Work around for server not found problems on FF36

I found a work around for all people with server not found problems with FF36.

If you manually set your DNS network adapter to an external DNS server (as opposed to your local ISP) then the problem disappears. I set mine to use the google DNS servers:

 Preferred: 8.8.8.8
 Alternate: 8.8.4.4

No idea why this works, but it is 100% success on my desktop PC, whereas before I could not connect to a Web page with FF36 without updating the multiple page and a lot of frustration, although FF35 was fine and back to FF35 turnover was as beautiful.

Something has changed in FF36 and how it manages the DNS or the mode of operation with certain network cards.

There is nothing to do with the Add - ons, profiles or software firewall as I tried all these things and that the DNS change makes a difference. I even copied on a full profile and directory of program files to work for Mozilla on my laptop which saw no problem and the problem still exists on the desktop, which is why I started watching the network adapater since everything between the working PC and no work was identical.

I hope that this will help the developers to identify the real cause of the problem and fix it in the next version.

AG - your problem looks different you had FF36 work.

Considering that the problem of many of us that when we spend FF35 in FF36 we get a lot of server is found errors when you try to load Web pages.

Sometimes they load and then they stop loading and then if you click Refresh a lot that they sometimes then charge again, or you have to wait a minute or two and then they load.

For some reason any using an external DNS server {see # 698286 answer ~ J99} has stopped this problem completely, as does return to FF35.

We need an expert on to Mozilla DNS resolution to focus on this. [*] See my note under ~ J99 Seems to me that you use an external DNS server adds some latency to name resolution and maybe this is necessary for the network card in the PC that encounter this issue to resolve the addresses of Web page.

Obviously something changed in FF36 FF35 to cause this problem. I'm open to Mozilla contact me by E-mail if they want me to try something else to help pin it down.

change Note the John99
Mozilla can consider WHETHER we are able to provide evidence to support this. We must be able to complete a report of bug with right steps to reproduce (STR). Developers should be able to see themselves the problem before we can expect to focus on this.

  • Firefox server not found problem

    When I opened my new links on Google search results pages, sometimes I got the pages 'server not found '. I had to refresh twice like that to get the pages loaded. I searched online solutions and I had tried to disable the antivirus, turn off DNS prefetching, uncheck ' web Sites Tell I won't be subject to a follow-up ", disable IPv6 in Firefox, restart it with disabled modules, but they have all failed. I found that there is no problem to use Google DNS. Help thanks.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}
    While you are in safe mode;

    Type of topic: preferences #advanced< enter > in the address bar.

    Under Advanced, select General.
    Find and stop using hardware acceleration.

    Search web sites secure. Are there problems?

    Then restart.

    When you click a link, first check in the small storefront
    at the bottom of the screen. Is it correct? After clicking, you end

  • Why does Firefox Mac returns 'Server not found' for a website but Safari on Mac same load site without any problems?

    The financial company Web site www.gmo.com will not appear in Firefox 32.0.02. Server not found is the only result. Safari loads Web site without any problem and Firefox for Windows computer in the House support the site without problem. All the other sites I have access, including banks, Amazon, etc. loads normally.

    What/why the Mac of Firefox version would not be able to to connect/load this site?

    The company of people told me that no one else has reported this problem and other people in my company can access the site. And they cannot reproduce the problem.

    My ISP provider could not see anything from their point of view. And access all computers to the modem/router in the House everything without any problems.

    Anyone have any ideas on what would cause this or how to go about troubleshooting?

    Thank you for your time.

    Looks like it's something on the computer. There are cookies that must be removed individually from the Firefox profile.

    To do this, go to the Firefox Menu, tap Preferences, then tap privacy and then delete cookies or cookies see the. You can search the sites that gives you problems and remove them. Restart Firefox.

    It could also be that you add a DNS server for your connection. 8.8.8.8 is google, but I don't know if this would affect given that the server is not found, not that there is no link, that's why it does not sound like a connection problem, but a cache problem.

  • Work around for the Ical does not send do not issue invitations

    If I understand the problem, ical will not send an invitation email to someone it detects has an ical account. People don't know they have an invitation or they use Google or Outlook to their calendars. Despite everything, they just don't receive invitations to your meetings. For some reason, Apple does not change the rules.

    I was going to start using my Google Calendar and just invite myself, but I used my Gmail account as my ID for Apple. Ah, the tangled web we weave when we try to be cute with Apple products.

    In any case, I was wondering if anyone had a work around for this problem "iCal don't send invitations." I want just the people I work with in voluntary organizations to get an email with an invitation attached. Has anyone found a way around this? I'm about to go to Evite!

    Thank you

    You can invite people to events using their e-mail address or their name. To invite people by name, they must be in your Contacts application with an email address, or they must use the same service calendar CalDAV or Exchange as you (for example, your company's employees).

