I am trying to create new profile via Terminal for firefox and am using this command:
firefox -createprofile 'profile'
It looks like everything is fine, but I can't find any new file by using ls | grep "profile"
While using
./firefox -profilemanager
Firefox is openning on blank page, by checking in help -> Troubleshooting information -> Profile directory, there is always same directory / name of folder.
By using
firefox -profile "profile"
the same thing happens.
I have tried to use uppercase version as well as lowercase; both work and open Firefox. What am I doing wrong?
I tried using firefox -P
or -p , there is also no visual difference (as how is firefox acting, where redirecting and what profile applying)
Also by using ls ~.mozilla/firefox
and opening with VI profiles.ini , I can see that there is only one profile there (which was created by default)
My current directory is /home/username/.mozilla/firefox
.
