Re: "Unable to add module", but why?
Ok, after inspecting the problem a little further it turns out the module in question is in fact incompatible with Firefox 3.6+, for everyone, not just me. It seems some users thought they had it running while they didn't, which caused some confusion. The problem therefor lies with the company providing the module and not with FF and NSS, so I've contacted them about the issue. Consider this one solved, while it might still be interesting for someone else how to get more feedback from NSS and FF when loading a module fails.

Re: "Unable to add module", but why?
Thanks for the reply, and yes, it's a module that others have repported working fine with Firefox, but I and some other people can't get it loaded for some reason. Might be some sort of incompability between the module and my build of Firefox, but without more informative feedback from FF and/or NSS that's a bit of hard to know. // L On Tue, Jan 25, 2011 at 1:17 AM, Daniel Veditz wrote: > Forwarding question to the mozilla.dev.tech.crypto group. > > Is this a module you're creating yourself, or one you know works > fine with Firefox for other people? > > On 1/21/11 6:21 PM, Lbm wrote: > > Hi, first of all I hope I'm posting this question in the right place. > > > > Anyway, I've been trying to add a specific PKCS#11 module to Firefox > > and keep getting the, rather uninformative, message "Unable to add > > module".

Anyway, I've been trying to add a specific PKCS#11 module to Firefox and keep getting the, rather uninformative, message "Unable to add module". What I'd like to know is how one might be able to get some more info on _why_ the module can't be loaded? Also noticed that one can debug modules using a specific environment variable, but since the actual module is never loaded at all that's pretty much a no go. Any info would be really appreciated! Well, I used to have the same problem and I have successfully used the pkcs11-spy.dll drom the OpenSC package. It sits between your module and Firefox and writes all PKCS#11 function calls to a file. There you can see what exactly went wrong. Hope this helps, M. Kurpel -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto

Forwarding question to the mozilla.dev.tech.crypto group. Is this a module you're creating yourself, or one you know works fine with Firefox for other people?
