Seems like Firefox checks the plug-in, doesn't flag it bad, but denies access in some way to XP functions, causing the plug-in to mis-behave.Īnd the pending crash reports (3 files:. No effect.įirefox latest 27.0.1 was successfully installed on 15th Feb, and game ran OK on 16th. The plug-in was unchanged, but I downloaded it again just in case. I remember a pop-up that day saying Firefox was checking for outdated plug-ins, so that's the current suspect for culprit. Last failure was on 17th Feb, which coincided with a Firefox crash. The PCs run the game for a few days or weeks before the plug-in fails.
#Star stable download size full
Only a full partition delete and re-install of system gets it going again. Have re-installed both game and Firefox without removing it. Seems to be peculiar to the WinXP Home SP3 and Firefox combination only.īeen chasing this bug for months. Yet I have 3 out of 4 similar PCs with it.
The plug-in coder has no idea why, says it's a very rare bug.
#Star stable download size install
This all runs fine, but after the updates are downloaded 100% the plug-in seems to get a further report that no files exist or this is a first install so it continues to download the whole 433 MB again, takes 35 mins to log in before you can play. Plug-in uses standard windows get file date/size function. I've been talking to the plug-in coder who tells me that the plug-in downloads as follows: The game is installed locally, 443MB of game object in one folder. Is there any known problem with Firefox auto-update or Mozilla Maintenance Service and Win XP ? But why are they pending? and where should I send them? I have found some firefox/crash reports/pending. Is there any known problem with Firefox auto-update or Mozilla Maintenance Service and Win XP ? The plug-in wasn't disabled or updated, as far as I can tell. Nothing else on that PC had changed, no new S/W and no apps run for first time. On 16th Feb Firefox, at start-up, did an automatic plug-in check on the latest failed PC. The plug-ins are the same version, 1.0.0.2, just different download/install dates, and I've cross-copied plug-in files and re-installed from scratch twice, all with no effect. The SSO coding team can't explain this problem, it's very rare, they say, but I have it 3 times now on 3 PCs. The 4th and last one has run OK since 20th November, so far anyway. One other PC started the same mis-behaviour after a few days, and one ran OK for 2-3 weeks but stopped last Monday 17th Feb. Runs fine then, after waiting 35 minutes to start, though. On one the StarStableOnline plug-in never seemed to run properly, it always re-installed the whole game at every log-in. I have 4 similar PCs running Win XP Home SP3 and firefox.
