Seamonkey problem.

(1/2) > >>

JohnJS:
Using Seamonkey with TCL3.5.
The first time I used it after installation it worked fine. On subsequent attempts to use Seamonkey I get this message:

SeaMonkey is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing SeaMonkey process, or restart your system.

Can't figure a way to 'close' process. Tried restarting and also shutdown to no avail.
Also get this message after being shutdown overnight.

tinypoodle:
IMHO debatable if an app which explicitely calls the user for a restart of the system due to overcome its own bugs could be labelled as "malware" in a Linux environment...   :o

thane:
It's possible the process got saved to your backup and is getting restarted when you boot.

Try going to Control Panel/System Stats/processes to see if you can see a PID for the unwanted process. Then open a terminal and type "kill [PID]" (no brackets or quotes). If that works, exit all your apps and reboot again with backup. That should replace the old backup file so the process isn't restarted when you boot.

Mozilla browsers create a lockfile.
Lookin your .mozilla directory and delete it.
Next time close seamonky before shutting down or add the lock file
to .xfiletool.lst.

JohnJS:
Thanks thane and gerald_clark.

Will keep the info handy if the problem returns.

I removed and re-installed seamonkey three times and it seems to work fine now. Don't know if its me but seems to work faster than opera10 with my dial-up modem.
