709714 - After you exit Private Browsing Mode, loop the query master password and logs in to restart the program

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Alexander]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0
Build ID: 20111104165243

Steps to reproduce:

I went to Firefox
Enter the master password to automatically fill in forms authentication
Opt for Private Browsing Mode
I came out of private browsing


Actual results:

Firefox prompts for master password
Enter, after that prompts you to enter again, and so I tried it 5 times in a row, but I think these requests, an infinite loop
In the end, click Cancel, respectively passwords on sites not substituted
Helps only restart Firefox


Expected results:

Firefox should have taken a master password and it did not ask for more until the program is running

Alexander -> Is your homepage set to a page that requires the master password? When you exit private browsing, are there multiple tabs open?

Comment 2

[Alexander]

Tim -> Yes, and first of the tab require a password ".htpasswd" to access phpMyAdmin

So only 1 tab requires it, but the master password prompt just loops?

Comment 4

[Alexander]

I tried came out of Private Browsing tabs that require no password, then open a tab and get the same cycle the master password.

Does the issue still occur if you start Firefox in Safe Mode? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode

How about with a new, empty profile? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Basic%20Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile

I've tested, but the bug still persists, do not always, even under the same conditions different conditions. Recently, a new problem, when the transition to private mode, the current page is akivnoy and all ostalnye vanish, while if the exit from the private mode, and enter again, then everything is fine, but then stumbled on an old problem. I try not to use private mode.
