1190714 - (e10s) Protocol registration from extension doesn't work anymore (Mega.nz)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1097530

(Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[Tobias B. Besemer [:BesTo] (QA)]

Test machine:
- Windows 7, 64 bit;
- Firefox 40.0a2 and 41.0a2, 64 bit, with e10s;
- Newest Mega.nz-Extension.

Test case:
- A link to a file that is hosted on Mega.nz (or Mega.nz.co);
- Open link e.g. in new tab

What should happen (and happens AFAIK without e10s):
- URL get replaced with a shortened URL that starts with the (from the extension registered) protocol "mega:";
- Extension gets displayed/used in this tab.

What happens with e10s:
- URL get replaced with a shortened URL that starts with the protocol "mega:";
- Error page appears and extension/page gets not loaded.

Seems with e10s the extension is not able to register the protocol.

Not sure: Part of bug 1013030?

Retested with MEGA Extension v3.1.2 & FF42.0a2. Still the same.
