What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. On Firefox 3.51 2. Use Firebug 1.4.2 3. Install FirePHP 0.3.1

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The expected console output starts to show, but then disappears after a very short time (I see about a full screen of console and then blank). If I disable FirePHP, the other normal logging does show within the console, so it is constrained to FirePHP.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? 0.3.1 on Windows XP.

Please provide any additional information below. This behavior happened after the update from Firebug 1.4.0, so it seems to have been caused by their update.

Jon, enable tab "net"

It is enabled. Fortunately, the net output shows, but the console blanks out after the first screenful.

If I revert back to 1.4.0, everything works normally.

I hope to get a chance to look at this in the next few days.

I can confirm this bug on my windows test system. I'll see what I can do to get this fixed ASAP.

Please downgrade to Firebug 1.4.0 as a workaround in the meantime.

I use firephp 0.3.1 and firebug 1.4.2 on FF3.5.2, i have a page with own logging, but also incorporating google maps. The Header my page sends looks like this:

Date: Wed, 05 Aug 2009 23:44:38 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) DAV/2 SVN/1.4.6 PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5.6 with Suhosin-Patch mod_ruby/1.2.6 Ruby/1.8.6(2007-09-24) mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.8g mod_wsgi/1.3 Python/2.5.2 X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5.6 X-Wf-Protocol-1: http://meta.wildfirehq.org/Protocol/JsonStream/0.2 X-Wf-1-Plugin-1: http://meta.firephp.org/Wildfire/Plugin/FirePHP/Library-FirePHPCore/0.3 X-Wf-1-Structure-1: http://meta.firephp.org/Wildfire/Structure/FirePHP/FirebugConsole/0.1 X-Wf-1-1-1-1: 107|[{"Type":"LOG","File":"\/srv\/www\/web78\/web\/application\/libraries\/firephp.php","Line":511},"Warning!"]| X-Wf-1-Index: 1 Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=92 Connection: Keep-Alive Transfer-Encoding: chunked Content-Type: text/html

200 OK

Which looks OK to me, and should give me my "Warning!" test message. But nothing is displayed in the console. Also downgrading to firebug 1.4.0 as suggested did not help. Interesting enough, i see firebug output from the Google Maps, so that seems to work. Must be limitied to firephp?

It happend in linux version too.

@stefan.pfeiffer I am not quite sure what the problem could be.

I am experiencing the same problem. Additionally, if I have the "Net" tab disabled in Firebug, I do not see any output. If I have the "Net" tab enabled in Firebug, I see firePHP output that then disappears as described in the initial post by job.buford.

My version, OS details are: - Firebug version = 1.4.2 - FirePHP version = 0.3.1 - Mozilla Firefox UserAgent = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090729 Firefox/3.5.2 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) - Mozilla Firefox Build ID = 20090729225027 - Operating System = Windows XP Pro SP2

Hope this helps track down the source of the issue. I will revert to Firebug 1.4.0 as suggested until a fix is found.

I tried a fix but I don't think it is working properly. You can download it here:

http://www.firephp.org/DownloadRelease/FirePHP-FirefoxExtension-0.4.beta.1

I am making good progress on 1.0 and hope to have an alpha ready very soon.

Issue 127 has been merged into this issue.

the mention interclue is missing ? is that not the issue ? FirePHP is working as expected (Firebug 1.4.2) with interclue disabled for my development site.

I am sorry, based on your last message I thought fb 1.4.2 was in fact the issue. Feel free to add the comment back in.

this also happens on mac with versions ff 3.5.3, fb 1.4.2 fphp 0.3.1

Also happens with latest Firebug 1.4.3

(Windows XP/Firefox 3.5.3/FirePHP 0.3.1)

I think have the same problem with my FirePHP : FireBug 1.4.3, FirePHP 0.3.1, FF 3.5.3, Windows Seven.

Same problem here, not sure if this is caused by this bug though. Normal logs seem to work just right, not in this case though: I registered a Smarty.Prefilter with a preg_replace call and a callback function. If I try to log out of those two functions, output shows for a second, then disappears again. Same happens when using print(); echo(); or similar functions in those two functions.

Well now after rethinking my issue, this might as well be a Smarty issue.

This appears to have been resolved with Firebug 1.4.5.

Does'nt work for me with Firebug 1.4.5 + Firefox 3.5.4 + Windows XP + FirePHP 0.3.1

I just updated to FF 3.5.5, FB 1.4.5, FPHP 0.3.1 so dunno if that combo is special.

Jon

Tryed with FF 3.5.5, it works sometimes, but not always.

I am using the combo FF 3.5.5, FB 1.4.5, FPHP 0.3.1 and I still the same bug.

Note that it always works on first page load, but not when you reload the page.

ff 3.5.4 fphp 0.3.1 works fine except when I install AdBlock Plus 1.1.1 disabled AdBlock Plus and everything works fine.

Same as 29--works on first load, not on reload. OSX FF 3.5.5 FB 1.4.5 FPHP 0.3.1

Please test: http://www.firephp.org/HQ/ReleaseCandidate.htm

There may still be the odd issue with Firebug 1.4.x (refresh should fix it) but with 1.5.x everything should work properly all the time.

This is working for me with FB 1.4.5, FF 3.5.5, Windows XP.

Thanks for the update.

This was happening to me apparently at random...had a hell of a time debugging it. Until I finally realized that my page calls doubleclick ads...and I have pandora in the background, and when pandora changes doubleclick ads, it clears the firebug console!

@joedevon That is a separate issue. Please file a new issue with links to software/services that are incompatible.

Comment deleted

OK I will...I'm still getting the problem though...it seems much better w/o Pandora, but everytime I think I've found what causes it, it happens again.

@joedevon Are you using the 0.4.2 version from here http://www.firephp.org/HQ/FinalRelease.htm ?

Don't think so. When I do about FirePHP it says 1.45. I went to http://www.firephp.org/HQ/ReleaseCandidate.htm the other day and it said "There are no release candidates available at this time." But the link you showed does have a link...

Should I try 0.4.2?

@joedevon Yes. Use 0.4.2. That is the new release (just waiting on mozilla add-ons approval for the udpate).

Thanks. So far so good, but I'll let you know if it remains stable.

@joedevon Good to hear. Sorry about the confusion.

Comment deleted

Thanks for fixing it. Haven't had any more trouble. Even w/ Pandora in the background.

I have the same problem with: firebug: 1.4.5 firefox: 3.5.6 firephp: 0.4.2 firephp.class: 0.3 OS: win7

I found out that console is empty except on rare occasions...I couldn't figure out when.. then it hit me.. the console was empty always.. but if I clicked on another firefox tab and then opened the original back, the console was populated! I don't know if this is firebug's problem or firephp's

It is a problem with FirePHP due to a hack needed to get things working in Firebug 1.4.

Please try firebug 1.5 from: http://getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.5X/
