General :: Firefox Extension Not Loading?
Mar 2, 2010
I am developing an extension for firefox that enables users to chat with any others who happen to be browsing the same website at the same time. The xul file adds a tool bar with a button "Enable Chat" in the browser toolbox. when a user clicks the Enable chat button, the server initiates the chat. I went through many tutorials for extension development. They have helped. But I cant seem to get my extension up properly. Ill just put up the contents of my files for extension..
/home/neethusha/extensions/blaze (blaze is the name of the extension)
chrome/content/blaze.xul
install.rdf
chrome.manifest
[Code]....
I made the pointer to the extension in a file named "blazebutton @anywhere.com" and saved it in the firefox profile folder "/home/neethusha/.mozilla/firefox/d5ma3rr9.dev/extensions"
When i open the firefox in this profile, the extension is not loading...

I need to load php module without restart/reload apache, is there a way to do that, php has its option to load zend extension using '-z',
php -z <filename>
is there anyway because I need to load php module in runtime, that I don't want to loose the live running session.

I have no hair any longer on the sides of my head... after trying to deal with this problem. I have installed apache2 on a SuSE 11.3 box, with php5, php-pear, php-gd, etc, and I cannot get php-soap to get recognized. Do I need to see the soap.[URL]..When I run an installation wizard for the web app I am planning to host, and it says that there is no soap installed. When I place soap php-soap php5-soap in the APACHE_MODULES of /etc/sysconfig/apache2 (just to make sure at least one is the right name) and restart apache2 I get error messages that say, soap (or php-soap, or php5-soap) is not installed, so its being ignored. When I run my phpinfo.php script, I see PHP is working, and soap is one of the successful modules (!?).
So, why can't apache see soap? I can find my soap.so within /usr/lib/php5/extensions/soap.so (how would I successfully load that into Apache, when it starts? I have been using yum, so I went to yast, and installed php-soap again. restarted apache, and still no success.

I'm trying to make an extension that hopefully will remove the space bar scroll down function. So I've googled a bit and I've found this codes, that I've stored in a spacebar.js file
Code:
window.onkeydown=function(e){
if(e.keyCode==32){
return false;
}
};
Now for an extension to be valid so chromium would accept it I observed it needs a manifest.json file as in this tutorial [URL].. .So I've figured it out it should look something like this
[Code]...
The thing it's when I try to load unpacked extension in chromium I get a syntax error at line 6 column 7. Now I have to admit I'm not so good at scripting so anybody has any idea in how to fix this ?

I want to write simple firefox extension / script or anything to change URLs from HTTP to HTTPS for selected websites (e.g. facebook). That thing is actually bypassing some security checks in my network.
Can anyone tell me how to proceed? I can deal with language as far its C++ or Python (something else would just take more time that's all )

i just downloaded and installed opensuse 11.3 64 bit kde on my laptop.
all my hardware seems to be working fine.
i installed the drivers for my nvidia video card, and 3d is working along with kde's desktop effects.
i installed all my favourite firefox extensions including video downloadhelper downloadhelper - media download firefox extension an extension that can download videos from videos and other video sites.
all of my installed firefox extensions seem to be working except video downloadhelper.
when i try to download videos with it nothing happens.
previously i had opensuse 11.2 gnome 64 bit installed on my laptop, and the video downloadhelper extension worked fine.
i think this problem might have something to do with the way opensuse integrates firefox with kde.

I am trying to use the torbutton Firefox extension on xubuntu 9.10. I had it working when I first installed it, but now I can't get tor to start properly. When I try to run it using Vidalia I get the following error message:

I basically want to transfer firefox settings from one machine to another (or from one user to another) which includes some extensions. Instead of running the browser and installing the extension manually, I just want to copy and paste the relevant files.
I noticed that the folder name where the 'extensions' folder is present is different for different users. And just copying to that folder does not work. code...
I'm guessing there are other configuration files that I need to modify. Can someone tell me right way to go about this?

Need a few suggestions on how to remove context menu and menu (Tools, etc...) icons from within Firefox. I somehow removed all icons for every extension and addon within Firefox on Windows7, but forgot what I did. It would be nice to know how to do this on Ubuntu... migrated over to Vmware to test out and I always like a clean look.

After I click my firebox browser button on my unity launcher (or in applications) it does nothing. If I click it from my launcher it blinks 6 or 7 times then, does nothing.I have had this problem before, but a simple log-off log-on fixed it. I have even tried to restart and nothing changed. Is there something else I should try? Sudo killall firefox, says no processes, but I dont think this would be necessary after a restart even. What else can I do? Should I uninstall, then re-install, or is this unnecessary?

