"Open this site in your assigned container?" not working #1703
Comments
The issue appears on Linux and Windows as well as OSX noted above. I use temporary containers as well, occasionally opening "pinned" sites in a temporary container to have a clean state with regards to cookies, etc. This is no longer possible; choosing to open in current container, the container is switched to the assigned permanent container. |
Yes, I can confirm that this issue is also in my Debian 10 Buster. I think it is related to synchronization problems: the synchronization becomes very slow and wants to set gmail on a container, even if you delete it from it. Not even new bookmarks can be synced! Disabling this plugin "solves" all issues! 😢 |
Same thing on Archlinux. |
Same here too! It always opens it in the assigned container, despite choosing to leave it in it's existing container. Windows 10, FF 75.0, Multi container v 6.2.3 |
Just tested it on a computer that was still on 74.0.1, it works fine, upon updating to 75.0 it immediately broke it. |
What are the steps to reproduce the bug? |
Create a container, let's call it CBC. Open a new tab in the CBC container. Go to cbc,ca Check the "always open in this container" checkbox. Open another tab in a different container Go to cbc.ca When prompted if you want to open it in the CBC container, opt to leave it in it's existing container. Watch as it miraculously opens in the CBC container anyways. Curse, punch your keyboard, cry, weep, give up on life, and become a hermit. The last step is optional. |
Should this be reported to Firefox's bugzilla? |
Maybe? Not sure, because there was an update to multi containers today, and this is when I noticed the problem. It seems other people are in the same boat. So it may be FF or it may be Multi-Containers... Or maybe even both. Cross posing it is probably a good idea. |
a workaround is to open the container you want to use.. for instance, if you want to open a Gmail account:
|
@fmiyata that doesn't seem to work for me. When I click that link, a new tab opens for gmail with the same problem |
it shouldn't be opening in a new tab.. it's working here on 2 pcs (both Windows 10), for all my containers.. |
I've had some limited success with the switch container extension, but usually, I want to catch a web-page before it gets a chance to hit my container with all the cookies and whatnot, for tracking and privacy purposes. |
If I click on a link that is not assigned to a specific container it opens in the same tab. When I click on a link that is assigned, a new tab is opened and it doesn't work. Is there a way to remove the "always open in this container" for urls? because that would be a possible workaround. |
Same problem here. |
@DeadlySurprise made a quick fix for this particularly nasty workflow-busting bug. I've merged it and will release the fix on Monday. |
Just did some testing, on FF 73.0.1, the problem still occurs with the current version of multi-account containers, 6.2.3. So maybe it's a bug with the extension. |
Submitted 6.2.5 to AMO. Should be reviewed & distributed soon. |
Just got the updated 6.2.5, and I confirm that it now works again. Thanks for the quick resolution! |
still not working here.. actually it's worse now.. 1 - It doesn't prompt anymore: 2 - the workaround I mentioned before, also doesn't work anymore (Windows 10, FF 75.0, Multi container v 6.2.5) |
@fmiyata That sounds like the behaviour if the "Remember my decision for this site" option was selected when the prompt was accepted; version 6.2.5 has fixed the issue for me. Try going to the site that isn't prompting and uncheck and re-check the |
@sjagoe You were right, it worked.. Thanks! I didn't notice this checkbox before.. I was trying to access gmail.com (which redirects to google.com subdomains) |
It absolutely doesn't remember when I check "Remember my decision for this site" checkbox. |
@samoylenkodmitry No problem. Just check configuration of the container that your site is opening in. If this container's list of sites will have this site then you could remove it and it will fix the problem. :) |
On OS X, since new Firefox update (75.0) I am not able to open the same page in two different containers, for example 2 gmail accounts.
