Ubuntu :: Manually Clearing Firefox's Cache?
Jul 1, 2011a few days ago i set my FoxyProxy settings to tor. I needed it to make a few raid boards on 4chan and those can get you banned if you post.
So anyways, i go on this forum about a phone and i accidentally refreshed the page, but i haven't switched from proxy to my default settings and so all of a sudden a message appeared "Sorry, ###### you are banned from this forum."
I tried clearing cache, cookies and whatnot through firefox' options but still i get that message, i installed Midori for a quick test and it seems to work there (I'm not banned) but never on firefox, even rebooted and still nothing.
I really hate the ads with Midori as i use Adblock for firefox.

View 2 Replies View RelatedProgramming :: Clearing Cache - Reading Data Upon Investigation
Apr 9, 2009I have been saving an XML file wherein I shall be reading data, if and only if the XML is present on Hard Drive. If same is not present, the code shall generate first and next time it shall simply read and not jump into writing part again and again. The issue that I am facing is, I am deleting the file manually going to that location, and checking whether it is reading the data, upon investigation, I found that it is really reading the data although the file is deleted.
I suspected that there may be some cache issue from where it is picking values, hence it fired the command
"sync; echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches"
But it is still doing the same pattern.
Ubuntu :: Not Automatically Starting Smbd (upstart Event)
Jan 9, 2011I have posted this somewhere here before and solved it but can't seem to find it. Just waisted 50 minutes googling and checking man pages for upstart. By the way; are man pages written by someone using their tows to type and getting beaten by a stick for every character they type? It seems missing a lot of info. Anyway, I know smbd is started with /etc/init/smbd.conf and there is a line like:
Code: start on local-filesystems Now it needs to be started on? (manually) I can't seem to find any useful information but did seem to find the upstart man pages a hundred times or so (same info same missing parts). I would love to get involved writing documentation for these things if only I know what I was doing.

View 7 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: Update Apt-cacher Cache Automatically?
Mar 4, 2010Is it possible to configure a cron script to update the packages in /var/cache/apt-cacher/packages? When a client machine updates a package, apt-cacher checks that it's cached package is up-to-date, and downloads a new version if it is not.
I'd like apt-cacher to check it's cached packages every night and download any updated ones, on the premise that since it exists in the apt-cacher cache, someone has that package installed and is going to want to update it. Is this possible? Does apt-cacher do this anyway, and I haven't noticed?

Mar 19, 2011I thought about moving the firefox cache directory to /tmp, as I am moving /tmp to the ram, since I just got an SSD, and move off this write-hungry feature.However, with Firefox 4 beta 12 (shipping with 11.4 x86_64), when I get in about:config, there is just no option browser.cache.disk.parent_directory, which you would use to configure this.I searched a bit and it seems that this is still intended to be on Firefox in v.4.I might as well downgrade to 3.x for the moment. I see there is an RC available of v.4, but no package of it ready in repos.By the way, any thoughts on putting the firefox cache on ram? I know it will flush it at reboot! But the alternatives are:
-leave it on ssd (wear it)
-put it on hdd (so slow)
-disable cache

View 6 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Relocating Firefox Cache To RAM Not Working?
Dec 17, 2010Firefox has this nasty habit of wanting to write to disk just as it's spinning down when I'm on battery...this is of course annoying because it'll probably shorten the life of the disk (it's doing it as I type this post!)
I figured that a solution to that would be to set FF's cache to be in a RAM disk instead of on the hard disk, so I tried following this guide on the Arch Wiki to set it up (the "Relocating only the cache" section). I followed it to the T, and it did nothing to change FF's disk usage. I even tried adding a /tmp entry in /etc/fstab that would supposedly mount /tmp on a RAM disk and pointed FF's cache to that...still no cigar.
My /etc/fstab:
Code:
#
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
devpts /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
[Code]....
What is it that I'm missing here? Is my fstab incorrect? Is there something else I need to do in FF? I've searched Google and LQ about this issue and couldn't find anything other than the same instructions found on the Arch Wiki and the /tmp fstab entry idea.
Fedora :: Firefox Doesn't Save Images From Cache?
Jul 27, 2010I have a weird problem with Firefox with the following scenario: When I view a picture from a website in the browser and the pictures gets deleted from the server (while I'm viewing it) - I can't save the picture to my hard drive. Firefox always tries to download the picture from the web-server although it's in the cache. Resulting in an image file which contains the HTTP 404 response from the server. *lol*