Reproducible with Firefox 3.6.6 (installed from Ubuntu 10.04 repository), on Dell D620, Ubuntu 10.04 Steps to reproduce:
1) start Firefox from command line "firefox -P"
2) create new Firefox profile on NTFS volume (mounted with NTFS-3g)
3) add NoScript extension (through extension manager Get Add-ons), restart Firefox as suggested
4) extension is not added to Firefox In case at step 2) profile is created on Linux volume, at 4) extension is added to firefox.I'm not 100% sure, but I think this bug is related to Firefox 3.6 update (no problems with Firefox 3.5). I did not make proper investigation, but I have feeling same problem applies to Thunderbird 3.1.This issue does not allow to share Firefox/Thunderbird profile on dual boot machine (Ubuntu/WindowsXP).

adobe was kind enough to release new versions of flash to deal with the recent 0day exploit which is all fine and good except they didn't release a 64bit version. as a matter of fact the 64bit alpha is no longer available for download and their forum for the 64bit version has been set to read-only.
i'm using slackware64 13.1. i began the process of getting nspluginwrapper working with the 32bit plugin but decided that it wasn't worth the hassle. rather than just dump flash altogether, am i making my box "safe enough" by using the flashblock extension for firefox? obviously, sites still can sniff for the flash version, but nothing will be displayed unless i click on it. basically i'd only be using it for stuff like videos and a few other major sites that should be trustworthy.

Why is it that the latest versions of Firefox being utilized with Ubuntu/Jaunty are so slow in completing the loading process ?

Ubuntu 10.04 not loading. Sticks at GRUB Loading message.
Read the other threads re OS not loading and GRUB. The talk about code goes over my head.
Local techie says the hardware is good. Tried reloading Ubuntu from CD. Tried loading the unmentionable OS.
Tried using Spotmau Powersuite.

With the last several updates to Firefox, loading pages from several different sites slows down to (slower than) a crawl - taking sometimes minutes. Most of the time, this occurs loading ads.
I don't remember what release this started with, but I didn't have problems before, and I don't have any problems loading the same web pages on IE8 (running on XP). This is the same on F12 and F11.
I have tried changing some of the securty choices, even tried blocking certain sites, but no luck.
Also, several times after a download, firefox freezes, although the rest of the desktop is okay.

On my computer, I'm using 11.3, KDE 4.4.4 and Firefox 3.6.8. Firefox is so s...l...o...w..... It's slow loading and it's slow browsing. Konqueror takes 1, maybe 2 seconds to load, and another second to load the home page. Firefox takes a good 30 seconds to load. The only message I get when loading from a terminal is about not using a shared database. I don't hear the disk churning like it would with a fragmented disk.
I can't believe everyone is having this response, the hue and cry would be enormous! Anything to try? Should I try loading another browser? I tried Opera on 11.2 and didn't really like it, had problems with a lot of content. What about Sea Monkey (Gad, I HATE words with monkey in them!) Konqueror won't show a lot of videos and I have problems using the back and forward buttons. I'll wait for fixes but in the meantime.

I was unable to access my Facebook account because a few days ago firefox stopped loading the page. I am using firefox 3.5.7 Ubuntu 9.10 with the latest (2.6.31-17) kernel. I have the Adblock Plus extention, but it has no effect on the issue (I tried to disable it).

When I start firefox the home google page will load and all is well. When I go to any other page (ex. cnn.com, gmail, etc) the page will load graphically, but then continue to load forever. At this point I cannot click on anything in firefox including the drop-down menus.I must force quit at this point.
I updated last night even though I was already using firefox 3.6. I had a problem with flash last time I updated. I reinstalled firefox and went back to firefox 3.5 without any success.This makes me think that the problem is something other than firefox.I am on a Toshiba Satellite L505-S5965 running ubuntu 9.10. I'd give you more information but when I click on system and go down to "About Ubuntu" it loads forever - this is another problem I need to fix. Ugh. I should never have updated

My Java plugin is not loading on Firefox. I need it to load, but FF doesn't even recognize Java is installed. It works on Google Chrome (which would be nice... except the plugin is buggy there)
Here's the background
* I'm running Firefox 3.6.3, through the repository on
Code: [URL]
* My process list includes:
Code:
23679 ? 00:00:00 firefox
23688 ? 00:07:31 firefox-bin
* I run NoScript, but I've had it work before w/NoScript, and everything is currently allowed. I'm fairly sure it has rather to do with FF 3.6.3.
* My about.config settings:
Code:
java.default_java_location_others;/usr/java
java.default_java_location_solaris;/usr/j2se
java.global_java_version_file;/etc/.java/versions
java.java_plugin_library_name;javaplugin_oji
* My directory settings:
Code:
patrick@patrick-laptop:/usr/lib/jvm$ ls
java-6-sun java-6-sun-1.6.0.15

