[RESOLVED] NoScript causes whitelisted site to not work

[Guest]

mynycb.com site fails at login of user id even though site is white listed.
The site says to clear the cache even of the cache has been cleared.
If NoScript is disabled login proceeds normally.

When it fails, do you see anything related in the Browser Console? (Ctrl-Shift-J)
(if you don't know what's related, turn off CSS warnings and post everything else you see)

Here is the log when the submit button is pressed.

Please try adding the following line to your NoScript Options|Advanced|XSS exceptions box:

Code: Select all

^https://secure\.mynycb\.com/forms/login\.jsp$

Thanks
That seemed to work.
That line was 1000 characters long in the error log.

That site was totally uninterested in the problem and has always had all sorts of JS strangeness.

I paste into the box and it works but it forgets it when I close FIrefox!?

Do other NoScript preference changes persist?
What about any other preference changes at all?

[Guest]

I tried turning off the "Turn cross-post..." option and it also was reset to on upon reloading Firefox.

I made my changes and exported them to a file.
On reloading Firefox, I then imported them. OK
Restarting Firefox again, everything was reset to default on the XXS tab.

Removing [RESOLVED] from the title.

Are you running Firefox in a sandbox?
Do you have a user.js or lockpref file?

If no and no and no, maybe try this:
1) Completely shut down Firefox
2) Open prefs.js in a text editor
3) Copy the *entire* contents
4) paste into a new file, save this new file somewhere outside the profile, name it "prefs.js"
5) rename the prefs.js that's in your profile and remove it from your profile (if you can?)
6) move the newly created prefs.js into your profile

That should fix it if it's a file permission problem.

Does that help at all?
If not, are you running any software that might be messing with your profile? Likely culprits could include security software and certain kinds of "cleaning" software.

That seems to do it.
I also have over a thousand prefs-####.js of length 0.

Great!

I also have over a thousand prefs-####.js of length 0.

Yep, anything like that is a sure sign of a file permissions problem.
