Plugin Not Work in Firefox 38.7.0es
Re: Plugin Not Work in Firefox 38.7.0es
Hi,
Could you please check is you have installed Ranorex Automation or Ranorex Automation NG plugin in FF? The one with "NG" is a new plugin FF plugin, which I believe should be used with FF 40+ and the one without NG should be used with FF 39 and below (http://www.ranorex.com/forum/compatibil ... tml#p37154)
Also, check this post, stating that this kind of error is created by Firefox and not by Ranorex:
http://www.ranorex.com/forum/components ... tml#p19585
So you may need to reinstall Ranorex or Ranorex plugin in FF.

Re: Plugin Not Work in Firefox 38.7.0es
Hello everybody,
I would like to give you an update regarding the problem discussed above. The issue is based on a bug in Mozilla Firefox, more precise in all versions earlier than 40.
Mozilla stopped supporting versions earlier than 45, so we don't see a big chance that this bug will be fixed by Mozilla in the future.
To get more information about the versions supported by Mozilla ("Extended Support Release") please take a look at the web page Mozilla Firefox ESR Overview
Ranorex officially supports all Firefox versions which are supported by Mozilla itself in their Extended Support Releases (see link above). Please also take a look at the Ranorex release notes to check which Firefox version is supported in which Ranorex version.
If you update to the latest version of Firefox you should not have any issues.
Kind regards,
Ranorex Support Team
