[Bug 223881] New: Firefox takes ages to start, tries to autoconfigure when it should not.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=223881 Summary: Firefox takes ages to start, tries to autoconfigure when it should not. Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: RC 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Firefox AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: sinderbox+novell@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de This happens on a totally new user (no ~/.mozilla/) Since it looked like a network time out I found with lsof that it was trying to connect to port 80 on a remote firewalled machine at start up. If I spoof that IP to one of my web servers I see that ==> /var/log/apache2/error_log <== [Mon Nov 27 16:46:43 2006] [error] [client XX.XX.XX.XX] File does not exist: /srv/www/htdocs/wpad.dat I have no clue where that IP comes from (if anyone can enlighten me), though it is a dyn ip that belongs to my old ISP (my router is an extra opensuse 10.1 box). However, as I stated this is a new user in a lan machine. Firefox, as default, comes configured with direct network connection, and there is no reason to look for any network autoconfiguration file (wpad.dat). Much less from dubious origins. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

To check wpad.mydomain? That is the problem. But, should it check for it even if "Direct connection to the Internet" is used? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

"Direct connection to the Internet" should turn it off though. "System settings" doesn't IIRC. So you also get it if "Direct connection" is set in Firefox? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

I consider this pretty important and someone missed parts of the system-proxies.patch while porting it to FF2.0. I'm doing a testbuild now with the fixed patch and would attach a new patch here ASAP. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
