Autofill has stopped working across all sites in Firefox on Linux #10815
Comments
Link #10814 this also effects windows. Seems to be global Firefox issue, not OS dependant. |
During the "long loading time" phase, I get this output in the browser console:
Each time I press "Autofill", along with the standard Bitwarden error that appears in the GUI, I get this output in the console, which seems probably irrelevant but just mentioning in case:
The regular Developer Tools console (i.e. not the browser console) also gives this error on each pageload, irrespective of the page:

Hi there, I am unable to reproduce this issue, it has been escalated for further investigation. If you have more information that can help us, please add it below. Thanks! |
This seems to have resolved for me after a clean reinstall of the extension, removing the data from the Firefox profile. I wonder given the migration messages whether this relates to a change in the extension's internal storage schema or something in the last version, breaking upgrades but meaning new installs are OK? |
I started having the same problem with the latest version on Brave on Linux. It would log in, but would not autofill and neither would it sync the vault. If I deactivated and reactivated the extension, it started working until the next browser restart. It is not doing this with the older version of the extension on my Vivaldi browser. I think @mashedkeyboard is on the right route. Seems the update to the extension created some corruption of the extension data. I'm also going to retry installing it. Just hope I don't have to do it for all my 5 browsers as that is going to be a bit irritating. |
Ahh crap, no syncing might be a problem, ive already added new passwords manually since this started happening. Update: I have checked and the new passwords I added in the extention manually have synced to the desktop app. |
Nope for me uninstalling the extension and removing data, restarting browser and re-installing extension, still produces the no sync issue. EDIT: It appears to sync on initial login, but not after that again. Worse, Vivaldi just updated the extension to v2024.8.1, and I have the same problem there now. I need to somehow revert to the 2024.7.x version otherwise I may be pretty stuck as every password I have is inside Bitwarden. |
I also can confirm that reinstalling Bitwarden extensions on chromium browsers resolved the issue. UPDATE: problem still persists in Firefox even after re-installing extensions. However for chrome, it resolved as i mentioned earlier. |
I have this issue with

Same on Opera on Windows
Autofill in context menu seems to believe that every input field is on |
Same here as well with today's new Firefox.

