can you enable geo.wifi.logging.enabled and send me what shows up in the log?
(In reply to Doug Turner (:dougt) from comment #1)
> can you enable geo.wifi.logging.enabled ?

how ?
sorry i did not well explain.

there is no geo.wifi.logging.enabled parameter
i do not use wifi but an ethernet connection
oh, i understand.

I think this might be a dup of bug 887860.  I'll try to patch it soon!
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
the pb disappeared !

i did not modify my settings before and during the pb.

is it possible it was an external pb ? for example an isp pb.

i reopen this bug

again with openstreetmap.org and viamichelin.fr the pb is there

and

also same pb with ww.google.com/maps (new google map app)

go to settings
then
select menu option "my addresses"
then
click on the little point inside a little square for asking your localization
then
after a delay it says that it fails to find your position

no pb with chromium
Status: RESOLVED → REOPENED
Resolution: INVALID → ---
Version: 22 Branch → 26 Branch
pb still there with ff 27
Hardware: x86 → x86_64
settings about geolocation :

browser.geolocation.warning.infoURL;https://www.mozilla.org/%LOCALE%/firefox/geolocation/

geo.enabled;true

geo.wifi.uri;https://www.googleapis.com/geolocation/v1/geolocate?key=%GOOGLE_API_KEY%

perhaps there is apb with www.googleaips.com ?
also this pb occurs with a wifi connection
opensuse has resolved the pb

see how here
