Until recently the Firefox docs described how to use the CDP-based Remote Agent at [this url](https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/remote/cdp/Usage.html), now defunct. Here is the latest archive version I can find from the end of last year: https://web.archive.org/web/20241126214503/https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/remote/cdp/Usage.html

One usage example looked like this:

% firefox --remote-debugging-port DevTools listening on ws://localhost:9222/devtools/browser/7b4e84a4-597f-4839-ac6d-c9e86d16fb83

I have tried the same but get no websocket address returned:- ``` % firefox-esr Mozilla Firefox 128.11.0esr ``` ``` % firefox-esr -h ... ... --remote-debugging-port [<port>] Start the Firefox Remote Agent,

                    which is a low-level remote debugging interface used for WebDriver
                    BiDi and CDP. Defaults to port 9222.

... ... ```

`% firefox-esr --remote-debugging-port` command exits with nothing returned

I have `remote.active-protocols` set to 3 in my Firefox prefs.

Please advise how I get the Remote Agent to return a websocket address for use with BiDi with FF 128. My OS is Debian-based Linux.

TIA

I am a DNS administator at my employers and notice that on my employers network that aus3.mozilla.org and aus4.mozilla.org seem to be returning NXDOMAIN both with our on prem DNS and via the public dns providers when a browser attempts update it can fail.

Have other Australian users reported such behavior and are these hosts still valid

I'm using Firefox ESR 128.10.1esr on Kali, and I'm encountering an issue where the 'Refresh Firefox' option is missing from the ☰ → Help → Troubleshooting more Information. This is preventing me from restoring Firefox to its default settings. I've already tried the following:

   Restarting Firefox

   Clearing the startup cache

   Confirmed there are no extensions installed

None of these steps have fixed the issue. I need a way to reset Firefox ESR to factory defaults, but I can't find an option to do so. Attached is a screenshot of the Troubleshooting Information page.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,

We are trying to automate updating Firefox ESR from 32bit to 64bit. There seems to be an issue with getting user's profiles to properly migrate for ESR. If we do a plain 32bit uninstall and 64bit installation, a new "default-esr-1" profile gets created (which is expected behavior from these Mozilla docs for new installs). But, when we set the MOZ_LEGACY_PROFILES=1 policy, this reverts to using the "default" profile instead of "default-esr" profile that was previously in use.

Are there any known ways around this which does not require user intervention to manually change back to the "default-esr" profile?

Thank you

We're exploring adopting a default deny policy for Firefox extensions in our enterprise. However when I tested this by creating a custom policies.json Firefox unexpectedly removed all extensions for me, including the ones I thought I had allow listed. Here is my policies.json but just keeping in the Facebook Container add-on to illustrate:

{

   "policies": {
       "ExtensionSettings": {
           "*": {
               "blocked_install_message": "Only approved Firefox extensions can be installed, please email your request to itdept@example.org",
               "installation_mode": "blocked",
               "allowed_types": ["theme", "dictionary", "locale"]
           },
           "@contain-facebook.xpi": { "installation_mode": "allowed" }
       }
   }

}

What I would like is to to allow pre-approved extensions (including if they already are installed) and all other types of add-on, but remove and prohibit installation of unapproved extensions.

Can anyone assist, please?

