Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[unclesam]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Fedora; Linux x86_64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0
Build ID: 20180130211649

Steps to reproduce:

0. Install Firefox on Fedora 26/27 using an fresh installation without any addons
1. Enter a single word/webdomain into the adressbar
2. press enter


Actual results:

Most of the times, it seem to work, then sometimes it works when u open an second tab and try to open it their, sometimes even that wont work. 

What seems to work all the time is when u enter several words/symbols divided by an space, also using the little arrow button opens up the search word or the domain.




Expected results:

Accepted the return button and open up the search word or the domain u try to open.

Which antivirus do you have?
Could you please try to enable "Prevent Accessibility tools from accessing the browser" option?

This sounds like bug 1427166 or bug 1427224.

Did you check the error console to see if there was anything?

i saw this bug too, but it seems to be a different problem, as he wont take any searches or entering a full domain name (neither with www.xyz.com or just an ending like .com / even setting an http:// in front doesnt seem to work... )

I think I encounter the same bug.

Steps to reproduce:

0. Install Firefox on Fedora 26/27 using an fresh installation without any addons
1. Press ctrl-t to open new tab
2. Start writing stuff (no suggestions appears)
3. Press Enter

Actual results:

Most of times, it seems to work, but sometimes not. I need to close and re-open a new tab, or use "+" sign to have a responsive address bar.

Expected results:

I expect to have suggestions and to go to location when pressing Enter.

Please check the suggestion in comment 1, in case it helps.
Bug 1438329 should have fixed the last known instance of this in Firefox 60, so I'm marking it as WFM. If when FF 60 is released   you still find this problem, please file a new bug.
