Firefox Home (1.1.1) not working with sync server full !
Franz Skale
Dear list,
Firefox Home Iphone App ist not working with syncserver-full from the hg
repository.
The Firefox Sync works but the iphone app (1.1.1) tells me "username not
found" when i enter the details.
I found out,that the app requests
https://servername.domain.com/1.0/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/node/weave.
The Server then throws a 404 error.
I found no reference in the source to the URL.
Please tell me what to be done, to get the iphone app working with the
weave sync sever.
Thanks in advance
Franz

Hi,
my setup:
server-full from the hg default branch.
Working: FF 10.0.2 (sync setup)
the last version (before hp update) worked with the firefox home iphone am.
this version now isn't accepting the username/password/sync key provided
in the setup screen.
My server has a commercial ssl cert by the way.
Details on the iphone setup using a custom sync server (server-full
default branch): (already setup the sync with ff 10.0.2)
i fill out the details, account,password and sync key along with the server.
After one second following appears on the iphone: Username not found
And on the apache server only one line in the accesslog:
GET /user/1.0/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/node/weave HTTP/1.1" 404 581 "-"
"Firefox Home 1.1.1 (iPhone; iPhone OS 5.0.1; de_AT)"
When i do the same procedure on an other browser: (FF 10.0.2 ther browser)
"GET /user/1.0/a HTTP/1.1" 200 581 "-" "Firefox/10.0.2
FxSync/1.13.0.20120215223356.desktop"

So the iphone app is not requesting the right url to check, that the
user exists in the store.
I found a test script in the deps directory which refers to the url
/node/weave.

You can see that behavior from the other browser below, so it seems like it's something quirky in FF Home that may have changed in the last update.

I had seen this same errors also when I did my first setup of
server-full. But after sorting out some stuff with Toby, I got it
working. See my "Mozilla Custom Sync Server Installation on
FreeBSD" [1] guide.
[1] http://www.wenks.ch/fabian/mozilla-custom-sync-server/
It is important to have done the 'hg clone ...' after 06.
February 2012.

In the etc/sync.conf (with my guide it is in
etc/mozilla-sync.conf) the following section needs to be set
correctly:
[nodes]
fallback_node = https://mozilla-sync.example.com/

Just follow my install guide, after this Firefox Home 1.1.1 does
work.

Hi,
you forgot to mention, that you must set that value in the FF config:
1.) about:config
2.) services.sync.clusterURL == services.sync.serverURL
Then the sync process works.
Why, the services.sync.clusterURL isn't set automatically via initial
sync request ?
Thanks

Hi,
thanks it works now.
But now the reCaptache feature isn't working anymore.
I'am feeling quite uncomfortable without Captcha.
Perhaps anyone knows a solution for the problem:
Details:
GET /misc/1.0/captcha_html HTTP/1.1" 404 500 "-" "Mozilla/5.0
(Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.7; rv:10.0.2) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.2"
Of course, i enable captcha and generated a reCaptcha Keypair.
King regards

hi Franz,
I was seeing this exact issue with all Firefox clients before I upgraded
my server to the latest release, not sure if it's the issue you're
seeing, but it sounds similar.
1. Make sure you've updated, there was a bug I came across that caused
this issue, I opened a bug report about it:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=727395
Turned out to be a duplicate of a known issue that was fixed in late
Feb: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721558
2. Make sure fallback_node is properly set, in the new [nodes]
configuration example - see the latest sample configurations in trunk
for example.
regards,
jethro

Sorry, I can not help you here, I do not use the Captcha. I think
if the URL of your Sync Server it not known to the public, then
nobody will (ab)use your server. So it does not matter if there
is a Captcha or not.
Maybe somebody else on this mailing list is able to help you with
the Captcha.

I did not forget this, it was not needed with my installation.
Probably this is only needed, when there was already a setup with
an other sync server (eg. from Mozilla, or with the old weave
server) running.
Before I started to connect my Firefox to my new sync server, I
did deactivate the old weave setup in the Preferences and even
restarted Firefox.

This should be done automatically. Is in the [nodes] section the
'fallback_node' set correctly?

Hi Jethro,
i am sorry to say, that the FF Home Iphone App throws an error on
connecting to the msync server.
So it's not working.
Logfile on the webserver:
==> /var/log/apache2/sync-error.log <==
"GET /1.1/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/info/collections HTTP/1.1" 200
227 "-" "Firefox Home 1.1.1 (iPhone; iPhone OS 5.0.1)"

Error on FF Home on Iphone:
Communication to the server failed with error (5)

Hi, i now applied rpm-1.0.2 tag.
Now, after initial setup following value is appended to the
services.sync.clusterURL:
{"passwords": 1331112366.22, "crypto": 1331079682.38, "forms":
1331112308.26, "meta": 1331079817.77, "bookmarks": 1331112304.31,
"prefs": 1331112366.83, "history": 1331113887.45}
But this should be: https://sync.example.com/

Hi Jethro,
i also tried your hotfix mentioned in the bug report.
No changes.
No i did a GET Reuquest on the following url:
https://mysyncserver.example.com/user/1.0/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/node/weave
Output:
{"passwords": 1331123182.01, "tabs": 1331123183.25, "clients": 1331123043.54, "crypto": 1331114659.64, "forms": 1331123273.69, "meta": 1331114721.81, "bookmarks": 1331123101.81, "prefs": 1331123182.64, "history": 1331123175.55}
This has nothing to do with the fallback_node in the config file.

So, that there's no anwser over the week i want to ask, how to debug the wrong value sent via syncreg.
Since i setup a new server (yesterday), after deployment of the exact same sync.conf in the rpm-1.0.2 branch, i can tell that the value of fallback_node is not provided.
The quota values are provided so that when setup a new sync account. you must configure about:config dureing the process of initial setup.
Manually adding works, but the iphone captches another problem. (CryptoManager).
