The only change between 1.3.1 and 1.3.2 was to set the minVersion to
cause Firefox 2 users to get a message that 1.3 would not work for
them.

If you are using FF3.0.6 then you must have some problem unrelated to
1.3.2 upgrade.

I usually ask people to try a new Firefox profile first because it
will have a clean configuration, one that we can reproduce. If you
still have a problem in a new profile, then it could be a locale bug.
Finally it could be a firebug core bug.

For help on trying a new profile see the FAQ:

I'am experience the same behavior after upgrade to 1.3.2. I already
create a new profile but it does not work.

I've the same problem (with FF 3.0.6, FireBug 1.3.2) and a new profile
does not resolve the issue. Only with downgrade to FireBug 1.3.0 i can
load source without problem.

I think this is related to Issue 1425. I have committed a patch that
should fix this report and also 1425.
It'll be part of the next version.

Please try Firebug 1.3.3b1:
http://getfirebug.com/releases/firebug
This problem should be fixed.

Could anybody verify, please?

Check. Installing 1.3.3b1 did fix the "Failed to load source for
sourceFile top-level" problem that I was having.

having the same problem

i think the problem is introduced by firebug itself, as i found it
immediate after updating to 1.3.2, and at that time i have not had
firefox updated to 3.0.6

and today after my firefox updated to 3.0.6 the problem remains.

have tried 1.3.3b1 but still got "fail to load" error

i have tried some more old version and it seems the bug first come
with firebug 1.3.1b4. when reverted to 1.3.1b3, those js files can be
loaded correctly

test @windows 2k3 sp2 full patched, firefox 3.0.6

We'd really like to fix this if it's in 1.3.3b1. But we don't see this
problem and have no test cases to reproduce it.

I included a file which I was not able to load with 1.3.2 ans not with 1.3.3b1
It worked again with version 1.3.0
I hope this helps

Ernst, I have tried your file and it seems to be working fine for me.
Is there anything special I should do when trying to reproduce?

I have created an online test case with three problematic files
(config_boletim.js included):
http://www.janodvarko.cz/firebug/tests/1461/Issue1461.htm

Can you please try it?

With Firebug 1.3.0 it loaded
1.3.2 it failed
with firebug 1.3.3b1 it loaded3
This in your test case

I tried to load th file in my own application and it did not load
maybe there is another file that is causing this.

Later today i will try to create a test case to see if I can reproduce the error
in a plain HTML file

I also have the same problem with firebug 1.3.3b1 on several of my
sites. Let me know if I can help.

If you could attach your test case (the affected files) into
http://code.google.com/p/fbug/issues/detail?id=1461
...that would be very useful!

I think I have fixed all reported problems (will be in the next
version this week), so it would be awesome to see
if my patches also fixes your case.

Thanks!

The issue is still happening but it seems to be very sporadic -
sometimes it happens on a page and sometimes it doesn't. I havent
figured out what the difference is between when it works and when it
doesn't work. The other problem is that the HTML file for the page,
when selected in the script page, only loads the first 20 lines
sometimes or doesn't load anything at all - very odd.

Unfortunately this is part of a very large PHP/JavaScript/AJAX project
(10,000+ lines of javascript) and I can not really make a test case.

I should also add that simply refreshing the page will occasionally,
but not always, fix the problem.

Issues with 'Failed to load source for sourcefile' seem to be resolved
in the b2, but I still have issues with FB not loading the content of
the PHP page on the script tab when first loaded. Refreshing the page
once fixes the problem right away. (Not sure if I should start a new
topic for this?)

Unfortunately I can not give access to the application as we are
developing it for another company and would need to get signatures to
allow access to the application (per the company we are developing
for). PITA. I am using FB 1.3X.3b2 (don't think that's different
than you suggested). The problem is still happening - that is, the
problem where the source load of the PHP page does not load (except 3
lines) until I click refresh. Upon clicking refresh, no problems.

I have been having this problem for some time now with a few
apparently random javascript source files. Tonight, I finally had
enough and decided to investigate. After reading messages in this
thread, I upgraded my Firebug to 1.4x.0a12. To no avail: problem
remained.

FInally, I found out what was wrong. My web page uses UTF8 encoding,
and so do all related files (PHP, JS, etc). The ones that did not load
in firebug were the ones that were accidentally saved with ISO8859
encoding.

Your problem may be different, but using encoding consistent with the
web page solved the problem for me.

1.4a12 has not been updated for these problems. Please try Firebug
1.3.3b2, It would be helpful to know if that version works for you.

Just tried it with Firebug 1.3.2. Same result. I can make the problem
appear and go away at will by just changing page encoding on the
linked JS file. To test properly, ensure the cache is disabled.
