puppeteer: Firefox: puppeteer never returns from page.goto() with file:// protocol
Steps to reproduce
Tell us about your environment:
- Puppeteer version: 2.1.1
- Platform / OS version: Linux
- URLs (if applicable):
- Node.js version: v12.16.1
What steps will reproduce the problem?
If you run the following code, “GOTO” is logged in the console, but “After GOTO” is never reached. After closing the browser window manually, an error is logged:
(node:4128451) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Navigation failed because browser has disconnected!
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
global.page = undefined;
(async function(){
const browser = (await puppeteer.launch({
product: 'firefox',
executablePath: '/opt/firefox/firefox',
headless: false,
devtools: false,
defaultViewport: {
width: 1000,
height: 0,
deviceScaleFactor: 2
}
}));
global.page = (await browser.pages())[0];
console.log("GOTO");
await page.goto("file://" + process.cwd() + "/dist");
console.log("After GOTO");
await browser.close();
})();
If you remove the product and executablePath, it works fine with chrome, it logs
GOTO
After GOTO
and then closes the browser window again.

@m90 that’s exactly what I’m doing right now, gave up trying to use puppeteer with firefox. Thanks.
@jlcd I ported my project to Playwright by now because of this limitation. Works flawlessly using both engines by now.
