Does not work in FireFox v32 on OSX? #59
Comments
Confirmed. It also hangs on login in Firefox 32 on Linux. |
Same for Firefox 32 on Windows 7. |
Yeah something in ff32 has broken our extension. Happily accepting pull
|
Only if it was written in C++ :-) The way JS is growing, I might have to give up, surrender and learn it :O Sad days ahead LOL On Sunday, 7 September 2014, Vijay Pandurangan notifications@github.com

Well.. seems like Mitro is not maintained anymore? Firefox 32 is no surprise (beta 33 up now). It also did not work on Windows Firefox since the code arrived at GitHub. Probably one should stay away from using it :(. Definitely nothing for the casual user. Was this the reason to dump it to github? |
Sorry, Firefox updated something about how extensions work that broke Mitro. Unfortunately, we don't have the time to track this down ourselves. We are trying to hire a contractor to help us maintain Mitro. At the moment the only workaround is to downgrade to Firefox 31, or use Chrome. If anyone knows a contractor who has worked on Firefox extensions and would be interested in helping with this, please let me know. |
I don't have the knowledge to fix this issue, but here are the FF32 changes that could affect add-ons "Remove main-thread I/O from password manager. The API to access the Login Manager remains mostly unchanged, but the storage backend is now asynchronous and JSON-based. This also includes a change that makes modifyLogin validate its input just like addLogin." |
I'll try to read this, without having the knowledge as well. Maybe i can fix it |
Same status on Ubuntu box. Works well with Windows 7 |
No news? No firefox extension developers? No hints on where the bug could be from the develpers? (All after I moved the password to Mitro?) |
@oderwat Works with Windows. Confirmed |
I'm going to close this as a duplicate of Issue #2. We aren't sure why Firefox 32 broke Mitro. We hope to find someone to help fix it in the near future. At the moment the only workaround is to use Chrome or downgrade to Firefox 31. Sorry. |
Is it just me or is this unacceptable for a password manager? I'm locked out of my bank account right now because of this. If you can't responsibly maintain something so critical you shouldn't advertise it as being maintained. |
Sorry, this is the challenge of open source: we volunteer our spare time to work on this. In the mean time: If you downgrade to Firefox 31, or use Chrome, you will be able to access Mitro. Thanks. |
Agreed it's a challenge, and I appreciate the work everyone puts into it. Unfortunately, as is often the case, complaints are louder than appreciation. That said, it's still unacceptable for such critical software to stop working just like that, open source or not. Imagine if a critical piece of nginx stopped working in the new Ubuntu. I'll install Chrome temporarily and then switch to a different solution. Thanks for your time and apologizes for the sour tone. |
@evanj is it so impossible to find a developer? I talked with some devs and they don't have time (from the IRC chat of Mozilla), but if you talk with them, it can be different... |
Hello Folks. Indeed Firefox 32 and the later version has affected add-on compatibility of some open-source projects including Mitro. Windows7/Firefox>=32 can NOT be added as a new device. The same issue may applies to OSX/Firefox>=32. Surprisingly Ubuntu14.04/Firefox>=32 can be added as a new device. |
Mitro stopped working (hangs on login) with FireFox v32 on OSX. Can anybody confirm this?
