Did you install the CoApp with the .pkg or the .dmg ?
I have tried both options. The final install as per screenshot is by .dmg
When using the .dmg, did you execute the required additional commands ?
If you refer to the forcing Mac OS to run the app, then yes i have forced it to run. If there is something else then it is not clear.
Can you check the content of the file /Library/Application Support/Mozilla/NativeMessagingHosts/net.downloadhelper.coapp.json
or, if you install the app in user mode, ~/Library/Application Support/Mozilla/NativeMessagingHosts/net.downloadhelper.coapp.json
?
Referring to this documentation.
{ "name": "net.downloadhelper.coapp", "description": "Video DownloadHelper companion app", "path": "/Applications/net.downloadhelper.coapp.app/Contents/MacOS/bin/net.downloadhelper.coapp-mac-64", "type": "stdio", "allowed_extensions": [ "weh-native-test@downloadhelper.net", "{b9db16a4-6edc-47ec-a1f4-b86292ed211d}" ] }
Sry forgot to say i don't have file locations:-
/Library/Application Support/Mozilla/ManagedStorage/
And i confirm i am running Mozilla version 57 on a fresh install today
Ok, i can see that problem on Mac. I'm on it.
I found and fixed the problem. Release 1.0.10 of the companion app is available directly from github in the release page. You may need to restart the add-on from the settings (More > Restart add-on) in order to reset a possible 1.0.9 version still running.
Had the Firefox extension Video DownloadHelper running fine and it just stopped working. Did a remove and reinstall of both Download helper and Coapp but on each occasion it fails to verify the existence of the coapp. I even did a fresh install of Firefox and a flush of all residual files before reinstall. The recheck button does nothing
And I have verified the files are in place
Any help please
