[bug][Nightly 16-12-15][AdBlock Plus] Browser hangs

Post by GH113 »

Hello!
Bug: Nightly 16-12-15 (e10s enabled) hangs
STR:
Create new profile, about:addons -> install AdBlock Plus, close AdBlock Plus welcome window
about:addons - update AdBlock Plus, for some reason 2.6.13 version is installed, you need 2.7!
about:addons -> install NoScript, restart
Load www.overclockers.ru, allow http://www.overclockers.ru/ in NoScript dropdown menu
Reload the tab with overclockers.ru
Browser should hang. If it doesn't hang, try to reload the page a couple more times (wait until the page loads completely).

If I uninstall NoScript, this bug is not reproduced, that's why I posted this bugreport on this forum.

Could anyone confirm, please? Thanks.

> (e10s enabled)

If you disable e10s, is there still the hang.
If you drop back to ABP < 2.7, with e10 enabled, is there still the hang.
(ABP 2.7 specifically has changes pertaining to e10s.)

Full develoopment for e10s in NoScript is still ongoing, so some of what is seen may not necessarily be unexpected.

Also, errors in the browser console related to NoScript:

Have you verified that it's actually due to ABP itself as opposed to what your installed ABP filters are blocking/allowing?
To do so, duplicate any ABP filters active on that page, into NoScript's ABE (but first verify that ABE does actually work under e10s, otherwise try some other blocking addon that does work under e10s).

AdBlock Plus has an option to "Disable everywhere". I tried it, the browser still hangs after I reload the page a couple of times. The list of blockable items shows not a single element was blocked by ABP before the hang occured.

I read an article about ABE and don't quite understand what I have to do. I am stupid, sorry :cry: Simple copy-paste won't work, right?

Well if you set ABP to block nothing and the issue still happens, then it doesn't matter, nvm.
