Problem with download buttons and facebook container extionsion in firefox

Morgenkaff opened this issue · 5 comments

I have no idea how these to things are connected, but when the Facebook container extension is enabled in Firefox 67, the buttons to choose architecture for the Ubuntu Mate download does not work. All other extensions are disabled.

Here is a video of the problem:

At 0:12 I'm clicking the buttons.

Please let me know if there are more details I can provide.

Please press F12 to open the DevTools, and paste the output of the Console tab when clicking the button. This should provide some details.

Seems strange as there isn't any "Facebook code" (like buttons, etc) running on this site. 🤔

The console doesn't output anything when the buttons are clicked. But when the page loads, with the extension enabled, it gives this error:

Error: Permission denied to access property "__rocketLoaderInlineHandlerProxy"rocket-loader.min.js:1:9661

The error does not appear with the extension disabled.

It sounds like Rocket Loader (a server-side optimisation enabled on our CDN, CloudFlare) is interfering. I don't actually have access to Ubuntu MATE's CloudFlare (yet) so I can't turn it off.

However, with the new website update in the upcoming month(s), the download page won't be reliant on JavaScript and that will address the issue.

Don't know if anything (codewise) have been changed, but the problem doesn't exist for me anymore.

We just launched a new website update - the download page shouldn't be a problem any more as it doesn't rely on JavaScript.
