Firefox 3.6 and Admin console hang

Post by quietas »

I've been noticing that the Admin pages will not load after you log in when using Firefox 3.6. I have verified this on 3 computers, running both XP and Win7.
Has anyone else noticed this?

I can confirm that I face the same issue on iMacs running Firefox 3.6.2. I don't experience the same issue with a Linux desktop running Firefox 3.0.6, nor with a Windows VM running IE8 and Firefox 3.6.3.

I have run into this a few times with my deployment, never have managed to fully track down the reason.

Few tips that have worked in the past,
Check the public service url is valid. Some of the javascript is a little dumb.

Clear the browsers cache.

Restart the zimbra services, not a clue why this worked but I had 3 out of 5 machines unable to connect after a restart of the services they all worked fine.

I had this happen Yesterday for first time.
I had set TIMEOUT on the Advanced tab for the effected user to 0 for all 3 timeouts to be able to edit my preferences in Zimbra Desktop 2.0 ( there is a bug on it ).
When I logged in as a different administrator no problems.
I reset timeouts to the prior values, and was then able to log-in as the original user.

I am having the same issue with the "Loading..." screen. When I attempt to log-in to the admin console using firefox 3.6.3 it hangs forever and never logs me in, however, I can log in using IE.....?

Since I have loaded NE 6.0.6 my issues have gone away. I can now log in reliably each and every time on the several computers I have tried.

I installed the patch for 6.0.6 and it seemed to clear up the problem!
