Broken since 2017-07-10 FF nightly.

[Betsy25]

What is the problem?

Violentmonkey is no longer working since 2017-10-07 Firefox nightly.
The toolbar icon is there but just flash instead of opening upon clicking & the scripts seems to be non-working. To be specific, they don't work upon loading the page it should target, but only kick in after refreshing the page after loading.

Multiprocess = Enabled.
dom.ipc.processCount = 2
dom.ipc.processCount.extension = 1

• Browser: FF x86 nightly 20170711
• Browser version: 56a1
• Violentmonkey version: 2.6.3
• OS: Win7 x64

@Betsy25 I'm pretty sure this is a FF bug ever since OOP extensions has been enabled a few days ago.

I do experience this with my own extension but it's unpredictable for me so I can't file a bug on bugzilla yet.

they don't work upon loading the page it should target, but only kick in after refreshing the page after loading.

If it works after setting extensions.webextensions.remote to false, then I recommend filing a bug on bugzilla and blocking 1190679.

Thanks for chiming in mrdokenny,

I've tried setting extensions.webextensions.remote to false & browser restart, problem continues. The toolbar icon appears to work correctly, however the scripts only fire randomly, like once every 2 times they should have fired.
Tried changing values for dom.ipc.processCount.extension & browser restart, still the same problem as above.

Does this still happen in Firefox v57 with Violentmonkey v2.8.7?

[Betsy25]

Hi gera2ld, I'm sorry to say but with the latest v2.8.7 on the latest Firefox nightly, the script still doesn't work, and now doesn't even work anymore after manually refreshing the page either.

I can see at the counter banner of the icon that the script is ran on the specific pages, but doesn't do anything that it should.

[gera2ld]

Some scripts do not work on certain sites due to CSP issue on Firefox, which is a known issue.
So I want to make sure whether the extension itself is working. I guess it worked since the badge number was shown. Did the popup menu show when clicked on the icon?

[Betsy25]

Yes, the icon popup menu came up just fine. And showed that the script was running when on the tab where a script should run.

OK, then it may be related with #173
