rn10950 Posted November 10, 2018 Posted November 10, 2018 @roytam1 Patches applied somewhat successfully, there were a few errors but tried building anyway. I ran into an error during the build process that purplexes me, as the patch that contains the modification where the error is present seemed to have applied OK. Here is the patch log, with the build error attached at the end: https://dpaste.de/Kajx

DanR20 Posted November 11, 2018 Posted November 11, 2018 @roytam, I know you're already doing a lot with basilisk but is anyone in this project doing anything with Thunderbird 52? I was just curious if it would be possible to apply whatever security patches that 52 basilisk might be getting to that Thunderbird version?

Thunderbird's mailnews source needs to be overhauled as well.
temp-guest Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 are the LINKS in "post #1" ever going to be CORRECTED so that you can actually CLICK the LINK (ie, how LINKS are SUPPOSED to work) ??? for example - the "Binaries moved to here" quote-unquote 'link' SAYS "o.rths.cf/palemoon/?sort=date&order=desc" but it INCORRECTLY links to "o.rthost.cf/palemoon/?sort=date&order=desc" ... so when you CLICK on the "link", you are taken to the DEAD "o.rthost.cf" domain instead of the LIVING "o.rths.cf" domain ... it's a PITA that the 'link' isn't really a "link" ... thanks in advance for resolving this nuisance ... 1

I'm OK with that, but I know your efforts with Basilisk and New Moon were XP-specific.
Mathwiz Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 I hate when things break on update day. The natural inclination is to blame the update, but half the time it turns out to just be a coincidence. In this case, todoist.com no longer works with Abine's "Blur" tracking blocker add-on. (I can still block Google Analytics with Privacy Badger, though, so all is not lost.) They just happened to change it this AM, so it seemed like the 2018.11.10 build broke it. But when I reverted, it still didn't work, forcing me to dig deeper....

Yes, the PM team will target Win 7; but @roytam1 has some experience in modifying their code for XP/Vista (don't forget Vista!), so at least there's hope.

caliber Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 don't know why but I have noticed that downloading files through PM28 is much more faster than with FF52 from the same sources. wish I had found out this trick longs months ago !
VistaLover Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 Latest New Moon 27 (Tycho platform) on Windows Vista SP2 32-bit; browser specifics: New Moon 27.9.1a1 (32-bit) (2018-11-02) buildID=20181102135253 Package filename: palemoon-27.9.1a1.win32-git-20181103-e1975531d-xpmod.7z As @CoRoNe has previously posted (here and here), I seemingly was unaffected by the recent GitHub changes: No top banner about an unsupported browser, browsing repositories and changing branches inside a repository without login in, all worked fine! Even when logged in, I could do everything I wanted, or so it appeared... Today I discovered one function that doesn't work, and this is Comment Previewing (either when writing a new comment or while editing an existing one ); the preview tab just displays "Error rendering preview", Error Console displays a ReferenceError on a big github javascript file: I then tried what was suggested by Roy here, i.e. creating a SSUAO for GitHub, restarted NM27 and tested anew, but this hasn't fixed the issue ; as is best recommended in the case of bugs, I repeated tests in, first, Safe Mode and, second, by creating a new pristine NM27 profile (all to no avail...). Can anyone here with a Github account reproduce? @roytam1: Is there a possible fix for this in Tycho, or should I give up Github altogether in NM27? FTR, everything GitHub related (i.e. including Comment Previewing) works as expected in latest NM28 out-of-the-box (without a SSUAO), but I still prefer to run NM27 when I have a choice, it being more responsive and gentler on resources in this old hardware of mine... Again, many thanks for your invaluable efforts!

Again, many thanks for your invaluable efforts! Github is using Request object now: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request some basic things can be backported to PM27, but don't know if it is enough for Github. you may try enabling "dom.fetch.enabled" in about:config to see if it will work again? EDIT: after spoofing user agent and enabling fetch API, github is working. Edited November 15, 2018 by roytam1

Hello; I am sorry to report that your suggested fixes DID NOT cure my reported issue about GitHub Comment Previewing not working in (latest) NM27 I first created the string pref general.useragent.override.github.com;Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0 (Pale Moon) and then toggled dom.fetch.enabled so that now is: dom.fetch.enabled;true New Moon was restarted, then I accessed, e.g., https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/17842#issuecomment-438809543 I cleared all Github cookies, cleared the browser cache, restarted and successfully logged-in anew to my Github account; I tried to edit my last comment in that thread and, again, Comment Previewing does not work, though this time Browser Console reports a different error: In case it helps, here is also the Request Headers window for the POST request for the preview: Any more ideas, please...? Thanks for your time spent already on this...
