--- Comment #1 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
This is not a bug per se: the first started instance grabs the profile, which
causes all subsequent instances (launched during the first session run) to try
to connect to the first session and ask it to process their request. But the
first instance is launched with a single --convert-to parameter, so it doesn't
process others' requests, but just finishes its job and quits.

A workaround could be to launch the worker instance in advance, without any
--convert-to switches, so that it would run in the background and wait for
other instances' requests. Then it would work. This has an additional benefit
of greater performance (no overhead of initializing LO for every launched
process).

Another way would be to guarantee that the first instance is finished before
launching the next (no concurrent runs).

But of course, this is a valid enhancement request, to allow signalling to
secondary instances that their request is refused so that they could wait until
the primary instance is finished, and do that themselves (with the risk of
waiting indefinitely for the primary instance in case it hangs for some
unrelated reason, then behaving similarly to bug 38915).
