Hi Sean,

Could you take a look at this?

Thanks.

Looks like the issue is https://chat.openai.com/backend-api/conversation is blocked? I can't reproduce this locally.

Wellington, can you open about:logging and use nsHttp:5,ORB:5 as the log module, click Set Log Modules and then Start Logging? Next, you can visit the chat.openai.com again and reproduce the problem. Lastly, you want to click Stop logging and share the profile to here.

This way we can see which requests were blocked and the reasons of the blockage. Please note that the collected information contains the URLs that you are visiting which can be sensitive, so maybe you want to do this in a clean profile.

I am also getting this issue but on a payment site for one of my credit cards. has been happening for about 5 months. If you would like I did a log with above instructions but I did it in troubling shooting mode (didn't help the problem). For me I have run into it only on this one site so far.

I also just tried the openAI site and had no issues. sounds like this may be one of those hit and miss bugs.

Allen, have you confirmed that if you set browser.opaqueResponseBlocking to false, the site start to functioning? Have you tried the latest Nightly? We recently had landed some patches which might fixed the problem.

If latest Nightly doesn't work and browser.opaqueResponseBlocking=false fixes your issue, can you please file a new bug and needinfo me?

Comment 5

[Allen Adamson]

Nightly is up to date. Changed the setting and still doesn't work.

[Sean Feng [:sefeng]]

okay, so it's probably not caused by ORB then. Just to confirm, the payment site was not working for you right? If so, can you still file a bug for your issue?

Close as incomplete, because there is no response.
