Activation of a social provider results in a sidebar which shows a "connection" error. This is possibly related to bug 887206, perhaps the same underlying issue, but this bug focuses on the inability to activate the first time, which is more critical. 1. Start with a clean profile 2. Goto https://mozsocial.cliqz.com/ 3. Activate 4. Sidebar shows error "Nightly is unable to connect with Cliqz right now" Restarting Firefox fixes the problem. This problem started to appear in version 25.0a1 (2013-06-25).

I've never seen it. Did you look for an console messages?
I get a "localStorage" is not defined error (sorry, copy in the error console doesn't work). I don't any error when I restart though.
