TB Start Page Fails to Load -- How to Fix?
TB's start page doesnt work. It worked before I updated to 60.3. After the update it fails to load up. How do I fix this?

Does the same thing occur if you launch the application in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode

Try specifying a .jpeg file as the start page. For example, I used C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper\wp2176869-static-wallpapers.jpg . If the path includes embedded spaces don't forget to use double quotes.
If that works then try restoring the default using the restore default button.

Once I disabled Conversations and restarted TB, the start page worked again. Is there a fix so to can keep Conversations and have the start page too?DanRaisch wrote:Does the same thing occur if you launch the application in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode

Re: TB Start Page Fails to Load -- How to Fix?
That looks like a new bug. I can reproduce the problem with 60.3.1 but not 52.9.1. If I run 52.9.1 and then run 60.3.1 (using the same profile) the problem doesn't occur again. But the next time I run 60.3.1 the problem is back
I can't find a bug report about it, but its possible I just didn't figure out the right keywords to search with. I also searched the official forums on https://support.mozilla.org and didn't find anything recent about conversations.

There are no errors in the console. I can't find a bug report as well.

I can force the start page to load without any problems by running the following command in the console.

How exactly did you get this to run in the console? Is this an automatic way to get it to start the start page every time you start TB?morat wrote:There are no errors in the console. I can't find a bug report as well.

If you want the bug fixed, then report it to the developer.

My comment was not a fix. I was only testing the bug.
* tools > developer tools > error console
* copy and paste code into error console
* press enter to run
Error Console command line

You could create a keyboard shortcut to open the start page as a workaround until the developer fixes the bug.

Sorry, I don't know how to change the theme of the error console.