OpenSUSE :: Kmail To Firefox - Url Is Linked To Temp Cache Files
Aug 30, 2011I'm using Opensuse11.4 and have kmail and Firefox. When I click a url: link in kmail it opens a new tab in Firefox. The problem is that the url is linked to my temp cache files as this file:///var/tmp/kdecache-terry/krun/1589.0.ctt
The tab this opens has most of the link icons stripped out and the links to other parts of the website don't work and I get a "file not found" error and the link is to a file which doesn't exist file:///contribute.php3
This is only a minor annoyance as I can right click > copy the url and paste it to the address bar in Firefox then it works ok. I don't think it anything in either programme that's broken because this happened after an update to Opensuse 11.4 on my previous laptop and has happened again on my new laptop with a fresh install.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Save A Video From Firefox Page Cache?
Oct 17, 2010while i realize it's certainly taboo to download a lot of videos videos and similar without permission, and possibly illegal in some countries due to copyright, i have also been reading that the video is clearly buffered in the page casche, so technically is stored on your machine already, but is only stored in ram. how can i save it from my firefox page casche? some mitigating info is that i have poor web speeds, and an old machine, which is not using all of the 1gig of ram for some reason.

Software :: Redirecting APT Cache - Can Redirect Cache Of Apt To A Specified Folder Either On Command Line Or Via A Config Setting?
Jan 5, 2011I was laughing about klackenfus's post with the ancient RH install, and then work has me dig up an old server that has been out of use for some time. It has some proprietary binaries installed that intentionally tries to hide files to prevent copying (and we are no longer paying for support or have install binaries), so a clean install is not preferable.
Basically it has been out of commission for so long, that the apt-get upgrade DL is larger than the /var partition (apt caches to /var/cache/apt/archives).
I can upgrade the bigger packages manually until I get under the threshold, but then I learn nothing new. So I'm curious if I can redirect the cache of apt to a specified folder either on the command line or via a config setting?

Ubuntu :: Firefox Change Locales With Gnome Automatically
Apr 25, 2010I have my 10.04 set up with english (us and gb) as well as spanish languages installed.
I have firefox 3.6.3 compiled and installed for a 64 bit system. The firefox source code comes only with en-US locale, so I obtained en-GB.jar and es-ES.jar (as well as their manifests) from firefox.com and added them manually to my chrome directory.
This had worked in the past, when I'd logout and switch the gnome locale to es-ES firefox would come up in es-ES etc, but for some reason firefox will only start up in en-US now.
How can I fix this to match the desired behaviour?
Ubuntu :: Firefox - When Open Up A New Web Page It Does Not Automatically Allow To Scroll
May 31, 2010After installing a bunch of new updates with the update manager a few problems have popped up regarding the scrolling in firefox with the arrow keys. The first problem is that when I open up a new web page it does not automatically allow me to scroll. I have to first click the web page and then are the arrow keys enabled. The second problem that I have is that when I press the down arrow key to scroll down in the beginning it jumps down to the end of the page. The third and final problem is how it scrolls. For some reason a site in firefox acts like a word document. Instead of be the arrow keys controlling the scroll bar it controlls the little I symbol you see when typing.
It is amazing how annoying it can be when you can't scroll with the arrow keys. If nobody knows how to then I will probably just reinstall firefox. I have also just figured out that page up and down also do not work.
