Also does not work on up to date ubuntu 24.04 LTS in firefox. Tried linux.zip and linux-bunjs-beta.zip and they install successfully but the "Check Connection" always fails.

Have you tried resetting your network system? Le ven. 24 mai 2024, 05:16, yoyoma2 ***@***.***> a écrit :

Rebooted and trying to use the add-on still it brings up the "One Last Step" page even though the ">>> host is ready <<<" appeared after installing the native client.
The "Check Connection" button on that page says: "Cannot find the native client. Follow the 3 steps to install the native client".
This is a vanilla ubuntu 24.04 and firefox installation.

This helps on Ubuntu installed via snap :

ln -s ~/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/ ~/.mozilla

ln -s ~/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/ ~/.mozilla

That didn't work for ubuntu 24.04 LTS. That command created a ~/.mozilla/.mozilla symbolic link. Did you mean?

ln -s ~/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla ~

The symlink gives two paths to the com.add0n.node.json installed by install.sh. What are the two paths that work on your system with your symlink?

$ ls ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/com.add0n.node.json
/home/myuser/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/com.add0n.node.json
$ ls ~/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/com.add0n.node.json
/home/myuser/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/com.add0n.node.json

I do have rather new install of Ubuntu 24.04. and it works.

On Ubuntu default FF is installed via snap, so it's config files are not in the directory script expects.
This this if fixed by creating symbolic link - script expects in at ~/.mozilla - which is default location if you install FF from .deb.

There is also this issue #119 - you might need to to fix run.sh script accordingly.

Manually applying the change from issue #119 then re-running install.sh fixed it.

I also kept the .mozilla symbolic link you previously suggested. My ubuntu 24.04 LTS is an upgrade so if a ~/.mozilla folder already exists it needs to be removed and replaced by the symlink.

Thanks for your help @izderadicka!

Edit:
One ubuntu 24.04 LTS machine refused to work so i installed nodejs with sudo apt install nodejs and that fixed it. The version installed by the addon is older than the ubuntu 24.04 LTS version.

$ ~/.config/com.add0n.node/node -v
v10.16.3
$ /usr/bin/node -v
v18.19.1
