NAS won't work anymore with NoScript and FF 50.0

Hello everybody,

since upgrading to Firefox 50.0 stable with NoScript, my Synology NAS desktop won't work.

The NAS has the address 192.168.0.214:5000, which is whitelisted. This worked up to Firefox 49 like a charm. But since the FF upgrade, my Synology says right on the start screen "Please allow JavaScript". The only option to get my Synology desktop working is to completely disable NoScript ("allow all scripts on all sites").
But this cannot be the real solution. So what is the problem - NoScript or Firefox?

Since this is a local address, I automatically think of ABE. When it fails, does anything NoScript-related appear in the Browser Console (Ctrl+Shift+J)?

Hi, thank you for your kind help. :mrgreen:
Well, it's NoScript version 2.9.5rc36 (why do I get release candidates on this machine?).

But wait a minute: Today It works, without changing any parameters! :o
Don't know if there has been a new version of NoScript been installed today, as this is my wife's laptop...
So, all is well that ends well.

P.S.: My Firefox AddOns Details page says, NoScript has indeed been updated today, so I think it was a bug in the previous version.
But why do I get Release Candidates? Haven't found where I can switch to stable versions.... :shock:

You can install the release version from addons.mozilla.org, and it will then stay on the release version.
