1138129 - Firebug keeps crashing in Firefox 36

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(DevTools :: General, defect)

Description

[owenw4rd]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:36.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/36.0
Build ID: 20150222232811

Steps to reproduce:

With the latest FF release 36, FireBug keeps crashing while debugging javascript. I had to quit using Firefox and switch to IE 11 to debug my javascript.

The crash happens when doing a clean refresh (Ctrl-F5 or Shift-Ctrl-R) of a web page while debugging.

Maybe this should also be reported as a FireBug bug. I'm using the latest version of FireBug.




Actual results:

With the latest FF release 36, FireBug keeps crashing while debugging javascript. 

The FF crash happens after doing a clean refresh (Ctrl-F5) of a web page while debugging.

I had to quit using FF and switch to IE 11 to debug my javascript. Maybe this should also be reported as a FireBug bug. I'm using the latest version of FireBug.


Expected results:

The previous versions of FF (< 36) did not have this problem. FF 36 introduced this problem or incompatibility with FireBug. I'm using the latest version of FireBug.

Hello Owen Ward, Thanks for reporting this issue. Do you get same issue in latest released version of firefox. I would request you to upgrade to the latest version of Firefox in case you have not done so. Please let us know if you see this problem even on the latest version.

This issue should really be reported to the Firebug project.  There's also not enough data to go on at the moment.  If more info is available that points to the built in tools and not Firebug, please reopen.
