Recent update caused scripts to not work anymore?

by Snapfoo :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message


I'm running FF 3.5.3 and recently had GM prompt me to update. After
this I noticed none of my scripts seem to execute anymore. I tried to
revert to the previous available version found at
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addons/versions/748 but was
confronted with a message about it being incompatible with 3.5.3.

Now, I'm fairly certain I was already running 3.5.3 before I updated
GM. Perhaps I'm missing something obvious about GM not "working" in
the first place. The icon is not grey, in case you were wondering, and
the namespaces are intact. I don't know. Any suggestions?

Upgrading to the latest version of GM on FF 3.5.3 caused my Pirates
autoplayer to crap out.  (Fortunately my MW autoplayer is fine!)  When
I try to go back to the previous version of GM, it says that it isn't
compatible with FF 3.5.3.  Funny thing is, my wife is also running
FF3.5.3 with the older (1/29/09) version of GM and it works just fine
and her Pirates autoplayer is also working.  I have to figure out some
way to install the previous version of GM with FF 3.5.3.

You can always disable "extensions.checkCompatibility" in about:config
(set it to false)
And it'll let you install older version of greasemonkey.

For some reason, I don't have this option, instead I have
"extensions.tabkit.checkCompatibility", which I assume is because I
have the TabKit extension installed.  I set this to false and tried
installing version 0.8.20090123.1 but still got the "Not compatibile
with Firefox 3.5.3" message.  Any other suggestions?

if you don't have it create it.

right click -> New -> Boolean -> "extensions.checkCompatibility" ->
False

Hm, tried that. Uninstalled GM in safe mode, reverted to older
version. Still didn't work. Did the update change a file somewhere?

I guess the next step is to reinstall FF.

I created the key as mentioned by vBm and simply installed the older version over the recent one. It worked like a charm.

Had to uninstall GM and FF 3.5.3, then reinstall GM and each script
individually to get them to work.

Thanks that was a easy fix I did install it Now how do I use the
options tab to see scripts. It seems I get a error there but It could
be that I dont have any sites in there yet?
I am a old Computer User back when there were BBS sites and there were
not many web sites up yet I think that was 1996 or so Right after I
graduated from College at St Petersburg College Dec 1996 AS Degree in
Electrical Engineering Technology. After that I opened a computer
business with a partner and started building custom computers and
doing networks. I stayed with this for many years until I became
disablied but I still like new things and I try and stay updated as I
can.
