1405454 - Window Maximise Fails (Firefox in Docker)

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Diego Molina]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.100 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

In the docker-selenium firefox node image, we have Firefox 56.0 installed with XVFB. We want the browser to be maximised with the Selenium instruction "driver.manage().window().maximize();"




Actual results:

The browser just hangs and it does not get maximised.

I installed manually into the docker container "fluxbox", a window manager, and after this the browser does not hang. Nevertheless, if I try to do this 10 times in a row (via the Selenium script), the browser hangs again.

I installed VNC into the container, and I can see how the browser hangs after receiving the maximise command. If I click myself on maximise while the browser is hanging, the following commands are able to continue.

More details about this can be seen here.

In addition, I installed Firefox Beta 57 b3, and this does not happen in that version. Would it be possible to add the patch that fixed this and release it sooner?


Expected results:

The browser should get maximised and not hang.

I just also tested it with Firefox Beta 57 b5, and it works as well.

Closing as WFM as the reporter says it works with 57 Beta 3 and 5.
