https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=381733 Summary: Firefox 3 can't handle extensions Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 1 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Firefox AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: claes.backstrom@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- I can't install or uninstall extensions in firefox 3 beta 5. The uninstall don't give any error message. But when firefox is restarted the extensions still are on the add-ons list. Saying "This add-on will be uninstalled when Firefox is restarted" When I try to install a new extension I get no error but the extension don't show up on the add-ons list. When I try to install a updated version of an extension (the one installed don't work with firefox 3) I get: "Firefox could not install the file at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/downloads/file/26635/adblock_plus-0... because: Unexpected installation error Review the Error Console log for more details. -203" And after that it says: "This add-on will be updated when Firefox is restarted" But no matter how many restarts I do it still don't work. This is on an upgraded install from openSUSE 10.3 to openSUSE Factory. rpm -qa | grep -i firefox MozillaFirefox-2.9.95-5 beagle-firefox-0.3.5-9 rpm -qa | grep -i xulrunner mozilla-xulrunner190-1.8.99.5-7 mozilla-xulrunner190-gnomevfs-1.8.99.5-7 mozilla-xulrunner181-1.8.1.13-3 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But then all my old extensions is removed from the list but they are still in my firefox profile folder. For me this is no problem, but I can already now hear the screams from all users that updates from earlier versions of openSUSE. Is there no way we could migrate the users firefox profile to a new profile with a working extension.rdf, or update the extension.rdf file so this happens seamless for the users? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
