When atemping to use wifi hotspots FireFox does not redirect to login page.

when trying to use a hot spot like in a hotel or airport (tmoble for one) will not redirect to login page. Nor can it find the page when I enter the DNS name. If I enter the IP address of the long in page then it can find it but not the subsequent pages that it calls by DNS.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://

I am a Hotspot ISP and I am having this issue with Firefox on Linux devices. We use Colubris MSC-3300 as access controllers tied to a RADIUS server. Have tested all other browsers on Windows and Linux and they seem to work correctly, problem seems to be tied to Firefox on Linux (testing with Ubuntu 11.04). When I open Firefox the redirect to captive portal page works correcty. I enter my username and password and when it tries to send this information back to the controller I get a "connection was interrupted" error. I have gone into Preferences and turned everything off and/or on and still can't get this device to log in.

  • When I click on a link Firefox does not allow me to go to the link

    When I click on a link Firefox does not go the link.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Along time ago.

    I think i've found how to fix this issue when it appears. Don't know what caused it to happen, but that's up to the devs.
    In Thunderbird, you need to re-register http and https to make them open with Firefox (or open well with firefox in this case).
    How to to this?
    Well... open the about:config in thunderbird. You can achieve this by clicking configuration-editor in the advanced tab.
    search for the strings: network.protocol-handler.warn-external.https and network.protocol-handler.warn-external.http. Set both to "true".
    The next time you click on a link from within Thunderbird, it will ask you to set wich program you'd like to open it with.
    Be Aware now!!! Firefox may already be listed in there, but don't pick that one. instead... choose to browse for the app and point to the binairy/exe of firefox.
    (for example: /usr/bin/firefox or c:/program files/mozilla/firefox.)
    You will notice that firefox now does open up with the page you just clicked on.
    If it doesn't right away... just restart thunderbird and check again.
    Please respond if this works for you too on all platforms. It's more interesting to know it does than if it's not.

  • Firefox does not redirect users to web auth page

    I have a client that uses web auth for the guest wireless.  When a users opens up FF, it does not automatically redirect them to the web auth page.  However, IE and Chrome work fine.  If you copy and paste the redirection page into FF, it will go to the page then.  The only two possible solutions I have found are to either enable web auth proxy or regenerate the WLC self-signed cert. 
    Anyone have any other ideas? 
    TIA,
    Dan

    I've been trying to figure out a very similar issue where Firefox wouldn't open the guest webpage (the connection was interrupted) and finally found it was caused by opening Yahoo as my startup page. I change it to Google, for example, and it comes up everytime now. When set to Yahoo I could clear my cache and it would work once but then wouldn't work again. If I load Yahoo as the startup page in IE it works everytime. Very strange.
    Here's what the debug looks like:
    *webauthRedirect: Jul 23 20:59:33.793: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx- received connection
    *webauthRedirect: Jul 23 20:59:33.794: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx- received connection

  • PORTAL.Home does not redirect to chosen page.

    Hello All
    I have recently successfully transported my oracle development to another server and unfortunately am left with one rather minor but important problem.
    i have a public page with an SSO portlet on it for a user to login to, however when i goto administer and change the default page, a user is still referred to the default Top-level site if no session is opened. and clicking home still does not redirect. I was wondering if anyone could tell me the table where the URL for PORTAL.home is kept so I could edit it manually as it seems the webform is not working. or is it possible to safely deny/delete the builder design time pages completely for client side deployment?
    Many Thanks
    James

    Sorry forgot to state i am working on portal 10.1.4 with DB on 10.1.0.5.

  • When I open Firefox to my home page then go to a secomd page firefox does not remember my home page when I try to go back to my home page by using the back button

    When I open up Firefox it goes to my home page, then I surf the web but when I go the the back button it shows my history but not my home page (or the first page I went to).

    Do you get the same two tabs when you launch a new window (Command+n) or only at startup?
    You may want to check your extensions in case something snuck in. You can review and disable those on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Command+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Does that shut down the extra page?

  • Using a Mac, Firefox does not allow me to use the vertical scroll bar real-time in Godaddy webmail. It lags and jumps. Godaddy says it is a browser issue. Does not happen in Safari with Mac OS 10.4.11 or on PC w/windows vista.

    The problem is not my server (Comcast) as it does not happen on Safari when trying different websites as well as Godaddy.com or my Godaddy webmail. The problem is only when using my Mac OS X 10.4.11 (not my Windows Vista PC) in Firefox. I only began noticing this recently. Godaddy says this is a browser issue with my Mac as they cannot replicate it.

