chromium will not start

I recently installed the chromium browser on F38.
It won't start.  At least it won't stay started very long.

When I start it from the command line, I get this:
$ chromium-browser
[297210:297210:1123/181637.109041:ERROR:process_singleton_posix.cc(353)] The profile appears to be in use by another Chromium process (2215) on another computer (localhost-live.midcoip.net). Chromium has locked the profile so that it doesn't get corrupted. If you are sure no other processes are using this profile, you can unlock the profile and relaunch Chromium. [297210:297210:1123/181637.109237:ERROR:message_box_dialog.cc(146)] Unable to show a dialog outside the UI thread message loop: Chromium - The profile appears to be in use by another Chromium process (2215) on another computer (localhost-live.midcoip.net). Chromium has locked the profile so that it doesn't get corrupted. If you are sure no other processes are using this profile, you can unlock the profile and relaunch Chromium.


I don't even know what that means.
What profile?
What is Midcontinent doing with it?  How?
Why is a "profile" even involved?
Who is making money off my "profile"?  How?
I have no idea how I would unlock my "profile".
I suppose the claim will be made that it is for security.

Grrr.
