe Mode, the same dialog came up and causing not even Firefox Safe Mode to run. No other Firefox window is open and task manager is informing me that no other Firefox application is running.
Thank you for reading this. Firefox is my favorite web browser and I really do not want to switch to something else.

I upgraded to 4.0b4 Beta 2 days ago and I have had no crashes, no failure to close and all of the Java script problems have vanished.
Normally I'd not advise people to rush out and try beta versions but this one seems more stable than the official release!

"FF is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close existing FF, or restart your system. So have to use Int Exp Would like to talk about this, but always get the results that support is closed

I prefer using Firefox, and do all the time. However, this used to happen occasionally, then go away. Now it is happening all the time.
If I try to enter aol email, I receive the message: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing FF process, or restart your system.
And I can find no way to close it when that happens.
Would really like to have this solved. Do not believe it is a computer or internet problem - just had my computer repaired because of a faulty disc drive. It is a three year old Dell, with Windows XP

I often get this message. Firefox is already running but is not responding.To open a new window you must first close the excisting Firefox process or restart your system.Thankyou Colin.

So this message appears mainly if I were changing web sites.Can't carry on until I have cleared everything from screen,gone on to my Thunderbird e-mail then Firefox will load again.I can then just carry on till next time.

Please look at [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]
The initial problem is solved by killing any process firefox.exe, ( & maybe also plugincontainer.exe) Make sure you always close firefox by using the option Firefox Button -> Exit
You may need to investigate further and clear some of the duplicated files that may exist.

Foxfire stays in back gro I get this script when I try to get back on Foxfire after closing it. Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart.

This happens 95% of the time when I close Foxfire and then later try to get back on. I usually have to restart my computer before getting back on to Foxfire.

Frequently when I open Firefox it says Firefox is already running but is not responding. I have to go to the task manager, find Firefox and close the process before I can get firefox to load.

Those are all the details I have

There is an article about this problem see:
* [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]

I close firefox and try to open it again later, it WON'T and says, "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." Firefox isn't running .

After I turn on my laptop and click on firefox it works fine and it opens THE FIRST TIME. So can you help? i DON'T WANT TO RESTaRT my computer everytime and sometimes have to clsoe firefox b/c I'm typing paper and computer goes slow.

Sounds like a "hang at exit" problem. There are several possible causes for that error. See:
* How to stop the running Firefox process
** In Task Manager, does firefox.exe show in the '''Processes''' tab?
** See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
* What may cause Firefox to hang at exit
** http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+hangs (see "Hang at exit" section)
** http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs
** https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+is+already+running+but+is+not+responding
* You may need to try Firefox Safe Mode
** You may need to use '''Safe Mode''' to locate the problem: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode
**Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''before''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
** If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''one at a time''' until the problem reappears. '''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.
