Today i faced a issue in starting firefox:
Firefox launcher will give me the below error and ps will not show me the output.
"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."
Solution:
Step 1. Find the Firefox profile directory, which will be under ~/.mozilla/firefox/[Profile name]/
(e.g) /home/sriram/.mozilla/firefox/0bk8nayy.default
Step 2. Remove the lock files (“lock” and “.parentlock”) found under the Firefox profile directory.
Step 3. Restart Firefox and it should work.