    Invite people using window addresses

    1. Choose window > presentation.
    2. Search people, then drag them to the event.

    Send an email or a message for guests

    1. Control-click on the event.
    2. Choose send all guests or Message all guests.

    Add guests to the Contacts

    1. Force or double-click on a click event.
    2. Hold the pointer over a guest, and then click the pop-up menu .
    3. Choose Add to Contacts.If you do not see Add to Contacts, but you do not show Contact card, the guest is already in Contacts.

  • try to download firefox, rpet server not found, no problem with IE or AOL, tho

    Cannot understand this, because I can't have with IE or AOL - no problem connecting. When I click on download it opens a download window, but then nothing happens. When I see a log (don't remember where it was), it's when I see the server not found. I am NOT focused on the technical side, so... Thank you!

    Hey,.

    What browser you try to download from Firefox? You're going to Mozilla.org to do (and if not, you know what to do now!)?

  • I tried everything, but I get "SERVER NOT FOUND TRY AGAIN" when I try again his connects. What is the prayer of the problem. N ".

    I tried everything but keep getting "SERVER NOT FOUND TRY AGAIN" when I try again once it normally connects. What is the problem please

    This can have several reasons:

    first make sure that your firewall/security software allows firefox to fully access the internet.

    then you can try the solutions (proxy settings, the change of dns server) provided in this support thread: https://support.mozilla.org/de/questi.../704934

    If this does not help, also try disabling ipv6 as described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Server%20not%20found?s=server%20not%...

  • Constant problem: first time, a link is clicked: server not found. Refresh page and the server is immediately.

    Foxfire regularly gives me the error message: server not found - BUT if I hit refresh, the server 'not found' opens immediately 99.9% of the time. It's really annoying. Happens several times per session, but not every time I click on a link.

    Maybe you have a problem with IPv6.

  • Why ALL the links to a page "server not found"?

    This problem is ongoing on all computers I own (6 in total) and all have parameters different and others - so no, it's not my problem.

    From this link no response
    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/767320

    You can see that the problem has been around for OVER a YEAR and still no Firefox address.

    The problem is as the title implies, a server not found error message to display EACH link I click and I have to click "Try again" repeatedly get the page to load.

    It gets really annoying after typing a long answer and clicking the button send to have to retype everything because of the BS 'server not found '. I'll try to go back this post every day until measures are taken. I must learn to copy everything I type in which case the page does not load.

    Finally found something that works!

    Step 1: Uninstall Firefox
    Step 2: Start internet explore
    Step 3: Download the fact that IE sucks green weenies
    Step 4: Enjoy as a result of all the links that you click actually LOADS A PAGE.

    No more clicking on 'Try Again', thank God.

  • Search page does not. When I click on the blue writing take research, it says server not found after trying to connect.

    I am running XP using firefox (SERVER NOT FOUND) also tried IE (PAGE NOT FOUND or some THING LIKE THAT SAME PROBLEM AS FF WORDED DIFFERENTLY) only the address bar will allow me to do the research. When I click on the blue writing on page research he always says server not found. Need to copy and paste website address or manually type in the bar. System Restore said I need to contact my domain administrator to access, what's new. Also even when you use the firefox address bar began to plant on a regular basis. Clean the cookies and cache without change. Tried a few other things start and run reset win socks or something don't me remember now has failed. Also a CBC site I just think appeared at a closed point, but he continued to hear that it works with no visual representation on screen had to reload. Tried changing to IE and changed to yahoo from google without change. This server not found - cannot find 1clicksearch.p.info or something. Check the line workoff checkbox is not a factor. Any help would be appreciated. Also, using service pack 3. I also tried an older version of firefox before IE, I noticed also wasn't yet cleared all the info like bookmarks which would focus on the old version. Not looked at proxy made no difference to no automatic option tried proxy. I did a lot of research using the address bar and search pages site address I found similar problems on son but not what I treat exactly. Also when I type in the box on the google page often the google search button and the button enter won't take me to the search page and I have to use a top bar or hit, I feel lucky. This last problem, according to me has been on for a while, but not much more than a problem.

  • Server not found (well Yes.) Another)

    Hello wonderful people to support,

    I know that this fault has been raised countless times previously. But for me? Currently a problem.

    My "Server not found" error since frequency increased significantly in moving on Windows 10 x 64 (from Win 7 x 64), composed at the same time to install a new version of Firefox in early June and subsequently updated to current 47.0.1.

    At first I blamed the sites themselves (the server down?), but as he became more persistent, I tested the site with another browser and everything was fine.

    I tried almost all the suggestions listed in the FAQ section section help for this type of error (including disabling the firewall, disabling all browser extensions & add-ons, Cache, DNS Prefetching, compensation for malware Checked). The only step I still have to take is "Reset Firefox" because of its recent nature resort.

