Since I prefer to have Greek language menus, when I download the latest version 
of Firefox for
Solaris I also download the latest Greek version for Linux. I just copy file 
omni.jar and
everything works OK. Remember I am still working under OpenSolaris. The other 
day, for some
strange reason, I downloaded the Greek version for Windows and I installed it 
with wine.
I copies file omni.jar and then I noticed that firefox could not save files and 
in fact it
was saving files in /tmp with the cryptic names you described in your earlier 
message. When
I replace omni.jar with the one that comes with the Linux binary everything 
worked as it should
be!!! That's really strange, isn't it?

Hi Apostolos,

which omni file have you replaced (I suppose in browser directory)? In my FF 
24esr I have found 3 such files:

$ ls -al /opt/sfw/lib/firefox/browser/omni.ja /opt/sfw/lib/firefox/omni.ja 
/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/webapprt/omni.ja
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 3837416 Mar 17 06:53 
/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/browser/omni.ja
-rw-r--r--   1 root root 7091185 Mar 17 06:53 
/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/omni.ja
-rw-r--r--   1 root root   26945 Mar 17 06:53 
/opt/sfw/lib/firefox/webapprt/omni.ja

Also in FF28 (for both OS and Linux OS) tar files:
$ tar tvf firefox-28.0.en-US.opensolaris-i386.tar.bz2 | grep omni
-rw-r--r-- 0/0 4314930 2014-03-17 04:38 firefox/browser/omni.ja
-rw-r--r-- 0/0   44757 2014-03-17 04:38 firefox/webapprt/omni.ja
-rw-r--r-- 0/0 8180461 2014-03-17 04:38 firefox/omni.ja

$ tar tvf firefox-28.0.en-US.linux-i386.tar.bz2 | grep omni
-rw-r--r-- 0/0 8230925 2014-03-15 07:49 firefox/omni.ja
-rw-r--r-- 0/0 4317047 2014-03-15 07:49 firefox/browser/omni.ja
-rw-r--r-- 0/0   44940 2014-03-15 07:49 firefox/webapprt/omni.ja

Thanks.
Regards.

any particular reason for using 28, rather than the most recent ESR?

https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest-esr/contrib/solaris_pkgadd/

24.4 seems to work happily for me ...

 Hi,

 recently I did a fresh install of OI Hipster in VMware Fusion on my Mac by
 using the latest ISO image available at
 http://dlc.openindiana.org/isos/hipster/, applied all updates via pkg
 image-update -v and added a few additional packages. So far, a quite
 plain vanilla installation.

 Because the installed Firefox version is a bit old (17.0.11ESR), I
 downloaded FF 28.0 from ftp.mozilla.org, but this release doesn't work
 well:
 Trying to install an add-on or update the Ghostery 2.7.2 add-on I just
 installed in FF17 results in an error message on the console:

 *** ERROR addons.xpi: Failed to create staging directory: Error:
 UnixFile.mkdir is not a function
 (resource://gre/modules/osfile/osfile_unix_front.jsm:375)


 Does someone have an idea what is causing this error?

It's newer? :-)

Yes, I saw that in the mailing list archive. Tried that just a moment ago, 
and indeed that seems to work.

What puzzles me is that a few minutes ago FF28 didn't want to download the 
source code of Git 1.9.0 (empty file), but after I read your mail I was

writing messages to this list seems to (at least temporarily) fix the
problem being reported in Firefox ... I think it reads the messages and
subtly alters it's usage ;-P

Hi,

just after I posted my mail I discovered that FF28 obviously shows the
same (mis-)behaviour as was discussed a few weeks ago in the thread
Firefox can't save files (
http://openindiana.org/pipermail/openindiana-discuss/2014-March/015308.html
):

Downloading the source code of Git 1.9.0 results in an empty file in my
Downloads folder, while a .part file with a cryptic name remains in /tmp
that contains the source code...

As far as I remember there hasn't been a real solution for this, right?






AFAIK there hasn't been any resolution, real, band-aid or otherwise.

I ended up rolling back to version 25.0.1, which is working well for me.
