Why can't I use ChromeIpass in the browser Chromium and Passifox in the browser Firefox on one PC? #686

Hello. Why can't I use ChromeIpass in the browser Chromium and PassIfox in the browser Firefox on one PC? I keep getting authorization failure in KeePass 2.28 on Linux Mint 19 (Mate DE). If I enter the code and get the authorization of the ChromeIpass add-on in the browser Chromium, I get the failure of the authorization of the Passifox add-on in the browser Firefox. How can I fix this? If I install another add-on (Kee aka KeeFox) in the Firefox browser to work with the KeePass password Manager, then this problem will not occur, but I would like to use this PassIfox add-on. I think it's more comfortable.

This is possible, it's how I ran for a long time until the firefox upgrade broke passifox for me. Are you giving them the same identifier? If you do, you may end up with one overwriting the other. When you connect, try calling the chrome key 'chrome' and the firefox key 'firefox'. Since I use various computers, I also add the machine hostname to the identifier, which means identifiers never clash.
