Well I tried to remove firefox (apt-get purge firefox) and reinstall firefox. This doesn't work. I found out, that /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b4/components/libbrowserdirprovider.so is a directory and not a file. The directory itself cannot be deleted, I think there is a filesystem problem. So I renamed firefox-3.0b4 to firefox-bak and tried again removing and installing firefox. No success. I get the error error mentioned above: "Close Firefox - Firefox is already running, but is not responding [...]", while there is no running process.
So I denistalled firefox and all related packages (e.g. gnash-plugin)... and deleted all directorys and files in /usr/lib cause there were still somes... After I installed only the package firefox and now is working. I will go on now by installing the plugins provided in the repositories and after I will restore my profile. -- Firefox fails to start - Cutting Log https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/208048 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
