Broken and "Failed to load board configuration. Connection Error" #1746

Open ProfessorInternet opened 6 years ago

ProfessorInternet commented 6 years ago

Hi, today when I tried to load any thread from any board or the main site everything is broken and white and I get this message at the top of the page "Failed to load board configuration. Connection Error"

Now I tried some fixes and none of them worked so I tried uninstalling whatever ad blocker I had, greasemonkey and same thing

Okay then that was on firefox so I tried with just the internet explorer, same thing

So I want to know what is this? Is this some new kind of ramsomware malware virus thing? Don't be fooled by my nickname I actually have no idea how internet works

What happens if you try to visit https://a.4cdn.org/boards.json directly?

ProfessorInternet commented 6 years ago

It shows this https://imgur.com/a/45A66 Is that how is it supposed to work?

btw Merry Christmas!

ccd0 commented 6 years ago

Yes, that's how it should look. Are you still getting the message? This could just be a connection error, like the message said.

Merry Christmas to you too!

If you're still having the problem, try temporarily disabling all other extensions and userscripts so if you can see if one of them is causing a conflict.

ProfessorInternet commented 6 years ago

Yes I am still getting it, I only have adblocker ultimate tried disabling it and nope same thing.

What version of Firefox? What userscript manager and what version?

Does it happen in a fresh profile? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles

ProfessorInternet commented 6 years ago

Yes it also happened on a new profile

Firefox quantum 57.0.2 Greasemonkey 4.1

impman commented 6 years ago

This is also occurring to me, with auto-update broken as well. Tested on a new profile with zero other addons or userscripts, still occurs. Tried both Greasemonkey and Violentmonkey (in isolation), both give the same issues.

Firefox 57.0.2 Greasemonkey 4.1 Violentmonkey 2.8.23

Edit: Also broken in Chrome, 63.0.3239.132 Tampermonkey 4.5

It may be related but when I press f12 and go to the console I get these messages Loading failed for the Githubissues.
