Hello! I installed Debian 8.11 (32bits) today on a VM and loaded it in a LXDE session and I can run Firefox 116.0.2. I have also tried 114.0.2 and it starts as expected, for me at least. Are you still encountering this problem? Thank you!

Hello Alexandru.
Now I use ff78esr (from Mozilla ftp) in folder /home/*/Programs/firefox/
My profile default-esr

ff115.1.0esr (from Mozilla ftp) in folder /home/*/ff/firefox/
lxterminal @:/ff/firefox$ ./firefox -p
Create new profile x115 and ff115esr start
Close ff115esr (process kill)
But if again <<<<<-----
lxterminal @:/ff/firefox$ ./firefox -p
choose profile x115 and ff115esr do not start <<<<<-----
(firefox-esr:10422): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion 'object->ref_count > 0' failed
(Into my system 3 profiles: default-esr(for ff78),default and x115)

This is my /home/*/ff/firefox/distribution/policies.json for ff115.1.0
{"policies":
{"AppAutoUpdate": false,
"DisableAppUpdate": true
}
}

If delete all profiles and lxterminal @:/ff/firefox$ ./firefox ALL GOOD.I have tried several times.
The problem exists only when there are several profiles - default-esr(for ff78),default and x115.

Thank you for the details. I tried the following steps:

1. Deleted all Firefox profiles by deleting .mozilla folder from /home/user/ and mozilla folder from /home/user/.cache
2. Opened 78 esr which created default and default-esr profiles.
3. Closed 78 esr and opened 115 esr
   Actual result: Build started as expected with a new profile called default-esr-1.

Note: I initially had problems starting 78 esr because I needed to install sudo apt-get install libatomicl. But now Firefox 78esr starts as expected.

This is now working?

I Closed 78 esr with profile called default-esr (deleting /home/user/.cache) and opened 115 esr
Build DO NOT started with a new profile called default-esr-1
But if delete all profiles and lxterminal @:/ff/firefox$ ./firefox 115esr START OK
My system upgrade from freexian.com and many packages are not the same as in debian 8.11

Today
I Deleted all Firefox profiles by deleting .mozilla folder from /home/user/ and mozilla folder from /home/user/.cache

lxterminal @:/ff/firefox$ ./firefox -p create profile default-esr-1 and 115.1.0esr start ok. Closed and again @:/ff/firefox$ ./firefox -p choose default-esr-1, 115.1.0esr DO NOT Start and My debian session is crash.

After
Again Deleted all Firefox profiles by deleting .mozilla folder from /home/user/ and mozilla folder from /home/user/.cache
lxterminal @:/ff/firefox$ ./firefox and 115.1.0esr start ok. 5 times start OK.

The problem is in the profile name.