I'm seeing the same thing on Fedora 40. Firefox is 129.0.2, Extension 2024.8.1. |
Also experiencing this. Firefox developer edition 130.0b7 and extension 2024.8.1 on Arch Linux. I'm surprised that there's no integration test to test for this kind of regressions in the pipeline. Just paid for my annual subscription, hopefully this can get fixed quickly! This issue doesn't appear in private browsing windows when the extensions "enable for private windows" is toggled off and then back on. So the issue seems to only exist if the extension is enabled at the startup of the browser or something. |
I've logged it at their Help Centre now and mentioned this issue as it has not been allocated to anyone yet. |
From what I know, no one on the dev team is able to replicate it, as it doesnt happen on a fresh install (which tests typically mimic). This regression from old installs. So unless we can find a method to replicate the issue on a fresh install, it likly wont get patched. |
Unfortunately -- at least for me -- re-install does not fix it. |
Did anyone try a firefox reinstall? Clearing all temp files and such? |
I manually deleted the extension folders in C:\Users$User\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles$Profile\storage\default removed and reinstalled, and it's now working. |
For me with Firefox on Windows, just removing and adding the addon again fixed it. |
This fixed it for me too. Just removing the plugin from Firefox did not remove the package from the filesystem. Manually deleting the file from ~/.mozilla/firefox/-profile-/extensions resolved the issue. |
I'm encountering the problem about 50% of the time I start Firefox. I've noticed that when Firefox starts, if the lock symbol on the Bitwarden icon for the extension is present then operation is normal, i.e. I have to log into Bitwarden and it works correctly. However, sometimes the lock is not present on starting Firefox , even if I have not yet logged into Bitwarden. Selecting the icon will bring up the master password prompt. After login the logins are visible but there's no auto fill. |
Locking the vault in the extension fixed it for me on Windows 11 and Firefox 130. But maybe it's only a temporary fix and it might end up reappearing.
So, this basically means that no one at Bitwarden is using Bitwarden, which I highly doubt. |
I encountered an issue with the Bitwarden extension (version 2024.8.1) on Firefox 130.0 running on Arch Linux. Simply removing and reinstalling the extension didn't resolve the problem. While following the instructions from this GitHub comment (#10815 (comment)) to remove the extension and clean the specific folder helped, the fix was temporary and only lasted until the next Firefox restart. Disabling and then re-enabling the extension seems to offer a temporary workaround, but it's limited to the current Firefox session. Closing and reopening the browser causes the issue to reoccur. |
I had this issue yesterday. I fixed it with the uninstall and re-install. And today it's broken again. I tried clicking the manual "lock now" button in the extension and it does not lock.
|
Now working on Brave Beta for me from today - deleted the extension again, and reinstalled, and noted the extension version matches the server version. |
Started with me a few days ago. Found this thread after restarts of Firefox did nothing. Uninstalled and re-installed extension. Worked, even after a restart of Firefox. (Did not manually delete any data) Rocky (RHEL) 9.4 (Linux 5.14.0-427.28.1.el9_4.x86_64 x86_64) EDIT: I did a test restart of Firefox on 9/5 and it still worked. I run two instances of Firefox with separate profiles. Only have BitWarden installed on one profile and I'm pretty confident the other profile was not running during my testing. But this morning I restarted both and now it's not working. EDIT 2: Suddenly started working again today, 9/6. Version number are the same. I had not done anything, but had intended to later. Both instances of Firefox are open. Had not even restarted Firefox. I also run Thunderbird. Wonder if there is some sort of interaction? |
Yea disabling and reenabling the extension fixes the issue for me, until close and reopen firefox. |
and another one here, bitwarden was fine on firefox 129.x, then as soon as I updated to firefox 130 autofill stopped working
|
I thought reinstalling solved it, but it did not. Only directly after the install it worked, but after a restart the issue was back again and I don't have auto-fill unless i reinstall again. I tried deleting the extension folder from my home folder, and then install fresh, no difference. Linux Firefox 129.0.1 , Bitwarden 2024.8.1 This is what I get in the extension debugger when I turn off and back on tthe bitwarden extension Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: null has no properties
|
Ive been using Argon from the start. |
Same here. |
Ive determined the issue is with the new Autofill UI they released in 2024.8.1 |
Same problem for me on Windows + Firefox. Nothing to do with Linux specifically. Also I am unable to lock the vault or log out. I deleted the extension and reinstalled and logged in again and now it shows me the autofill 'numbers' (like the small 1 if I have an account on the website). But who knows how long it'll last... |
Seems to be fixed in 2024.8.2 |
Yep, the issue seems to have been resolved in the latest version; can finally autofill as usual. Thank you devs! |
IT only worked for me for a short bit after re-installing the extension. The same is still happening with v2.9.0 too on both Brave and Vivavldi. I did delete the extension yesterday and reinstalled, but today again no autofill. Also notice it takes quite a while to login. |
Gonna take back my previous comment. It worked fine in 8.2, but not in 9.0. Same issue as 8.1. |
I have the same issue. |
Disabling then re-enabling the extension did not fix it for me. However, going to |
Enabling "Exchange messages with other programs" permission did not solve the issue for me. Closing and then re-opening my browser after reboot does "solve" the issue. After I reboot my device I need to do this again. im on version 2024.9.0 Firefox 130.0 (64-bit) Manjaro Linux |
@mashedkeyboard Thank you for this bug report. This appears to be a duplicate of the problem described in #10814 , please see this comment for details surrounding the problem. As this is a duplicate, I'm closing this thread for now to focus discussion within the Github issue mentioned above. Please feel free to continue discussion there. |
Steps To Reproduce
Expected Result
Successful autofill on any site, especially sites that have previously worked on the same Firefox/Linux setup, and continue to work on other platforms (e.g. Windows and Android)
Actual Result
Autofill appears to be broken, as does the Bitwarden extension's icon representation of the number of registered logins for a site, and the in-memory vault storage (perhaps relatedly?)
