526550 - Restore Session does not appear after crash with GreaseMonkey 0.8.20090920.2

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Session Restore, defect)

Description

[Bob Clary [:bc] (inactive)]

In my default profile, when visiting https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=410259 (warning - crash on load) I am not prompted to restore my session when restarting with Minefield/Mac OS X. It just starts right up and immediately crashes again. 

This is not a regression from bug 411930 since I confirmed the same behavior with a 20091030 build. Haven't tried safe-mode or disabling my extensions yet. Will do now.

Can you also check the value for some sessionstore prefs. In particular browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes. If that's set to -1, you'll never get the crash page and will always just restore. Also, if that pref has a very high value, then you'll get a lot of consecutive crashes before we show the crash page.

Note this was 1.9.3 only. Not 1.9.2.

GreaseMonkey 0.8.20090123.1 is the culprit. It is not compatible. I can imagine this being a problem for some people/extensions though...

browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes;1
browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo;10
browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo;3

Greasemonkey 0.8.20090123.1 and 0.8.20090920.2 both are bad and neither is compatible.

Is this bug still needed, given newer versions of greasemonkey?  20100408 works for me.
