[jira] [Created] (NETBEANS-634) Firefox freezes when first opened via F6

Riksoft created NETBEANS-634:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Firefox freezes when first opened via F6
                 Key: NETBEANS-634
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-634
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 8.2
         Environment: Linux Mint 18.3 64bit Mate edition
            Reporter: Riksoft


I have Firefox Developer Edition associated to Netbeans, so that pressing F6 or Shift-F6 it opens the webpage in the browser automatically (PHP projects... that is the only thing I use Netbeans for).

PROBLEM: if Firefox is already opened, no problem. If Netbeans has to open the browser by itself, after a while it freezes badly and I have to use pkill.

There is something wrong in the way Netbeans starts the browser or more probably in the way it manages the handle to the process. I've already reported this bug on the old Oracle website but no luck for years.

WORKAROUND: launching Firefox manually, before using F6/Shift-F6, solves the problem.
