Hi there! I recently created a mozilla.cfg file to lock the firefox preferences related to changing the homepage: The contents of mozilla.cfg is as follows: // lockPref("browser.startup.page", 1); lockPref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://www.google.com.au/firefox"); lockPref("pref.browser.homepage.disable_button.current_page", true); lockPref("pref.browser.homepage.disable_button.restore_default", true); lockPref("pref.browser.homepage.disable_button.bookmark_page", true); This works great! My homepage is locked, as is the buttons to change the homepage via bookmarks etc. However whenever I start firefox I get this message: Netscape.cfg/AutoConfig failed. Please contact your system administrator. Error: defaultPref failed: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED) [nsIPrefBranch.setBoolPref]" nsresult: "0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)" location: "JS frame :: prefcalls.js :: defaultPref :: line 91" data: no] But my preferences are locked and firefox works fine otherwise. Before when I just locked the homepage itself (so you can't type out a new one, but you could use the buttons such as "use current page" to change the homepage) it worked without any error message. Now that I have added those last 3 lines into mozilla.cfg I get that error message on startup. But everything works exactly as I wanted. What is the error message about, how do I fix it or how do I supress the message so it doesn't appear whever I start up. Thanks for your time!
