Hi,

In the project that I'm currently working on (http://hapnin.com), I'm
getting an exception in Firebug every time I load the page. It says:

[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80540006
[nsIStreamListener.onDataAvailable]" nsresult: "0x80540006
(<unknown>)" location: "JS frame ::
file:///Users/jsuder/Library/Application%20Support/Firefox/Profiles/6pyg8shu.default/extensions/fir...@software.joehewitt.com/components/firebug-channel-listener.js
:: anonymous :: line 107" data: no]

Do you know what this is about? (I'm running Firefox 3.5 rc2, Firebug
1.4b3)

I fixed this yesterday based on code from Christian Biesinger from
Firefox team. Will be in 1.5a7 and 1.4b4.

because this is critical and i absolutely, positively do not want to
roll back to FF 3.0.

Still happens... "[Exception... "Component returned failure code:

I am getting this same type of error with Firefox 3.5 and Firebug
1.4.0b4.

<pre>
[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005
(NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIStreamListener.onStartRequest]" nsresult:
"0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame ::

:: anonymous :: line 144" data: no]
[Break on this error] this.listener.onStartRequest(request,
requestContext);\n
</pre>

Please update to 1.4b5, http://getfirebug.com/releases.

The back story here is that originally trapped these exceptions so you
would not see them. Then we discovered that the stream listener API
requires that exceptions be passed along. So we passed them along.
Then we discovered that the API is that you should cancel the request
if you get an exception. Needless to say I'm not too fond of this
API.

You won't see the exceptions in 1.4b5; I hope we are doing the right
thing...

The error is gone in 1.4b5 -- thanks!

However, and maybe this is intended behavior, but I noticed in both
1.4b5 and 1.4b3, when inspecting an element and hovering over elements
in the DOM tree, a GET request to the server is made (for the same
page). I'm fairly certain this never happened in prior versions of
Firebug. Is this by design?

No this is not by design. Please post a specific test case to
