Title:
Only one user on a computer can play html5/webm video
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
I am bitten by this bug with current firefox
(10.0.2+build1-0ubuntu0.11.10.1) on 32-bit ubuntu oneiric for x86,
although the problem is also in earlier versions of firefox and almost
certainly affects any current ubuntu distribution.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730656
To reproduce:
1. Start a ubuntu installation with only one user account on it
2. Go to, say, http://camendesign.com/code/video_for_everybody/test.html and
play all or part of the html5/webm video there.
3. Create a new user.
4. Log out and log in as the new user.
5. Try to play the video: it won't.
The patch I posted at
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=730656 corrects this
problem for me. It is caused by incorrect use of temporary cache
directories by firefox and/or incorrect permissions on the cache.
I have not tested, but this bug probably affects all other mozilla
products in ubuntu.
