Try starting Firefox with a new user:

Configuration Error: Failed to read the configuration file. Please contact your system administrator.

Thanks for any help!

You need to look further down to "Changes Over Time" to find the "Mac Directory Change" section where you will find the path I posted. 

Mac Directory Change

Due to Apple's stricter approach to software signing, as of about version 35 or so configuration files should now be placed relative to /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/Resources (so mozilla.cfg should go there, and autoconfig.js under /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/Resources/defaults/pref.)

mozilla.cfg needs to be in this folder on Mac:

  • /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/Resources

I'm unable to test this at the moment, but can you document it for me? According to the "Deploying Firefox in an enterprise environment" document at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Enterprise_deployment:

Create a .cfg file in the Firefox program directory. By convention, mozilla.cfg, but it can be any file name really.

which I take to mean the directory that contains "firefox.bin", as Step 1 in that same document says:

Find the Firefox program directory where the Firefox executable is located. For example, in Windows this is typically either C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox or C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox in macOS it is typically /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS

Thanks!