In /Library/Preferences/org.mozilla.firefox.plist:

``` <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>EnterprisePoliciesEnabled</key> <true /> <key>ExtensionSettings</key> <dict> <key>cloudmetering@snowsoftware.com</key> <dict> <key>install_url</key> <string>https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SnowSoftware/agent-firefox-extension/refs/heads/main/cloudmetering-v1.2.3.xpi</string> <key>installation_mode</key> <string>force_installed</string> </dict> </dict> </dict> </plist>```

In about:policies: {"cloudmetering@snowsoftware.com":{"installation_mode":"blocked","install_url":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/SnowSoftware/agent-firefox-extension/refs/heads/main/cloudmetering-v1.2.3.xpi"}}

The plist file did read "blocked" at one point, but it no longer does. Why isn't firefox picking up the new value from the plist file? Restarting/refresing FF has not helped so far.

I confirmed this problem on two separate computers(windows 7 and windows 11) and version 115.23.0 of Firefox ESR can not properly play streams on twitch.tv

Audio will play, but the video does not load with only a black screen with question mark icon replacing video feed.

Hello,

Our organization is attempting to implement a Conditional Access policy that restricts access to certain websites to Intune joined devices only. The error message mentions that I need to enable a setting from within Firefox called Windows SSO, mentioned here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/windows-sso. This setting is already enabled and I am still getting an error.

Is there anything else that could be causing this?

Добрый день Есть ли возможность установить плагин .xpi в mozilla через cmd. AltLinux. Конечно я уже прочел статьи существующие. Не сработали рекомендации. Можно ли сделать вывод что Firefox 128.0 ESR не поддерживает установку плагинов через cmd? Если да, то можем ли мы сослаться на официальный ответ firefox ? Благодарю за рекомендации.

Trying to block www.share365.net but it's not working

 "policies": {
     "WebsiteFilter": {
         "Block": [
           "*:share365.net",
           "*:www.share365.net",

I am going to deploy Firefox ESR in an environment where the default topsites provided by the top-sites.json included in omni.ja (namely Wikipedia, youtube and reddit) are not desirable, and I want to provide my own. I cannot find a way to do so.

Setting the browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.default.sites preference through the policies.json file does not work (the pref gets loaded but it does not influence the actual default topsites, which is not surprising since the default value of this pref has nothing to do with the actual default topsites).

Note that I am not seeking to remove the topsites from the homepage entirely (as would be achieved through the FirefoxHome/TopSites policy), I want to change the default ones.

I tried creating my own top-sites.json in /lib/firefox-esr/browser/ where omni.ja resides, but to no avail.

Hi, we use Firefox 128.9.0esr (64bit) on about 6000 workstations. We redirect the stored bookmarks on a personal network drive for each user. For that we use these settings via Windows group policy:

browser.bookmarks.file = P:\Firefox\Bookmarks browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML = true browser.places.importBookmarksHTML = true

For some time the automatic export/import with that settings above does not work any more. When I close Firefox on workstation A, the bookmarks seem to be exported correctly in that export-file (check the file via editor). But when I use another workstation B an start Firefox, the exported file does not import on startup. But this worked fine in the past.

I found out, that the switch "browser.places.importBookmarksHTML" is obviously automtically set to false when I have startet Firefox (checking with about:config). I dont know if it is correct.

Any suggestions? Maybe it's a new bug?

Thanks Malte

I am trying to manage Firefox browser for our users with MDM. On doing so, I can't able to get expected output on blocking the camera access for certain websites with the following OMA-URI.

./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Firefox~Policy~firefox~Permissions~Camera/Camera_Block

I can add websites in allow section and even lock the setting so that the users can't change. But facing issues with blocking camera access.

Is there any place where I can see the log if there are any error encountering by any chance? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

We have Firefox deployed and managed through Intune/Endpoint and all works well but every device has an error with this line of the policy:

UserMessaging_FirefoxLabs [./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Firefox~Policy~firefox~UserMessaging/UserMessaging_FirefoxLabs] STATE Error SOURCE PROFILES Source Profile Mozilla_Firefox_Configuration ERROR CODE 0x87d1fde8

The error code is the same on all devices and is the only one present in on each device config.

Does anyone have any idea what the issue and resolution would be?

Thanks, Matt

I am trying to reach an internal company website ([URL]), with a certificate chain rooted in a company certificate authority. This works fine in Chrome, and worked in Firefox on my previous computer. But i recently got a new machine, and something somewhere is not quite right. I get an error message looking like this (between the ~~~s):

~~~ Someone could be trying to impersonate the site and you should not continue.

Web sites prove their identity via certificates. Firefox does not trust [URL] because its certificate issuer is unknown, the certificate is self-signed, or the server is not sending the correct intermediate certificates.

Error code: SEC_ERROR_UNKNOWN_ISSUER

View Certificate ~~~

If i click on the error code, i get these details:

~~~ [URL]

Peer's Certificate issuer is not recognised.

HTTP Strict Transport Security: false HTTP Public Key Pinning: false

Certificate chain:

[certificate]

[certificate]

[certificate]

~~~

If i click 'View Certificate', i get a chain of three certificates:

1. Subject common name = [certificate]
2. Subject common name = [certificate]
3. Subject common name = [certificate]

If i go to Settings > Privacy & Security > View Certificates > Authorities, i can find both the [certificate] certificates. As far as i can tell, they are identical - i can open the certificate from 'View Certificate' and the corresponding one from the certificate manager and flip between tabs, and all the details are the same.

I am using Firefox 120.0, via a flatpak, on Ubuntu 22. I have given the flatpak access to /etc/ssl/certs, where my company's internal CA certificates are located.

To me, this seems like it should all work. The server has a certificate signed by an internal CA, which is signed by another internal CA, and both those internal CA certificates are in my certificate manager. So what is going wrong? Is there any way i can debug this?

Hi, I keep getting a message that I should update to a newer version of Firefox on Ubuntu. The problem is: I click on the install for 64 bit button, A ...tar.xz file downloads to my desktop, and the process ends completely. How to proceed?

Thanks, Ildikó

Hello everyone,

We have been using Mozilla Firefox ESR (32-bit) in the organization for several years. For installation on our clients, we use "Matrix42 Empirum" as the software distribution tool. All it does is install the MSI of Firefox.

However, for quite some time now (almost 2 years), we have been facing an issue where some installations are marked as successful (Error code 0), but once the MSI installer is automatically closed, files like "firefox.exe" disappear from the installation directory – despite the installation being marked as successful.

The problem doesn’t always occur, but a repair attempt usually resolves the issue.

In addition to Empirum, we also use Defender for Endpoint, but we couldn’t find any clues there.

Is this problem known, or are we the only ones experiencing it?