I was using my old computer with ubuntu on it a few minutes ago, and when I loaded up firefox... All of a sudden the pac-man music started playing. There wasn't anything else open that could have caused that, and not even any other tabs up... It sounds like something a virus might do, but Linux is extremely resistant to that sort of thing.. Firefox works fine on my windows rig, so what the heck is going on?EDIT: I turned off javascript, and the noises stopped. But what javascript on firefox could be doing that, and why is it only on my linux?

Firefox starts to load, the window appears, but then hard drive keeps running for ever and ONLY thing that can be done is to click on Close Window, which will stop hard drive and get back to the desktop.
Suggestion posted to Delete ".mozilla/firefox" folder from my home directory worked initially,but the problem reappeared some time ago.
Other applications in Ubuntu seem to work OK.
How to correct this problem permanently - other than going to a different O.S.?

I have posted the following below on the Ubuntu Forums but have not got a satisfactory answer yet. My problem is as follows:I have installed Xubuntu on my machine to test a setup I want to to for my in-laws. Everything went well until I realised I have a problem loading some pages on Firefox.
There is no error message but they are just stuck on loading and finally timing out. I have then downloaded Opera and I am showing the same problem. A bit of research showed it could be a IPV6 issue. I therefore disabled ipv6 in about:config and also /etc/modprobe.d/aliases - 'alias net-pf-10 ipv6' to alias 'net-pf-10 off ipv6'. No change - still can't get those pages loaded.

I have tried everything I can think of to get the Java plugin working on Centos 5.5 and Firefox.I'm using the sun version of Java that I downloaded: jdk-6u18-linux-i586.rpm
I do have it installed already on a seperate partition that survives OS upgrades. Do I need to have the same version of Java in my alternatives dir, or will the Java browser plugin work regardless of which Java is installed on the system? Another way of expressing this: Is the Java browser plugin a standalone application that works independently of the system-installed Java version, or does the browser plugin rely on the installed JRE to function? So I have made a symbolic link from /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/@libjavaplugin_oji.so
to my Java plugin, under:
/usr/local/java/jdk1.6.0_18/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
There are actually 2 versions of the Java plugin - which one should I be using?
/ns7
/ns7-gcc29
I take it it's the non-gcc29 version? When I restart Firefox nothing is showing in the about :plugins window.I have disabled all the other mozilla plugins, just in case they are stopping the the Java plugin from loading.

Why do I keep getting this error when I try to search something on google. It happens when my query has around five or more words. If a search for just one or two words I don't get the error. I know it's not google because it happens with bing, msn, and yahoo too. The connection was reset The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make surethat Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Two very simmilar laptops connected to the same WiFi router loading the same web pages. Firefox on Windows does that for 3 secons, while Firefox on Ubuntu needs 1-3 minutes to load the same page. What could be the reason for this? Any idea how to fix it? The laptop with Ubuntu runs 10.04 LTS (lucid), Firefox is 3.6.10 and on any other WiFi network it loads the web pages really faster but why is much slower than Windows now?When testing the speed on URL...Ubuntu loads times faster than Windows. The WiFi router has been reseted. Firefox has been started in -safe-mode, both didn't help.

The basics: Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid x64 with Firefox 3.6.11 on a Thinkpad T61p 2gb ram/500gb HD. When I try to access my email via Squirrelmail, Firefox hangs on loading. If I stop the page from loading, wait a few minutes, then try again, I have a 50:50 chance of it loading this time.
I've run the update to make sure I have the most recent versions of software, but it still hangs. I've tried a few cursory searches, but find nothing referencing Lucid or that is otherwise current.

I'm having trouble with Firefox hanging. It takes at least two attempts to launch, having to force the initial blank page to quit. Often it will freeze my desktop when loading new pages, and I have to force quit. I've upgraded to 3.6.17 but no difference. The Mozilla help page suggests disabling add-ons to find the problem, but to no avail. Chrome works OK but I'd rather use Firefox.

Following this issue: [url] my laptop has been really slow. I think it's just the desktop, as nothing else appears to be that slow (except firefox loading).
I've looked in processes, and there are no obvious issues there. I still have all 1gb of my memory plugged in and I still have a 1.6ghZ processor (at that speed).
