1221467 - Session can not be restored after restart Firefox with Multiple Tabs Handler addon enabled

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: Session Restore, defect)

Description

[Chih-Hsuan Kuo [:tommykuo]]

Recently, I upgrade my developer edition to 44.0a2. After upgraded, Firefox restarted, and my session also disappeared. And then, I open lots of tabs again. I restarted Firefox again, and it also can not restore my session.

I noticed that the file "sessionrestore.js" doesn't exist in the profile folder. Now, I downgrade to 43.0a2 and rename "session-backup/previous.js" to "sessionrestore.js" to restore my session.

Are you using Tree Style Tabs, by any chance?

Comment 2

[Chih-Hsuan Kuo [:tommykuo]]

I have used it. But I disable it lots week ago.

Can you copy&paste the Browser Console data from a failed startup?

Comment 4

[arni2033]

me too

Comment 5

[Wayne Mery (:wsmwk)]

When I encountered problems with TST and restore, I had to *remove* TST, then update. So perhaps you need to remove TST. See bug 1215747

My sessionstore.js size was 1k after starting FF + TST.  And for some dang reason the backup directory had only a two week old session file.

By the way, I found I type the wrong filename in comment #1.

"session-backup/previous.js" => "sessionstore-backups/previous.js"
"sessionrestore.js"          => "sessionstore.js"

I see errors from the add-on "Multiple Tabs Handler". Could it be the culprit?

Oh!! You're right!! After I disable all addons, the session restoring works. And when I enable "Multiple Tabs Handler", it doesn't work!

[arni2033]

I confirm that w/ Multiple Tabs Handler disabled session restored correctly. Now I can use 44 again.
Other extensions I'm using (which, apparently, don't break session):
>   ChatZilla 0.9.92           true {59c81df5-4b7a-477b-912d-4e0fdf64e5f2}
>   ChatZilla ru-RU 0.9.92     true {bef7b617-797d-25c5-fc47-45efc3fe5bc4}
>   Remote XUL Manager 1.3.1   true [e-mail]
>   Stylish 2.0.2.1-signed     true {46551EC9-40F0-4e47-8E18-8E5CF550CFB8}
>   Tab Counter 1.9.9.1-signed true tabcounter@morac
>   tabTooltip 1.1.1-signed    true [e-mail]
>   uBlock Origin 1.3.1        true [e-mail]
BTW, I suggest to make this addon-compatibility bug & notify the dev of Multiple Tabs Handler & Tree Style Tabs (In case he's not tired of them yet).
