I also tried starting from a terminal; no error messages until the graphical user interface came up with the error message that I already posted.

I've also renamed the .mozilla folder, started with a different profile and tried starting in safe mode all of this still gave me the error message.

--enable-chrome-format=jar should fix the issue for you.

This is essentially a dup of 620931, omnijar support is required in xulrunner if firefox is built with omnijar support.
