It should show indexedDB... I assume you mean a Web Extension?

And I assume you are debugging the web extension via about:debugging?

Attachment: When I load the extension using "Load temporary module"

It shows if I use debug in a temporarily loaded extension.

Comment 4

Attachment: When using debug on a installed extension

It doesn't show anything for debugging installed extensions.

If you download https://github.com/mozilla/notes/files/1543921/addon-2.0.0rc3.zip and load it as a temporary module it doesn't work even if the sidebar is open, if you unzip it and load the manifest.json, it doesn't work either.

Attachment: Database appears to work just fine

I have tried your addon two ways:

Temporary Addon

1. Unzip the zip file.
2. Go to about:debugging
3. Click "Install Temporary Addon..."
4. In the file dialog choose any file from the addons folder.
5. Click the sync button and enable syncing by clicking the link in the email that is sent to you.
6. In about:debugging click debug under your addon.
7. Go to the storage inspector.
8. Open the indexedDB branches.

All data is there as expected.

1. Go to about:config
2. Set "xpinstall.signatures.required" to false.
3. Restart the browser
4. Go to about:addons
5. In about:debugging click debug under your addon.
6. Go to the storage inspector.
7. Open the indexedDB branches.

All data is there as expected.

In both cases the data is present as expected.

Can you try again using the latest nightly and let us know if this is still an issue? If you have specific steps that will allow us to reproduce the issue it would be much appreciated.
