When I try to reserve a book on the library website I get a message : The requested document is not available in Firefox's cache. As a security precaution, Firefox does not automatically re-request sensitive documents. This just started happening yesterday, and until then it always worked.

Chosen solution

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.

"Clear the Cache":

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Please Update to the latest Firefox 18.0.x version.

The Firefox Firefox/11.0 version that you currently run is no longer supported with security updates.
