links not working anymore in firefox 29
Environment:
- Host: Windows 7 Pro + Firefox 29. // IP = 10.0.0.4 - Virtualbox: Ubuntu 14.04 guest VM // Bridged IP = 10.0.0.5 ... my server is running in the guest VM on port 8080.
If I paste the link "10.0.0.5:8080/index.html" in the address bar and hit enter, I am able to reach the server just fine. However, I have a local index file (on the host) with just the following contents:
<body> <a href="http://10.0.0.5:8080/index.html"> Project Management Site </a> </body> </html>
If I navigate to this page using "localhost/index.html", I can see the link "Project Management Site". However, when I click on it, NOTHING HAPPENS !! It seems to just refresh the page or something. Even tried putting on firebug, but there is no output at all from firebug either in any of its panels. Tried "Open Link in New Tab". It just opens the same page (i.e., localhost/index.html and not the 10.0.0.5:8080/index.html).
With previous version firefox 28 and Google Chrome, I do not have this problem at all. I get immediate access to my server when clicking the link. Only firefox 29 is producing this problem.
Also, I had tried doing a javascript redirect in my localhost/index.html as:
<head> <script>
window.location.href="http://10.0.0.5:8080/index.html"
</script> </head>
But this seems to go into an infinite loop with the page constantly refreshing, but not getting to my final server destination. Again, this problem does not happen in firefox 28 or Google chrome. Something is definitely not right with firefox 29.

ok, just an update. In the firebug NET panel, when I try to redirect the page to final server, firebug shows that it actually gets the contents from the final server (10.0.0.5:8080/index.html), but it then immediately also fetches the contents of the starting page (the one that is supposed to do the redirect). I suppose that again does a redirect and it goes into a infinite loop.
Hello,
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache. Note: This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to. To clear cache and cookies do the following:
- Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
- Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
- Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
- From the details list, check Cache and Cookies and uncheck everything else.
- Now click the Clear now button.
Further information can be found in the Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

It worked for a while. Today I again see the same problem. 1 Hour later, the problem is gone. Will wait and see if that problem reappears. This is maddening (I've put a statement on my website that visitors may experience problems with FF29 and they should use another browser).
