The firefox 119.0 that came with 22.04 won't open files in /tmp
file:///tmp/foo.html
Problem loading page
File not found
Firefox can’t find the file at /tmp/foo.html.
but it is there!
% ls -l /tmp/foo.html
-rw-rw-rw- 1 ian ian 27631 Oct 31 14:10 /tmp/foo.html
If I move the file anywhere else then ff can read it:
% mv /tmp/foo.html ~
% cd
% ls -l foo.html
-rw-rw-rw- 1 ian ian 27631 Oct 31 14:10 foo.html
file:///home/ian/foo.html loads just fine. ff just refuses to load anything from /tmp! Why??
