Temporary install for CKP extension fails silently

Open fritzophrenic opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Thanks to your response to my review; I may delete that in a day or two since further investigation has shown my problems seem specific to a particular extension.

See attached screenshots. I was trying to install CKP, a.k.a. "Chrome KeePass", and either method for a temporary install fails in the same way. I.e. whether I click the "Install Temporarily" link or the "Temporarily Install Unsigned Addon" button the same thing happens.

What happens: The extension files download and get converted. Then all text on the installation dialog goes away. Only the buttons remain. Nothing actually gets installed.

What I expected to happen: either the extension should install, or I should get an error message.

ckp_install_dialog ckp_install_failed

After your reply to the review, I tried again with a different plugin. When I tried installing Save to Google Drive using the "Install Temporarily" link, the plugin installed successfully and I got a confirmation message. Oddly however, the buttons are still present in the confirmation message. drive_install_dialog drive_install_success

So, I can confirm this is an issue specific to the CKP extension.

If it matters, I'm running Firefox 47.0.1. I've now seen this behavior on both Ubuntu Linux and Windows 7.

Thanks very very much for this super detailed bug report! I will jump on this and share my findings!

This is a bug as I definitely should not show a blank message screen.
