None of these with the 52.6esr. Very curious, since no plugins are allowed + Flash has been completely removed. No idea how this relates to the pasteboard, if that's what this means, since this log spamming occurs without pasting or going near the clipboard.

Perhaps a clue: In addition to the log spamming, plugin container also sometimes crashing. No idea what kicks this off, as I'm never going near any plugins--all disabled anyway. Always the same thread. Process: plugin-container [2142] Path: /Applications/Firefox Q.app/Contents/MacOS/plugin-container.app/Contents/MacOS/plugin-container Identifier: org.mozilla.plugincontainer Version: 1.0 Code Type: X86-64 (Native) Parent Process: ???

New information: the OS in which this log spamming behavior occurs is MacOS 10.11.6/El Capitan. Unable to reproduce this behavior with 10.12.6/Sierra. So in order to reproduce and/or investigate, OS must be 10.11.6/El Capitan. It appears there may be some possible incompatibility with 10.11.6 and Quantum, which may explain this possible bug.

After I opened Firefox browser from the console, the log spamming appeared. However, in the "about:support" page the User agent was correctly displayed. Considering the displayed errors from the console, I think the suitable component for this issue is: Core:: Plug-ins.

Hi Cristina, thanks for looking into this. >>Considering the displayed errors from the console, I think the suitable component for this issue is: Core:: Plug-ins. So where do we go from here? Any ideas on how to resolve this? As I said, I have completely removed Flash from my system, and no other plugins are allowed. Btw, perhaps a small misunderstanding: my comment that my user agent was not being properly displayed (User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.11; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0)was related to having first posted this issue from my esr, not the 58. Subsequently, posted from the 58, hoping that the user agent would now be updated. Of course, considering that I was first posting from the esr, that first user agent was accurately displayed. Current v.58.02 build is 20180206200532, with user agent Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.11; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0 Thanks.
I don't think plugins is the right component, this looks like native MacOS clipboard handling.

Does this reproduce after restarting the system? Does this reproduce with a new user account? If yes, could you try running mozregression to see when this started happening? If you have never run mozregression before, simply run these three commands in a Terminal window: sudo easy_install pip sudo pip2 install -U mozregression mozregression A number of Firefox versions will open in succession to narrow down when this started occurring. Simply type "good" or "bad" in Terminal based on whether or not a build reproduces the bug. [1] https://mozilla.github.io/mozregression/

I haven't tried after a reboot but this does occur when switching to a brand new Guest account. I see a similar but not exactly the same message with Firefox 56.0.2: 2018-03-13 15:36:05.176 plugin-container[72288:1755125] *** CFMessagePort: bootstrap_register(): failed 1100 (0x44c) 'Permission denied', port = 0x9e37, name = 'com.apple.tsm.portname' See /usr/include/servers/bootstrap_defs.h for the error codes. 2018-03-13 15:36:05.176 plugin-container[72288:1755125] *** CFMessagePort: bootstrap_register(): failed 1100 (0x44c) 'Permission denied', port = 0x531b, name = 'com.apple.CFPasteboardClient' See /usr/include/servers/bootstrap_defs.h for the error codes. 2018-03-13 15:36:05.176 plugin-container[72288:1755125] void __CFPasteboardSetup() : Failed to allocate communication port for com.apple.CFPasteboardClient; this is likely due to sandbox restrictions I can try to bisect when that switched over to the messages from comment 0 (which I also see with an up-to-date Nightly) if that's helpful. Maybe this is stating the obvious, but I think most users never see this since they don't run the browser interactively from the command line. Its getting to be a distraction during development though.
Yes, a bisection would be helpful here. Thanks!

Interesting. In comment 0 you mentioned that this does not happen in 52.6esr. Could you verify this one more time? Have you installed any kind of third-party pasteboard management application or similar recently?

--Have never seen this in the 52esr, now 52.7. Checked again, still none of these. --Have been running clipboard manager, Jumpcut all the while. Just disabled it and tested again in the 59: same messages appearing, disabled or not.

(In reply to buggmozz from comment #14) > --Have been running clipboard manager, Jumpcut all the while. Just disabled > it and tested again in the 59: same messages appearing, disabled or not. I believe this might be an incompatibility with one of these two apps. It may be that disabling isn't enough to verify this. Even uninstalls may leave things behind that makes it hard to verify.
Can't get to this right now, but will remove the app + any lingering files, using FindAnyFile http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/ set to root. That should nuke any trace of it. HOWEVER, haven't several others here said that they are able to reproduce this? Were they all running Jumpcut or some other clipboard manager?
I am experiencing this and I don't have Jumpcut (or any other clipboard-related applications that I know of) installed
Jumpcut and all related files trashed, same behavior in logs.
(In reply to Andrew Swan [:aswan] from comment #17) > I am experiencing this and I don't have Jumpcut (or any other > clipboard-related applications that I know of) installed Could you run the bisection that you suggested in comment 8? This could be helpful.

Hm. I was running an older MacOS (10.11 I think?) and after upgrading to 10.13.3 this went away. So I'm no longer able to do a bisection but hopefully that piece of information is useful...

As I pointed out earlier, I'm not getting these console logs when booted to my Sierra, 10.12.6--booted from an external drive. Still exclusively running 10.11.6, and not yet ready to move to 10.12. If a fix isn't forthcoming any time soon for this purported bug, besides getting another year of an Apple supported OS, an additional reason to move to Sierra sooner rather than later.

Hello Andrew, I've tried to find a regression range, but in the console I could not see the log spamming. Is there a way I can see the log, while using the Mozregression tool?

As I mentioned above, I only experienced this when using an older version of MacOS. If that's not sufficient to reproduce it, I'm afraid I don't have any more information...

Thanks, Stephen! This information helped me to find a regression window, using the Mozregression tool. Here are the results: Last good revision: cfdf38e0d9befe93c007b5afdba802e924ba4774 First bad revision: 13ad384d29fb8ebfb402782fac64da37f6091e4a Pushlog: https://goo.gl/gkKYLv From the pushlog, it seems that bug 1397956 might have caused this. Bill, can you please take a look at this issue?

Bill is inactive. As the reviewer of bug 1397956, maybe :mccr8 knows where to direct this bug to? Note that this does not seem to affect macOS 10.12 or 10.13.

Bug 1397956 backed out a change that was only in the tree for a short amount of time: bug 1384336. So I'd expect that we've had these messages for a long time, then bug 1384336 landed on 2017-08-10 and briefly disabled the messages, and then bug 1397956 landed on 2017-09-14 and the messages came back. We want to re-land bug 1384336 at some point but we'll need to do the work to fix the regressions it caused.
