I have a larger number of users on the system that brought me to this bug, so restarting the NFS service isn't convenient as a regular solution.
I experienced this problem today for the first time in months. Jaunty client, feisty server, nfsv3. Firefox 3.0.13 failed after a power interruption to load bookmarks and other profile characteristics. I simultaneously experienced OpenOffice 3.1.0 (ppa) go into a file recovery loop. The following procedure restored expected behaviour to both firefox and openoffice, so it would seem to me to be filesystem based. I will post back if the situation recurs, but I'm not in a position to 'encourage it' with a live server. The misbehaving instances of firefox and openoffice were closed before tarballing., and required no unusual input after restarting them. history, bookmarks and certs all checked and functioning. tar cvf firefox-openoffice-rc.tar .mozilla/ .openoffice.org/ rm -rf .mozilla/ .openoffice.org/ tar xvf firefox-openoffice-rc.tar -- firefox locked or lost settings after crash https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343788 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
