DNN 6 and Firefox 6 - Constant Crash

Re: DNN 6 and Firefox 6 - Constant Crash

I'm also running into this, on both my test machine and staging/production server also. On my systems, I was unable to even logon to DNN without it crashing. I ended up downgrading back to Firefox 5, but it is hounding me daily to upgrade to 6. I've sent in several of the crash reports to Mozilla.

I would hope this is a priority to discover what is causing this issue, as more of the FF browsers are updated, the more prevalent this will likely become (bad for both DNN and Firefox). Has anyone else investigated at all or found any work arounds?

Cheers,
Greg

Same problems here. After administrative login, firefox crashes out. Did not happen, before I upgraded yesterday, from v5.6

Guys just remove your FF adons (or disable them). Nothing to do with DNN those errors.

Re: DNN 6 and Firefox 6 - Constant Crash

Thanks for the suggestion Costas. But doesn't that partially defeat the purpose of using Firefox? I live on the SEO addons, add blockers and code checkers. The addons are what make it so awesome, and help with designing every day.

Was one of the first things I did when troubleshooting it initially. Started Firefox in safe-mode with all add-ons disabled - unfortunately no success. I even did the faithful power-down and restart just to make sure there was nothing lingering from a past crash that might be causing the issue (also cleared the browser cache, etc, just to be sure). Other sites I had not encounter any problems (for the limited time I worked with FF6). Downgrading FF is what I ended up doing, and the crashes went away. So, while not specifically a DNN problem (clearly there is an issue with FF6), but something that DNN is pitching out appears to exasperate and reliably crash FF6 for whatever reason.
