Unexpected Application Error! Invalid URI format

Unexpected Application Error!
Invalid URI format

Firefox (updated) errors in the toolbar. Also errors in the U/P form fields.

Once logged in, I can update and add a record.

Buttercup Versions

• FF 3.0.0
• Chrome 3.0.0
• Win Desktop @ v2.26.2
  • Core @ v7.7.0

Weird, I haven't seen such an error. Are you on stable firefox, latest version? I can't reproduce this.

[gravistech412]

FF 124.0.1 (64-bit)

Several others in my organization have the same error.

[gravistech412]

I have uninstalled all FF extensions. Reinstalled BC. It asks to connect. Then it errors as mentioned above.
With all my vaults locked (win desktop) the FF Extension does not error. My vaults are Google Drive.
I downloaded the vault and loaded it locally and got the error. I have tried unlocking a vault on all 4 storage locations. Each errors.

[gravistech412]

I have determined that it is one specific vault that when unlocked causes the error. This is our main vault.

[gravistech412]

I have converted all vaults to "Format B". This vault still errors.
I have created a local backup of this vault. I have unlocked this backup. The FF ext. errors.

It's also happening to me, the stack trace I get is:

The desktop application that links to the extension seems to be working fine, I yet have to get to the point where I relaunch the browser/buttercup after connecting them.
I'm running Firefox 121.0 (64-bit) on Nobara Linux.

Any special characters in your vault names? Anything else you can share about your desktop configuration?

I've not been able to reproduce this yet, and I can't yet see a pattern as to when this occurs.

@perry-mitchell I am seeing a similar issue. It does seem to be specific to a vault that has an underscore in its name. Specifically I see:

Unexpected Application Error!

I do not see this when only a vault without underscore (and no other special characters) is unlocked.

[perry-mitchell]

Ok, thanks for the clarification. I'll see if I can reproduce it..

[perry-mitchell]

No, that doesn't seem to trigger it. Not with a local file at least.

[perry-mitchell]

Ah! It's nothing to do with the vault name/path/type.. it's an OTP URI parsing issue. The vaults that are crashing the extension have an invalid OTP URI in them.

I'll get a patch out for this asap.

EDIT: In the mean time, try to track down the OTP URI that's invalid and consider either removing it, or changing it's type from an OTP item to a standard item. This should prevent it from being parsed.

EDIT 2: Easily reproducible with a bad URI for an OTP:

[goshander]

Also if you have bad OTP URL in Trash, just drop this record

[perry-mitchell]

Trash should already be ignored.. if not I should check that later.

[perry-mitchell]

ETA on this is some time today. Apologies for the inconvenience.

[adamturcsan]

Trash should already be ignored.. if not I should check that later.

It is not. I only had one wrong OTP url, which was in the trash. After emptying it, the addon works properly.

[Gkupce]

It was the OTP, I had tested it once to see what it was and the trashed it.
Still, sitting in the trash it was crashing the extension until now.

[alonsohn]

Answering the question about special characters, since I can't configure it on GDrive either, I have it synchronized to my server and in the name of a folder it has @ as a special character

[alonsohn]

Now, all my problem is in Ubuntu 22.04, in the Windows version everything works, Windows is not the OS. What I use the most, on the contrary it is the exception, my main job is in Linux

[gravistech412]

@perry-mitchell thanks for the quick response. The new FF ext version work great now.
