User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:57.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/57.0 Build ID: 20171115094908 Steps to reproduce: 1. Bring up console 2. Go to the service workers demo indicated in the Mozilla service workers documentation. https://mdn.github.io/sw-test/ Actual results: The console will print "Registration failed with SecurityError: The operation is insecure." The page will not be cached as it is supposed to be. Expected results: Console should have indicated Service Worker "installing" or "active". Testing on Chrome will indicate a success on the exact same page.

Do you have cookies disabled or set to clear on logout? We don't allow service workers in cases where storage is disabled right now. We also don't properly handle the "clear on logout" for things like service workers/IDB/Cache API so we are conservative and block service workers there.

You were correct. I had set cookies to "keep unitl I close firefox". When I set it back to "they expire" then the service workers registered. Thanks.

Thanks Miguel for confirmation. Close as invalid per comment 2.
