984400 - Closing a tab causes Firefox to exit

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[murph]

I'm running aurora currently. 

When I close a tab (I always use CTRL+W), sometimes the browser exits.

On the console, this was printed:

WARNING: A completion condition encountered an error while we were spinning the event loop. Condition: Telemetry: shutting down Phase: profile-before-change2
WARNING: Unix error 17 during operation writeAtomic (File exists)

I'm not sure if that's related or not.

Same problem (last words of error message in German - my system language).

Maybe related: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=989156

OS: openSUSE 13.1 x86_64
Firefox: 29.0 x86_64 (shipped with openSUSE)

I've absolutely no idea.
Has been 7 years since and I totally forgot about this bug.
If you ask me, this can be closed.
