Hey All,

Has anyone had trouble with Firefox/Thunderbird?

When I log on if I start Thunderbird first then I can't start Firefox.
Clicking on a link in an email fails to start Firefox.

If I start Firefox before Thunderbird then hyperlinks in emails open a
page in the existing Firefox instance.

Other users on this same machine are having the same problems.

This has been happening for that last several days.

CentOS release 6.6 (Final)

Linux mushroom.patch 2.6.32-504.1.3.el6.i686 #1 SMP Tue Nov 11 16:30:09
UTC 2014 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Thunderbird 31.2.0
Firefox 31.2.0

        I wonder if /var/log/messages has anything useful about this.
Well, it has this to say:

We were seeing these messages for a user. It was related to his history
file in his profile.  So I imagine it could be a corrupted db file under
the users profile.

Phi.
In the past I've used this technique, however on this occasion the user just blew away his history files

Use the following process to unlock a sqlite db, ensure firefox is stopped first:-

DBNAME="db.sqlite" # substiture db for name of file
echo '.dump' | sqlite3 $DBNAME > $DBNAME.dump
cat $DBNAME.dump | sqlite3 DBNAME.2
mv $DBNAME $DBNAME.orig
mv $DBNAME.2 $DBNAME
