First you restart the first process, then you click the "restart to update" button in the second process. Actual results: The second firefox process does not restart and has to be re-run manually. Firefox exits with an error and the next time you open it, the tab restore "This is embarrassing" page comes up. This is the error when firefox shuts down: (process:29823): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_path_get_basename: assertion 'file_name != NULL' failed sh: 0: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory sh: 0: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory [1]- Exit 1 ./firefox -P will_browsing_new --new- instance Expected results: The second Firefox process restarts normally.

It would be really helpful to have a stacktrace from the assertion. Could you help catch that?

How do I get a stacktrace? I don't have a debug build or anything.

I don't think we have downloadable symbol packages for our Linux builds, so attaching with gdb would produce mostly garbage by default. Ted, I know that we've used tools to translate between cores and minidumps... do you have instructions for how somebody might do this? I presume breakpad isn't useful in this case because the crash happens either early in startup or late in shutdown.

Could this be as simple as a 'is it already running' check that is not taking the profile into account? using: Firefox 67 on Ubuntu 18.04. Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1833798/comments/6 ** Changed in: firefox Status: Unknown => Confirmed ** Changed in: firefox Importance: Unknown => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1833798 Title: no restore after update when multiple profiles in use Status in Mozilla Firefox: Confirmed Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When Firefox is ready to force use of a new update, it displays in a tab a message: "Sorry. We just need to do one small thing to keep going. Firefox has just been updated in the background. Click Restart Firefox to complete the update. We will restore all your pages, windows and tabs afterwards, so you can be on your way quickly." However when I am using multiple profiles concurrently, after I click on the "Restart Firefox" button, a window for the profile that received the message does not get restarted after it has been closed and the update for that profile activated. Instead the profile has to be restarted manually as do all of the tabs that were open at the time in that profile. (Note: I typically get this message one profile at a time. The other open profiles are not immediately affected.) I expected that Firefox would restore the one window for the profile that was closed and restore all of the tabs to their previous URL, if not their previous state. Most recently this happened to me as Firefox started updating from 67.0.2 to 67.0.3, but it has been a problem with earlier versions as well. Unfortunately, because this is initiated by the availability of a new Firefox update, I do not have instructions on how to reproduce this problem on demand.
