INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not get the JVM manager

After googling, I found that the workaround documented here actually resolves the problem for me:

One thing I should note/add is that with the workaround noted above, I can't access or use any extensions, themes or plugins.  I just get a blank, broken window where those modules should normally be accessible.

Comment 2 Matěj Cepl 2009-07-20 16:14:18 UTC
Yeah, you just removed all your extensions. Running with -safe-mode would give you exactly the same, I guess, except it would be reversible. Moreover, this is effectively the same as bug 510377, except I guess the problem is in xulrunner (which is foundation of both).

Sorry to burst your bubble, but this still reproduces if I undo the workaround, and start with -safe-mode
