"Permission denied" on initial page load (i.e., before share-your-location prompt) #23

"Old" Android device during user testing last week. More details TBD.

Thanks for the screenshot, @lippytak.

  1. Had this phone previously been able to access the site or was it a first try?
  2. I notice that it's zoomed in; did you receive a share-your-location prompt before the error message appeared?
lippytak commented 10 years ago
  1. Many successful accesses before on the phone.
  2. I saw error message > covered by location prompt > said OK to location > error message was still there :(

@lippytak Are you still getting this error?

Related recent bug report from @jackaponte: "I'm getting an 'Error: Permission Denied' popup when visiting via Chromium [on an Android device]"

Actually, that error was in Chromium on my Linux machine (Linux Mint Debian Edition)!

@jackaponte: Noted! Thanks for the correction. :)
