Title: [Solved]Search in wiki with Firefox 72.0 (64-bit)
Post by: qinohe on January 07, 2020, 06:38:02 pm

Hi all, is anyone else having problems to use the search function in the wiki with the newest Firefox?
All was working but since today's upgrade I'm not able to use the search anymore.
Just enter a search like 'dns' or 'api' keeps searching forever.. :(
Have also tried to open the files with SeaMonkey and it still works as supposed to.

Now the 'strange' thing is, I have also build the newest docs and opening them with Firefox and using the search works, very odd...
Oh and there are no blockers on FF all are turned off.

Thanks, mark

No, Firefox 72 (64 Bit, Linux) works fine - with addons like µBlock origin and HTTPS Everywhere.

Hmm, I use uMatrix which I had turned off..
The cache for FF was cleared.

I could check if Suricata is doing something nasty and check if turned off, though I have my doubts that's it.

The only thing I can also try is my DNS which runs on a VLAN, I also doubt that's it since it works fine for everything else..

Thanks for investigating @fabian
I'll be back  ;D

Greetings, mark

Well I didn't expect one of these to be the problem, nothing changed.
Created a new user created a new env. (Arch Linux) still the problem persists.
So it may be an Firefox on Arch problem...

Now don't get me wrong, it's not a problem for me personally I know my ways to work around this.
But it is anoying that nothing I try to solve it with seems to work.

It isn't Firefox on Arch. That setup is working fine with me as long as I don't let NoScript block opnsense.org.

Thanks, but as I said in #1 no blockers are running, nothing, I also turned off Suricata, no success unfortunately.

I am also using Arch. So you cannot blame it.

After a reboot everything works as it should. 8)
I have never needed to reboot to use a updated Firefox.
I use Firefox jailed with uMatrix, that also works well.
The only thing I can think of now being the 'problem' is PSD(profile sync daemon) (see) https://github.com/graysky2/profile-sync-daemon (https://github.com/graysky2/profile-sync-daemon).
I will take extra care the next time Firefox has an update, if the problem ever occurs again.

Greetings, mark

edit: psd was definitely not the problem, in fact,it was solved with the help of graysky(see link)