  • Often firefox does not load my inbox page--I get a blank page instead

    1. My e-mail pages (specifically the inbox) often just doesn't load in Firefox: a blank page sprouts up and a tab showing the URL that supposedly has been entered, but even when I click that specific tab again, the page remains blank.--Then I have to resort to my inbox icon on the Yahoo toolbar before I can access my inbox.
    2. The Firefox window takes a very long time to emerge; sometimes I have to click the "Quick Launch" in my taskbar 2 or 3 times before
    the window comes up--this still happens though I updated the driver for my Network adapter recently.

    From Demo:
    If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.
    If the above does not work try:
    I understand that your App Store does not show your app updates. Please follow the steps below to help resolve the issue.
    1. Close All Apps on iPad: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    2. Sign out of iTunes & App Stores: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap AppleID > Sign out

  • Firefox does not remembe the login name for the user login name on secure sites.

    My user got a new computer and I installed the latest version of firefox. It no longer remembers user names on secure sites and the employee does not like the fact that she has to type in her user name every time she needs to log into the site. The browser is set to automatically save user names and passwords.

    Please first update your plugins, Flash has a new version.
    Does this happen in Safe Mode?
    *[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    First troubleshooting steps are:
    *[[Control whether Firefox automatically fills in forms]]
    It is also possible to check the saved passwords to make sure that the information is saved. On an https site that does not autofill the information for logging in , the username is blank. I removed the entry by right cicking on the page, selecting "Page Info" and under "Security" viewing the saved passwords.

  • Does not Redirect to requested page

    Hi,
    We are trying to deploy Sun Access Manager with Policy Agent 2.2 on Sun Application server 9.1 and Sun WebServer in Solaris.
    I have detailed below the steps followed by us to deploy on Solaris 64-bit machine.
    We have the following two machines. (Both are 64 bit Sparc 9 Machines)
    1. solaris9.tricipher.com
    Following is the configuration.
    �     Sun Java Application Server 9.1
    �     Sun Java System Access Manager 7.1
    Steps performed while configuring the Sun Java System Access Manager 7.1.
    1.     We created a policy named "TriCipher Policy".
    2.     We created a rule named http://sol9test.tricipher.com: 80/TC/welcome.html
    and allow for both GET & POST.
    3.     We created the subject named "TriCipher Subject" and select "All Authenticated Users "option with it.
    4.     We created the user named "tricipheruser" and password.
    5.     We created the agent named "tricipheragent" and password
    2. sol9test.tricipher.com
    Following is the configuration.
    �     Sun Java System Web Server 7.0
    �     Sun Java System Access Manager Policy Agent 2.2 for Sun Java System Web Server 7.0
    Steps performed while configuring the Sun Java System Web Server 7.0
    1.     We deployed a .war file named "TC.war". This file contains the simple html file (welcome.html)
    2.     We installed the above specified policy agent, which created the file "AMAgent.properties".
    3.     While installing the policy agent we specified the agent name "tricipheragent" and its password after encrypting it.
    When we tried to access to protected URL from the windows machine of same domain it redirected us to the login page of the Sun Java System Access Manger 7.1 as expected.
    We entered the username "tricipheruser" and its password, it verified the user details and it forward the request to the browser with the desired URL, however, and it shows a blank page.
    We have checked the web server log and found the following error. "Failure for host 10.66.8.15 trying to GET /TC/welcome.html, func_exec reports: HTTP2302: Function
    validate_session_policy aborted the request without setting the status code"
    We have identified that the error is at validate_session_policy (PathCheck is the node), which is called in obj.conf at the agent in the web server config folder. (Attached herewith the modified obj.conf folder)
    Further we have tried the following too:
    1. Tried with IIS Server with the policy agent deployed. However, the
    result is same.
    2. Secondly we removed all policy agent and configure the Sun Access
    Manager such that, on successful login in the Sun Access Manager it will redirect to www.yahoo.com page. It works fine.
    3. Thirdly we modified the configuration, such that the successful login of Sun Access Manager will redirect to our site i,e.
    http://iis-02-tricipher.com: 80/login.html. Now we are getting blank page.
    In order to identify what is coming in the http header; we have installed "http live Header" in Fire fox browser and found that there is an error HTTP/1.x 500 Internal Server Error. We could not find the reason for this.
    Looking forward to your help.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    One thing that could help is to look at the info in the agent logs, first increase Debug Logging Level, then restart the agent server and click thru your app, then look in agent runtime logs which should have more descriptive errors. For more detail on how to do this, try http://wikis.sun.com/display/OpenSSO/GlassFishAgentTrouble#GlassFishAgentTrouble-generaltips
    You could look on this page, which is mostly based on GlassFish server but could help for other servers as well.
    http://wikis.sun.com/display/OpenSSO/GlassFishAgentTrouble
    I have not installed either of the policy agents you mentioned. But with some of the other agents, like the Sun App server 9 (GlassFish) agent, it comes with a sample application, and I find that this is the best way to ensure your setup is good and you are following all steps etc. Once sample app is up, you can try your own apps with confidence.
    Since you already have the SJSAS 9 installed, maybe you could create a new domain and download/install the SJSAS 9 policy agent on the new domain. Then try out the sample app?
    Or if those other agents have a sample app then try it out.
    hth,
    Sean

  • After installing 3.6.10 firefox does not open selected web pages just gives garbage web pages at random. Had to use explorer just to get here

    after updating to 3.6.10 firefox loads wrong web pages. Had to use explorer to get help. All web pages won't load just bookmarked pages.

