Fails in Firefox, even when not in private browsing mode #1418

I'm experiencing #1302, but like others I am not in private browsing mode and my tracking policies are all set very loose.

Error: Can't connect to IndexedDB. localDbSvc.js:27:12
t/r.onerror
TypeError: ServiceWorker script at https://stackedit.io/sw.js for scope https://stackedit.io/ encountered an error during installation.

This is Firefox 63.0.1 64-bit on Fedora Linux 28.

It would really help a lot if this error showed up in the UI.

same happens on google Chrome, but it works in private mode

IsmailMarmoush commented 5 years ago

For those on chrome: (maybe similar can work for firefox) Go to .config/google-chrome Search and Delete the stackedit indexedDB folder

I get this error anytime on private browsing.

I've experienced the same. I solve the problem by going to about:config and enable all settings related to indexedDB

@juyujeng's solution worked for me (Firefox on Windows, in a private browsing).

To elaborate a bit:

In Firefox in a private window, StackEdit.io wouldn't load after clicking the START WRITING button. In the dev tools I was seeing Can't connect to IndexedDB.

For me this solved the issue:

  1. Go to about:config
  2. Enable this setting: dom.indexedDB.privateBrowsing.enabled
