I am seeing a generic icon appearing instead of Firefox logo post installation on Mac.

I have created the following script to automate downloading the latest FF version for Mac

  1. !/bin/bash
  1. Function to get the latest download URL for Firefox Community

get_latest_Firefox_url() { 

   # Replace the following line with a command or script to fetch the latest download URL
   # For example, you might use curl or wget to get the download link from the Firefox website
   # Example: LATEST_URL=$(curl -s https://example.com/Firefox-latest-url)
   LATEST_URL="https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-latest-ssl&os=osx&lang=en-US&_gl=1*1mxslk8*_ga*NzMzNzU0NDM3LjE2OTY5MTIyMzY.*_ga_MQ7767QQQW*MTY5NjkxMjIzNi4xLjEuMTY5NjkxMjI3MS4wLjAuMA.."
   echo "$LATEST_URL"

}

  1. Function to download and install the latest version of Firefox Community

install_Firefox() { 

   # Get the latest download URL
   Firefox_URL=$(get_latest_Firefox_url)

   # Download the latest version
   curl -L -o "/tmp/Firefox-latest.dmg" "$Firefox_URL"

   # Mount the downloaded DMG file
   hdiutil attach "/tmp/Firefox-latest.dmg"

   # Find the .app file inside the mounted DMG
   Firefox_APP=$(find /Volumes -name "Firefox.app" -type d)

   # Install Firefox from the mounted DMG
   cp -R "$Firefox_APP" /Applications/

   # Unmount the DMG
   hdiutil detach "/Volumes/Firefox" -force

   # Cleanup the temporary files
   rm "/tmp/Firefox-latest.dmg"

   echo "Firefox has been installed successfully!"

}

  1. Run the installation function

install_Firefox


This is using the "Try downloading again." URL ==> https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-latest-ssl&os=osx&lang=en-US&_gl=1*aoew3g*_ga*NzMzNzU0NDM3LjE2OTY5MTIyMzY.*_ga_MQ7767QQQW*MTY5NjkxMjIzNi4xLjEuMTY5NjkxNDE1OS4wLjAuMA..

What could be the problem?

I am using Jamf PRO to deploy this in a Jamf policy.

Please help!

Thank you, Dave

I don't think that you need all the extras:

I assume that you didn't copy the icon from the installer, but I do not know how this works on Mac. Can you modify/inspect the location of this icon and possibly compare this to a manual installation ?

I think the whole URL address is needed for the download to begin.

Not sure how to inspect the icon location since it is downloading the whole entire .dmg installer.

The installation works fine, Firefox launches as expected. Not sure what the difference is between my script and the manually as it is supposed to mimc those manual steps.

Would love to hear from the experts!
