Firefox ESR 38.0.1 crashes on running selenium

[Jagannath]

I am trying to run selenium test cases on Firefox ESR 38.0.1. I am using selenium-server-standalone-2.42.2.jar.

As I run java program ,
1. Firefox crashes.
2.  java throws the following exception:
org.openqa.selenium.firefox.NotConnectedException: Unable to connect to host 127.0.0.1 on port 7055 after 45000 ms. Firefox console output:

Tried with other versions of selenium jar file. Still Firefox crashed.
