Problem with Firefox configuration

[it_usd_goe]

Hello everyone.
I would like to deploy Firefox (esr) via Opsi.
The problem is that I have to disable the IPv6 option and I would like to deploy a proxy-setting.
I can only deploy the proxy setting after firefox has been started once, because the file where these settings are configured are created at the first start of firefox.
So I wanted to start firefox after my installation and end the firefox process and execute the CMD file that sets IPv6 and the proxy.
I'm able to start Firefox right after the installation but the process won't close and can't be terminated. Is there anyone who could help me with that issue?

Kind regards

I'm pretty sure that you don't need to do it like you are doing it now.

you can use a prefs.js file which contains your settings and copy that to c:\program files\mozilla Firefox\browser\defaults\profile after installing firefox. all new firefox profiles will contain those settings. already present profiles will not!

Code: Alles auswählen

user_pref("browser.startup.homepage", "https://google.com|https://example.com"); //set both google and example as homepages
user_pref("network.proxy.type", 5); //use system (i.e. Internet Explorer) proxy settings

user_pref("app.update.auto", true);
user_pref("app.update.autoUpdateEnabled", true);
user_pref("app.update.enabled", true);

user_pref("dom.disable_open_during_load", false); //globally disable popup blocker

if you want to push the same settings to all users, whether they have a firefox profile or not, you should use a loginscript or something to overwrite/modify the prefs.js file in %appdata%Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<some-random-guid>.default

an alternative to prefs.js is to use mozilla.cfg, which you must copy to c:\program files\Mozilla firefox\

in addition to that you also need to copy a file called local-settings.js to c:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref which contains the following:

Code: Alles auswählen

 pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // only needed if you do not want to obscure the content with ROT-13
 pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");

example mozilla.cfg

Code: Alles auswählen

//Sets the proxy to use the system proxy settings (0, for no proxy)
lockPref("network.proxy.type", 5);

//disables automatic and manual updating
lockPref("app.update.auto", false);
lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);

//disables Maintenance service
lockPref("app.update.service.enabled", false);

//lockPref("browser.rights.override", true);

//disable stupid firefox startpage
lockPref("browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone", "ignore")

pref("browser.startup.homepage", "https://google.com|https://example.com");

pref("capability.policy.policynames", "localfilelinks");
pref("capability.policy.localfilelinks.checkloaduri.enabled", "allAccess");

user_pref("dom.disable_open_during_load", false); //globally disable popup blocker

//below lines to suppress warnings when also deploying extra extensions
pref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 0);
pref("extensions.enabledScopes", 15);

I can't remember for sure but I think the mozilla.cfg also only applies to newly created firefox profiles

if you still want to go the original route, I'd add something like below to your batch file, instead of the two opsi commands to open and kill firefox.

Code: Alles auswählen

start "c:\program files\Mozilla firefox\firefox.exe"
taskkill /F /IM "firefox.exe"

[it_usd_goe]

Wow.Thanks a lot for that post.I'm going to try those ways.
Where do i have to place the opsi commands?

[ritsovih]

I find it easier to handle all deployment logic via a regular batchfile, which I call via an OPSI script with the DosInAnIcon function. The batchfile always produces an exitcode, which gets interpreted with the opsi function Sub_check_exitcode, so I can determine whether the script has run successful or not. I prefer this method, because I already have a pretty extensive set of native (batch, vbs, powershell) windows scripts . This way I don't have to spend my time learning a new (opsi) scripting language and can simply re-use what I already have.

that's just 1 way to do it off course, many ways to Rome, I think opsi even includes a couple of built-in functions for firefox deployment customization. Whatever floats your boat

[it_usd_goe]

Thanks ritsovih.
I just set up firefox and copied the prefs.js into my "files" folder.
Now I'm creating the \browser\defaults\profile folder in the winbatch function.
And I copy the prefs.js file via Files-Install function.
Tested and works fine.

Thanks a lot for all those ideas.
