Long-term reliability issues? #31

Description

I have been running FF-Remote-Control on 40 instances of Firefox on 33 different Linux computers. These have been running as a digital signage system and they are up 24/7. It works GREAT almost all the time. But, these issues have arisen over the last several months. (All are running 2.0.0.1-signed)

I'll get one of these two return values when I send it some routine javascript (generally, redirecting it to a new web page):

  • ["error", "timed out while waiting for reply"]
  • ["error", "request aborted: tab navigated or closed"]

The work-around I have developed for both of these is to restart my application and the firefox instance.

Generally, the instances of Firefox do not have user input, so it seems unlikely that someone actually closed the tab. But I cannot rule this completely out since I was not present when this happened.

Can you give me any insight into these issues?
