Temporary WebExtension: after login firefox account. Got "Network request failed"

I am writing a WebExtension to communicate with a server using XMLHttpRequest.

I load this WebExtension temporarily by about:debugging. It works well if I do not login into my Firefox account. It can get data from the server.

But after logining into my account, it returns "xmlhttp.status: 0"  "Network request failed" immediately when I trying to do the same thing.

I removed all other add-ons and WebExtensions, But still I have this problem. I have to refresh firefox to make my extension work again.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Hi

I recommend that you ask about this on the add-ons community forum at https://discourse.mozilla.org/c/add-ons/35. The team there should be able to help.
