[Tool] FFaM v1.0.2.11


Recommended Posts

Excelent AddonOn, please...

What is the last Firefox Addon Maker supports Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.20 and where I can download it if it exists ... Thanks, greetings

Atte Germangelv

I'll see if I can locate a Mozilla website that is hosting it. If I can locate one, then I will add it into the next update.

***EDIT***

I will add it to the list for the next version and I'll try to get it in there.

The files are available from the Mozilla ftp. There are a couple of problems with using the ftp and the older versions. The ftp is for "developer's" and they often close it to scripts(wget). I have added a few strings to the wget command and that may help. The other is that they are no longer updating it and therfore the language selection is not the same. This will take some work as I have to move the language id's out of the script and individual text files for each version. The newer versions having many more more languages available than the previous versions, etc.

I have already been considering this, but this may not make it into the next update

Thanks

Ive been having problems with the new release. For some reason it will not install any of my addons with any of the versions I've tried. Also for some reason when I build an installer using any of the 3.6 betas I cant install any addons because it says that its not compatible. I can't use the nightly tester tools because its not compatible. Ive edited the compatibility check in the about:config and tried editing the install.rdf but have had no luck.

Here are the logs. I built the installer on 7. When I install it on 7 it doesn't install the addons and every addon i try to install says its incompatible. I tried installing it on XP and it installed all my addons and I had no compatibility issues installing any other addons.

still have the same problem as before. The installer wont install my addons under 7 and when I install any addon it says its not compatible with firefox. Everything works fine when I install it on XP.

After your last post, I PM'd you several questions. You never responded.

Just PMed back. It worked after changing EnableExtensionManager to 1 in the application.ini.

See, the install script is working properly on XP. On your Win7 machine do you have UAC disabled?

If not, then right click and run as admin.

Did the shortcuts get created?

Are you on dial-up?

If UAC is enabled, you must as admin.The shortcuts that were created were created when firefox is set as default browser. None of the other vbscripts are allowed system access because of the UAC. The vbscripts create the requested shortcuts, delete the shortcuts created by default and fix the extensions setting that is needed for silent install.

Mr. Johnyboy,

If Not objFSO.FileExists( ProfilePath & "\prefs.js" ) Then

ProfilePath

var = "true"

End If

barko = "false" on this line (1710) is called in original script subroutine "Downgrade" which makes ERROR in my situation and above posts, i replace this with dummy line and then it work OK.

If var = "true" Then

ValidateSettings

Else

strMbox = MsgBox(Text048,68,Text049)

End If

Cheers :-D

I have removed all of the literal "true" "false" statements for the next update and that should fix this error.

But, this is not the real error, the error is later in Sub Downgrade. My guess is you are testing with "Local system" checked and the uVersion value is "" causing the error. This is also fixed for the next update.

Thanks

Alright, I have asked this before and received no support. So, I'm asking again.

I really dislike having to post an update just so that I can get someone to tell me of a bug they have found. I need some volunteers to join me and bug test each version, before I make it public. This will reduce the number of errors in the public releases.

If you value this script and you have a little free time, please PM for the details.

Thanks
