[Bug 557385] New: Firefox can only open the homepage, no other page from other servers because (probably) of a language pack
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=557385 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=557385#c0 Summary: Firefox can only open the homepage, no other page from other servers because (probably) of a language pack Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Firefox AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jean.cayron@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); wa; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5 fter having installed an experimental language pack made by myself (http://walotux.walon.org/firefox/walloon_language_pack-3.5.0.1.20091111.1-fx...) I tried to uninstall it to install a more up to date version. After uninstalling it, I got a message of XML error (sorry, I haven't copied it). Sinds then, I can't open anymore any other page but the homepage. I start with for example firefox.com and I open a page from another server adress, it gives a page from mozilla "404 not found". If I start with openSUSE (command "firefox http://www.opensuse.org"), it will open opensuse.org but when trying after firefox.com, it gives an error page from opensuse.org... I've uninstalled all the walloon language pack and set it back tu en-US. I've tried to remove the profile in ~/.mozilla/firefox, it doesn't help. I've created a new profile it doesn't change anything I've tried in safe mode, it doesn't help I've uninstalled and reinstalled the RPM, to change to Firefox 32bit (suse's RPM) but it doesn't change anything. When I try with another Linux user (without installing the addon) it works without problem. I've tried to reproduce it with the new package on the official build Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); wa; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5 and it doesn't reproduce it. I'll try with a fresh installation of openSUSE on a virtual box. Everything happens like my addon changed something in a config file in the user home folder but that's not located in ~/.mozilla/firefox/ Something strange, another tester in Windows XP has reported a similar problem, after uninstalling it and reseting the locale to fr, het got this: http://walon.org/pipermail/linux-wa/attachments/20091119/4d2cedc7/attachment... and had problems with "downloading some attachments from gmail and with many other pages". He says that it works well now. The message he got looks very similar with the one I had the first time I restarted FF after uninstalling language pack. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Firefox (in openSUSE 11.2?, may buggy on other platforms, to try) 2. Install Walloon language pack from here: http://walotux.walon.org/firefox/walloon_language_pack-3.5.0.1.20091111.1-fx... 3. Set general.useragent.locale in about:config to "wa" 4. Restart FF, it should be in Walloon. 5. Go to Usteyes->Pacaedjes and uninstall the Walloon language pack, don't close the addon window 6. Go to about:config and reset general.useragent.locale in about:config to "en-US" 7. Click in the addon window on the button "Restart Minefield" (or "Renonder Minefield", in Walloon) Actual Results: You get an XML error on the about:config page and when you try to open another page than the homepage, it doesn't work (as described above). Next time you launch FF, it should open about:config without problem but the other problem will persist Expected Results: No XML error message and to be able to navigate to more than one webpage. Notice that in the language pack that makes the problem there were one error: the file wa.jar was put on the root of the archive and not in the folder chrome/. I have since corrected it in an updated version. Another problem in that language pack is that I enabled the branding translations, it's why Firefox become Minefield. I also corrected it later. I've also installed and uninstalled the language pack in Moblin and it doesn't make any problem. Please help me to get my FF work correctly and to identify the problem want I want to distribute that language pack more widely. Thanks. PS: I reported the bug in Mozilla's bugzilla (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=530029) but I fill it here because I think it may be platform related. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I already tested it. KDE proxy settings was "manually proxy config", but no proxy was set. If I change back firefox to "use system proxy settings", I get strange behavior again. After setting KDE to "direct internet connect" it is working too.
This makes one wonder what KDE actually expects to happen if you say you want to use the specified proxy but then don't specify a proxy... I though the default in KDE was to use http_envvar. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I must just say that the problem, resolved for me by upgrading, wasn't linked with the proxy, I don't use one, I use direct adsl. The problem is maybe more complex than that.
But what is true is that it occured in KDE and not in IceWM.
There is no way to prove that your issue wasn't the same or similar thing. Nobody here uses a proxy but for the analyzed systems the proxy settings were confused on KDE level. So currently we can only assess this issue. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I can confirm that changing the proxy setting in Firefox solves the issue. I can now connect again, and I am very happy about that!
Collin if you did not change KDE proxy settings, can you please attach(not copy & paste) your .kde4/share/config/kioslaverc -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
