I am trying to make the web worker example from MDN to work when it is not served from a server but opened directly open from my local filesystem (via a via file:// URL)
The example works fine when served from Apache at http://localhost/1/simple-web-worker-gh-pages/index.html
but it doesn't when it is read locally at file:///var/www/html/1/simple-web-worker-gh-pages/index.html
The developer console shows that messages are posted but there is no answer from the worker. (I tried both Firefox and Chromium.)
How can I make it to work ?
(There's a similar question failed to load script - Webworker (PDF.JS) , but my problem is different, as I don't see a "Failed to load script" error.)
Avoid developing using file:/// - you'll waste time debugging, as not everything is supposed to work there.
In case of Worker() in Firefox, this was supported a year ago, but was apparently disabled in Firefox 68.
See Firefox 68: local files now treated as cross-origin; is there a way to override? - if you set privacy.file_unique_origin to false in about:config, the example should work.
I want to integrate Marketo form with my existing website on yii framework.
My code works on all the browsers except Firefox.
Excerpt from my code:
$('#button').click(function () {
var formData = {
'Email': $('#UserInfo_email').val(),
'FirstName': $('#UserInfo_first_name').val(),
'LastName': $('#UserInfo_last_name').val(),
};
MktoForms2.loadForm('//app-ab23.marketo.com', mcId, formId, function (form) {
var myForm = MktoForms2.allForms()[0];
myForm.addHiddenFields(formData);
myForm.onSuccess(function (values, followUpUrl) {
return false;
});
myForm.submit();
});
});
I get error on Firefox only with message
Loading failed for the <script> with source “http://app-ab23.marketo.com/index.php/form/getForm?munchkinId=1111&form=1111&url=http%3A%2F%2Fblox.dev%2Fwizard%2Fmap&callback=jQuery110207175825035737486_1503656391790&_=1503656391791”.
other browsers do the job correctly
note: munchkinId and formId are changed for posting here.
I just had the same issue on an application that is loading a script with a relative path.
It appeared the script was simply blocked by Adblock Plus.
Try to disable your ad/script blocker (Adblock, uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger…) or relocate the script such that it does not match your ad blocker's rules.
If you don't have such a plugin installed, try to reproduce the issue while running Firefox in safe mode.
If you cannot reproduce it in safe mode, it means your issue is linked to one of your plugins or settings.
Otherwise, it might be a different issue. Make sure you have the same error message as in the question. Also look at the network tab of the developer tools to check if your script is listed (reload the page first if needed).
I've just had the same issue - for me Privacy Badger on Firefox was the issue - not adblocker. Posting for posterity
I noticed that in Firefox this can happen when requests are aborted (switching page or quickly refreshing page), but it is hard to reproduce the error even if I try to.
Other possible reasons: cert related issues and this one talks about blockers (as other answers stated).
Today I ran into the exact same problem while working on a progressive web app (PWA) page and deleting some cache and service worker data for that page from Firefox. The dev console reported that none of the 4 Javascript files on the page would load anymore. The problem persisted in Safe mode, so it was not an add-on issue. The same script files loaded fine from other web pages on the same website. No amount of clearing the Firefox cache or wiping web page data from Firefox would help, nor would rebooting the Windows 10 PC. Chrome all the time worked fine on the problem page. In the end I did a restore of the entire Firefox profile folder from a day-old backup, and the problem was immediately gone, so it was not a problem with my PWA app. Apparently something in Firefox got corrupted.
I had the same problem (different web app though) with the error message and it turned out to be the MIME-Type for .js files was text/x-js instead of application/javascript due to a duplicate entry in mime.types on the server that was responsible for serving the js files. It seems that this is happening if the header X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is set, which makes Firefox (and Chrome) block the content of the js files.
As suggested above, this could possibly be an issue with your browser extensions. Disable all of your extensions including Adblock, and then try again as the code is loading fine in my browser right now (Google Chrome - latest) so it's probably an issue on your end. Also, have you tried a different browser like shudders IE if you have it? Adblock is known to conflict with domain names with track and market in them as a blanket rule. Try using private browsing mode or safe mode.
I ran into the same issue (exact error message) and after digging for a couple of hours, I found that the content header needs to be set to application/javascript instead of the application/json that I had. After changing that, it now works.
VPNs can sometimes cause this error as well, if they provide some type of auto-blocking. Disabling the VPN worked for my case.
If the src is https and the certificate has expired -- and even if you've made an exception -- firefox will still display this error message, and you can see the exact reason why if you look at the request under the network tab.
I had the same issue with firefox, when I searched for a solution I didn't find anything, but then I tried to load the script from a cdn, it worked properly,
so I think you should try loading it from a cdn link, I mean if you are trying to load a script that you havn't created.
because in my case, when tried to load a script that is mine, it worked and imported successfully, for now I don't know why, but I think there is something in the scripts from network, so just try cdn, you won't lose anything.
I wish it help you.
I ran in the same situation and the script was correctly loading in safe mode. However, disabling all the Add-ons and other Firefox security features didn't help. One thing I tried, and this was the solution in my case, was to temporary disable the cache from the developer window for this particular request. After I saw this was the cause, I wiped out the cache for that site and everything started word normally.
I've had the same problem and the culprit was the "I don't care about cookies" Firefox addon. Like another user here, I'm posting for posterity.
