Greetings, Today I installed the 31.2.0esr release of firefox, obtained here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/31.2.0esr/contrib/solar is_pkgadd/firefox-31.2.0esr.en-US.opensolaris-i386-pkg.bz2 The system in question is running OpenIndiana oi151a7 (because it can still play flash videos), 64-bit. This version of firefox does not allow me to save downloaded files. The symptoms are that every download, or "Save As" action returns immediately, and the Download window just shows "Failed" for the item. I found via "truss" of the firefox process that it's logging some error messages in my ~/.mozilla/firefox/*/downloads.json file: UnixFile.read is not a function When I start firefox in safe mode from the command line, the failed download attempts log more details: ************************* A coding exception was thrown and uncaught in a Task. Full message: TypeError: UnixFile.read is not a function Full stack: EXCEPTION_CONSTRUCTORS.TypeError@resource://gre/modules/osfile/osfi le_async_front.jsm:87:5 post/<@resource://gre/modules/osfile/osfile_async_front.jsm:453:11 TaskImpl_run@resource://gre/modules/Task.jsm:283:1 Handler.prototype.process@resource://gre/modules/Promise.jsm -> resource://gre/modules/Promise-backend.js:866:9 this.PromiseWalker.walkerLoop@resource://gre/modules/Promise.jsm -> resource://gre/modules/Promise-backend.js:742:7 ************************* I've reverted to the firefox-31.1.0esr build, and downloads are working fine with that version.
