[Bug 1411290] Re: Firefox 35 does not restore previous session / tabs

 

Found the problem! Seems like a change of behaviour makes one of our
settings behave differently than before:

1. Open about:config
2. Change dom.indexedDB.enabled to true (which is default, but in my case it was set to false)
3. Restart the browser

This finally works. My open tabs from before are even restored!

working-in-firefox-35/

Title:
  Firefox 35 does not restore previous session / tabs

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On trusty I updated firefox to 35.0+build3-0ubuntu0.14.04.2

  After the update firefox no longer restored my previous session, it
  starts with a single blank tab. Also on the "New tab" window all tiles
  are empty. I gave a look to the sessionstore.js file and firefox isn't
  touching when closing.

  I tested with two different profiles and the same happened for both.

  Reverting to 34.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 got session store working
  again.
