2. Run the profile manager
d...@fubar ~/.mozilla/firefox firefox35 -profileManager

done.

which would choose between MORE than one profile...
3. Make sure that 'default' is chosen (assuming that is what you want)

done.

4. Then, make sure you then call firefox35 correctly:
/usr/local/bin/firefox35 -P' default'

step...@x300:~/.mozilla/firefox$ firefox35 -P' default'
Profiling timer expired
Did you upgrade to the latest -CURRENT package with an existing ~/.mozilla directory? I always delete an existing ~/.mozilla directory prior to upgrading firefox35. Maybe that is what you need to do in your case.

I have ONLY seen "Profiling timer expired" when I was using

$ firefox35 -P' default'

and it did not look like this:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles

My 'ssh' profile was highlighted instead.

When I have NO profiles set up I would just call

$ firefox35 &

and it works FINE without that "Profiling timer expired" message.


I'm sorry if what I outlined above doesn't solve your problem, but I have never gotten that message with a clean install.

HTH,
Dave