This could also be a simple syntax error. I had a syntax error which threw on FF but not Chrome as follows:
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js">
defer
</script>
I've just run into this issue while building Facebook Login into my ASP.NET project.
It turned out to be an extension called Facebook Container, which blocks the Facebook SDK script unless you add an exception for the site in question.
Once I added the exception it all worked fine.
Ran into the same problem today. It turned out that there was no storage space left on the VM the site was running on and therefore requests weren't completely handled anymore.
After cleaning things up (notably Docker-related stuff), everything works fine again.
For me it wasn't AdBlock, but actually a wrong relative path. Wrong error message I guess. I was able to see this in the server logs.
For me it was NoScript extension which was installed by default by my company. I configured localhost to be safe, then it worked.
For me (Next.js project static export) it was due to cache. I did a hard refresh Ctrl + F5 and everything started working fine.
I get the following error in Chrome when loading a trivially simple html file with a jQuery Mobile reference. The error is not present with just the jQuery reference.
Uncaught SecurityError: Failed to execute 'replaceState' on 'History':
A history state object with URL 'http://stacksnippets.net/js' cannot
be created in a document with origin 'null'.
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.4.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.js"></script>
</head>
<body></body>
</html>
You can also "Run code snippet" and see the error in the console.
This error did not happen before today. I have not changed my code or method of loading the html file in the browser. It used to work perfectly - I use the same code for all my PhoneGap apps.
Does anyone know if there was a Chrome security update that causes this SecurityError or whether I'm missing something? How would you go about debugging this? Thank you.
UPDATE
This discussion I think points out what is going on, which I suspected, since the error does not appear when running with a web server: Origin null is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin .
But I am still wondering why this changed in the past day, whether Chrome has had a change in their security policy, or why it was working before, and whether any of my PhoneGap apps will be affected.
This error is same as the origin is null error. This error occurs because of the security feature of Chrome.
A simple solution to test the application is to bypass this security on chrome.
Steps:
create a chrome browser shortcut on desktop.
Close all the instances of chrome on your machine.
Right click on the desktop shortcut of chrome and click on Properties.
in Target field, append " -allow-file-access-from-files" at the end.
Save and close properties.
Open chrome via this shortcut only.
Hurry, the error has gone. App works perfectly.
NOTE: This is just a work-around I use to test my cordova apps on desktop browser for UI testing.
Temporary solution: I've commented out all history.replaceState calls in jquery mobile, didn't need to manipulate browser history in my app anyways.
I wonder if it's chrome security bug or model and future behavior.
On a Mac I was able to fix this by running a webserver instead of loading it from a "file://" url:
http://lifehacker.com/start-a-simple-web-server-from-any-directory-on-your-ma-496425450?utm_expid=66866090-49.VYy4WCNHSyuP6EmjnM93MQ.0&utm_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
In the directory should make it available from Chrome via 0.0.0.0
I don't seem to have the same problem, not on the stable version of Chrome (45) or the Dev version (47).
However, I have personally seen issues with the CORS header, too. If you can cause the problem to happen reliably, I suggest filing a bug at crbug.com and a Chrome developer will have a look at it.
I have interesting issue in Internet Explorer 9 using localStorage. I use client-side localization in my web project using i18next library and as a localization storage we decided to use localStorage. We are loading all localization at the user first visit(whole localization for one language ~ 450kb). All is working well in all browser, except Internet explorer 9. After some time and switching between languages I start receiving error - "SCRIPT5022: DOM Exception: QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR (22)", when it trying to load localization from server-side. When I try - localStorage.remainingSpace it returns: 120776
However when i try to look what is stored in localStorage with a command - JSON.stringify(localStorage) it returns - "{}". So nothing is stored in localStorage however it writes that only 120kb is free. When I try on any other web site, for the command - localStorage.remainingSpace it shows - 5000000. Also localStorage.clear() is not helping to stop receiving that message - "SCRIPT5022: DOM Exception: QUOTA_EXCEEDED_ERR (22)"
The question is - 'Why internet explorer 9 thinks that localStorage is almost full while it don't contain any data?'
Thanks for any advance.
know how frustrating IE can be. I ran into a similar issue.
Try this this jquery plugin. Also see if this IE9 issue matches your use case
The plugin itself tries various fallbacks short of setting an actual cookie. They integrate several persistence mechanisms in a seamless API regardless of browser, as long as it's on their supported list, it'll work, within the size limitation.
[If 450kb does not fit, try to create a server-backed fallback that actively fetches required keys that are missing from the local storage so that you do not transfer the entire 450k dictionary.]
Best of luck!
I'm changing a .js JavaScript file in my ASP.NET MVC 5 solution, but when I go to debug the program, Internet Explorer 11 frequently loads old JavaScript files (caught chrome doing it too ). What is the problem here, some setting I'm missing? Even if it has the cached JavaScript file in its cache, shouldn't it load the new one with the newer modified date?
You can either read http://fiddler2.com/r/?httpperf to learn how browsers implement caching, or you can simply hit CTRL+F5 to get IE to bypass the cache.
IE cannot magically "know" that the server has a newer version without asking for it, which would defeat the purpose of having a cache in the first place.
change the setting via tools ->Internet options -> advanced -> enable the option empty internet temporary files folder when browser is closed
This worked for me
In explorer settings set the property to get files every time you visit the page.