    Often, a Web site that are not accessible due to "Server not found" can properly be consulted a few moments later (within 30 minutes) without adjusting a single setting of the browser or system.

    It is not a constant problem that 95% of the time Web sites to connect without a problem, but it is a problem.

    Yours faithfully, Jason

    Have you tried flushing your DNS? Your DNS converts URLS to IP addresses. She recorded these IP addresses in a table so that they are accessible later. Flushing your DNS will delete this table and can solve the problem.

    If it does not help the issue, please try to reset your Internet Options in Windows and reset Internet Explorer. I know that sounds strange, but sometimes not valid settings in the Internet Options or Internet Explorer can prevent Firefox to work properly.

    Please let us know if you are able to solve the problem.

  • WRT54GS2 v1 connection expired and server not found

    OK I got the connection expired issues and server not found on both my PC and my Laptop.I I use Zoom ADSL ISP x 5 provided. series 1605. I have a router Linksys WRT54GS2. I followed the installation program in full and was surfing without delay. The problem started there when I bought the router and plugged in about 5 months. I already spoke with technology specialists to my ISP and they said that I have an excellent DSL connection and they have not seen any problems at their end. I had disconnected the router completely my network and removed the Ethernet cable and hooked the cable directly to a DSL modem and had no problems until I plugged the router in the modem. I factory reset the router a few times and implemented accordingly to make sure everything was good. Well, I still have errors in time-out for laptops and PCs. I have tried almost everything in the book and I'm out of ideas. Am I missing something here? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I tried changing the settings through the router and nothing seems to work. I checked both PC and laptop computer for viruses and nothing. I talked to my ISP and they tell me that my DSL connection is excellent and which was not disconnects or connection has expired at their end. It is located between my router and two computers. An Ethernet cable is plugged directly from the computer to a DSL modem. And an Ethernet cable is connected directly to the rear of the router. I am just totally stumped. The internet is totally fine when I cut out the router completely. I have no disconnects when the main PC is connected to the DSL modem with router disconnected completely. I have reset the router completely and followed Linksys technical support online for the T and I still get the connection has expired. Initially, I got a Belkin wireless router and thus became the message timeout through it. I thought something was wrong with this one so I went out and bought a Linksys WRT54GS2 router Linksys Wireless G. can someone offer some advice or ideas that I have not already tried? Please? The wife and I are really frustrated.

  • Error: "DNS server not found" when you try to access the internet.

    original title: network WIFI DNS connection issues

    Hi all

    This is my weirdest experience with WIFI connections so far. So let me explain.
    I have several WIFI connection to my modem/router that work very well, 2 phones and 2 laptops work just great, wirelessly.
    Now I have this new ASUS wireless adapter to my PC and it gives me a headache, and the ASUS support... Well, what kind of support?
    When I turn on my pc, my pc connects to the router with full connection bars. But there is no internet, I'm getting DNS SERVER NOT FOUND, this happens every time when starting of the pc. But when my pc has already started and then I reset the router, I get internet with good working DNS and then everything works. But of course, when then restart my pc again, it loses DNS and I can restart the router once more...
    I have tried everything I know, manual setting of DNS does not work, renewing the ip and dns cmd of hot flashes do not work either.
    My setup
    ------
    Windows 7 Professional x 64
    ASUS PCE - N15 11n Wireless card
    DHCP enabled
    Dns and ip automatic (ip4/ip6) parameters
    ------
    I really hope that you guys can help me, it drives me crazy and the problem continues to exist for a month now.

    Hello Serellyn,

    Have you tried to change the wireless channel that your router is running at? There may be interference that could prevent the internet connection:

    Take a look at step 6 in this article. He further explains this problem as possible:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/athome/Setup/wirelesstips.aspx

    If you need assistance to change the settings of the specific router, you will need to contact your router manufacturer or your internet service provider.

  • After installing the version 36.0 whenever I go to a Web site, I get "server not found" and I have to refresh

    After installing the version 36.0 (yesterday) on the desktop and laptop, whenever I go to a site that I get "server not found" and I update the site to access.

    I checked my firewall and it is configured correctly.

    And I changed the proxy for 'no proxy '.

    I went back to the 35.0.1 version and it seems to have solved the problem.

  • Can I go back to the old look error messages 'server not found '?

    After the Firefox 32 update, I noticed that the "server not found" error messages look differently now. I don't like the new look, so I wonder if you know an add-on that restores the old look. I tried to search for him, but I don't know the name of these error messages, so I don't know what search phrase I should use.

    Thank you very much for your answer. The solution in the thread link you to seems to be a bit too complicated for me, so I guess I'll have to live with the new error messages (unless the add-on you link is updated to work with latest versions of Firefox, but that seems unlikely). Thank you anyway for your help, however.
