Indeed. The idea used to be that cookies were bad, but in fact they are
an amazing tool and much of the functionality of the web is now
dependant on them. Yes they can be used for tracking, but there are
other tricks to do that too. I would say the benefits of cookies far
outweigh the disadvantages.

It's understandable that you wouldn't know this, but SBS (and a lot of
websites) use cookies to do very useful things.

Re: [slim] SBS 7.5.1 - Is it really this broken?

2010-08-06 Thread Skipperrik

Switching to Chrome was actually a great suggestion.  It helped me solve
the problem with Firefox.  I did a fresh installation of Chrome.  No
cache, no cookies, right out of the box.  When I set it up I checked
"Block sites from setting any data" to eliminate sites from setting
cookies.  I entered the url address for Squeezebox Server and got the
SAME problems that existed in Firefox.  Just for the heck of it, I
changed the data setting to "Ask me when a site wants to set data".  I
refreshed the page and sure enough, SBS wanted to set a cookie.  After
allowing it, the web interface worked perfectly.  I then went back to
Firefox and allowed SBS to set cookies.  Now all of the functions work
fine in Firefox.

Who would have thought that cookies were the cause?

Thanks for your suggestions guys.  They were a big help in working
through the problem.

If you can't solve it, switch to Chrome. ;)  Seriously, I switched after
years of being a diehard Firefox user and I doubt that I'll ever look
back.  Every once in a blue moon I'll have to use Firefox for a site
that doesn't work right in Chrome, and it now feels like bloated
crapware worthy of Microsoft.

Just on the off-chance that the cache wasn't cleared completely in
Firefox, try loading the main page of the web skin, then use Ctrl-F5 to
reload it from freshly retrieved files.

Re: [slim] SBS 7.5.1 - Is it really this broken?

2010-08-06 Thread Skipperrik

I've cleared the cache in Firefox, disabled all the plug-ins and got
nowhere.  I did however use IE to open Squeezebox Server and things
seem to be working fine there.  It's definitely a Firefox issue but I
don't have a clue what the fix is.

Thanks for your comments.

Try another browser.  Then to get it working in Firefox, maybe clear
Firefox's cache, or disable Firefox addons until it works once again.
