Hi ,

I am trying the below explained scenario using Windows XP,Windows 7 desktop & Mozilla 19.0

I am trying to connect IPv6 url through "https://" connection ;but the request is not forwarding even after stopping the firewall.

The connection does not establish even after following the below steps : 

1.Tools->options->Advance->Network->setting->select NO proxy->ok

2.In the Location bar, type  about:config and press Enter
     network.dns.disablePrefetch;true
    network.dns.disableIPv6;false

  Note:- For same case "http://ipv6url/ ..." is working fine  ( IE , chrome is working fine for both http
and   https only faceing issue in mozilla)

Does anyone happens to know the steps to make it work??


Thanks RajKishore

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.

To Reset Firefox do the following:

  1. Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
  2. Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Thank you.

Hi, After doing "Reset Firefox" also the problem is not resolved.

It might just not be supported, or not compatible with the gecko engine.
