RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 2 Martin Stransky 2016-02-08 17:15:31 UTC 
Interesting, you're actually running active e10s sessions. It is supposed to be disabled in ESR 45. Try to go to "Preferences" and disable "Multiprocess Firefox" or so in general panel.
Comment 3 Tomas Pelka 2016-02-08 17:50:59 UTC 
Also you are running firefox as root, is it what you want?

Not very secure IMHO.
Comment 4 Geetika Kapoor 2016-02-09 05:04:20 UTC 
I tried with non root user as well.Crash happens this time also.No change in output.

Comment 5 Geetika Kapoor 2016-02-09 05:07:04 UTC 
Going to  "Preferences" and disable "Multiprocess Firefox" or so in general panel.==> This works ..:) Thanks
Comment 6 Geetika Kapoor 2016-02-09 05:18:44 UTC 
so what i understand is multiprocess firefox feature  should be disabled for version 45 but it is enabled.This feature is meant so as to separate browser code from the websites code.
Comment 7 Martin Stransky 2016-02-09 08:20:37 UTC 
Yes, it's enabled in the testing version but will be disabled in the final one.
Comment 8 Geetika Kapoor 2016-02-16 13:37:11 UTC 
Verified the behaviour with firefox-45.0-0.10.el7_2.x86_64.rpm   and it worked as expected.
