1554131 - Firefox crashes when doing Selenium automation tests in Docker on Linux

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1554128

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[u639570]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/64.0.3350.0 Iron Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

• Environment: Docker on Linux, based on image maven:3-jdk-8
• install firefox-esr (also tested with v68.0 and 68.0b4)
• use selenium to do browsertest in headless mode (as I am in Docker)
• open a URL in selenium (sorry, cannot provide the login as it is an internal site)

(The same code and URL work when executing the tests in Windows)

Actual results:

• on one specific page, firefox crashes MOST of the time (~40% of the cases) and core dumps.

I see a couple of messages in the console:
1558698423222 mozrunner::runner INFO Running command: "/usr/local/firefox/firefox" "-marionette" "-headless" "-foreground" "-no-remote" "-profile" "/tmp/rust_mozprofile.s1nHBk81SQVN"
*** You are running in headless mode.

Expected results:

firefox should not crash