    Can you clarify something. Is it just bookmarks that you are having problems with, or do you get this problem when clicking on links or typing an address in the location bar.
    If it is just bookmarks, a possible cause is a damaged places.sqlite file (the file that stores bookmarks), for details on how to fix that see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locked_or_damaged_places.sqlite
    If it is clicking on links, being re-directed on search engines etc, then this can be caused by malware. Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:

  • After the Firefox 6.0.2 update (up from 6.0), Firefox does not open a tab/page anymore when clicking on links in e-mail(have Thunderbird 6.0.2)

    Firefox no longer receives clicks on links in e-mail and others. No response at all. When I click on URL links in Windows, I receive "Windows cannot find http://<an address>. Make sure you typed the name correctly ...". When I click on e-mail links in Thunderbird, I do not get an error but nothing happens.

    This problem disappeared after a few days by itself but the last significant change in my PC prior to noticing normal Firefox link behaviour was MS Vista update KB2607712 & restart. This may or may not be the solution to the problem.

  • I have stored the password for a site I use often, but Firefox does not remember. Have to type in each time.

    User name and password are stored correctly in preferences, but the fields remain blank whenever I try to login to a site I use often. No prompt "Do you want firefox to remember..." Do get a popup "do you want to update password?" but it makes no difference whether I check yes or not.
    No such problem with several other sites whose passwords are stored.

    You must have the "Remember passwords" feature enabled for the browser to remember them. In Firefox 2.0 and above, make sure Tools -> Options -> Security / Passwords -> "Remember passwords for sites" is checked.
    Additionally, you may have once told the browser to never save the passwords for the site. In Firefox 2.0 and above, check the list under Tools -> Options -> Security / Passwords -> Exceptions. Also make sure you are not private browsing while saving password.
    Cheers

  • Using Windows 7, Firefox does not allow a script to work for an online counter that worked fine on Xp. It works fine in IE with Windows 7.

    On several websites, there is an online counter that shows the count, but now that I have Windows 7 it doesn't show the count. IE shows it but not Firefox. It worked fine in XP.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • HT4111 I have an IPAD updated with iSO 7. Recently I purchased a logitech wireless keyboard and I went to pair the two up and the IPAD shows that the keyboard is paired or connected but when I type using the keyboard it does not transfer to the pad scene.

    I have an IPAD updated with iSo 7. Recently I purchased a logitech wireless keyboard.
    I went to pair the two up and the IPAD recognizes the keyboard and cites that it is connected.
    But I proceed to type the words do not transfer to the screen.
    Any suggestions? Techs at Best Buy state that the iSO 7 is not yet compatible with the keyboard manufacturers?
    How long before they are?

    The BestBuy guys are clueless.  I use a Logitech BT Tablet keyboard with my iPad 4 - used it before with iOS 6 and use it now with iOS 7 and it works just fine.
    A simply thing to try is to remove the BT pairing, reset your iPad (hold the on/off/sleep button and the home button at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears), then try repairing them.  You may have to force the keyboard back into pairing mode (on mine, there is a button on the underside, near the on/off switch, that I would press and hold for second or two to force pairing mode).

  • Firefox does not redirect anywhere and I tried but still fails

    when I open my firefox on W8 the thing is that any url I wrote and I write on the search bar and when I hit enter , nothing happens, stays there‼‼‼ like refreshing the site, I know this same problem is happening to others I tried the same procedures and I'm still in the same page. my dear firefox.. it is time to say good bye? I'm here becouse I like firefox. so please can you give me the real solution to this or I have to migrate and still loving firefox?

    yes guys, thank you all very much, I did all you say but nothing by the way in running the last version of firefox. But I really want to share with you guys that I found the reason of the problem. It was IDM. Internet Downloader Manager , I'd desinstall that program and it works fine just like before and redirect everything‼.I Noticed the problem when I uninstall that program (the other browsers wasn't able to redirect anywhere) I'm sorry for doubt about firefox‼‼ My mistake... but there you have it, for all of you having the same problem, that was the real solution.beware if you do not clean the registry you do not be able to run any browser because of IDM.
