Manga pages won’t load

Anaxim

@chocolatkey Really sorry about how long this took to answer. Kinda forgot about the thread. Yes, that is what happened. Manga has loaded without issue since.

More debugging information. This is from Firefox 137.0.2-1 as installed on my linux (Debian, PopOS) laptop.

First, I tried disabling cache and clearing site data, but unlike @Anaxim's experience this didn't help on my instance.

Second, I wanted to clarify that the problem with the manga reader on Firefox is strictly limited to loading the chapter. Once loaded, I can move from page to page without problems. That is, I can turn on privacy.resistFingerPrinting once the chapter is loaded and the reader works fine going from page to page.

Third, by switching the privacy.resistFingerPrinting on and of during load, I've isolated this error:

Uncaught Error: Permission denied to access property "type"

The "learn more" link says, among other things, that :

"There was attempt to access an object for which you have no permission. This is likely an <iframe> element loaded from a different domain for which you violated the same-origin policy."

Thanks again, @chocolatkey , for your efforts. Hope this helps...

I could read manga pages just fine as of 2 days ago, but now, any manga chapter I open gets stuck on "Fetching info...".

Nekoatl

It's working again.

swoods

@Nekoatl -- did you change anything in your browser? Or did the application spontaneously start working again?

Nekoatl

@swoods It spontaneously started working again. I assumed it was a temporary service outage, but now I'm seeing the same problem. Interestingly, it's happening on a Friday morning, same as last time. I expect it'll start working again within an hour.

Nekoatl

My prediction was wrong. It's still not working.

Nekoatl

Just to be thorough, I tried restarting my computer and clearing cookies, but of course neither helped.

Nekoatl

It just started working again.

swoods

@Nekoatl, so it sounds like something is changing on the platform rather than on your computer. Anyway, I hope it keeps working for you!

What browser are you using? And do you have any browser extensions or VPN or such?

Nekoatl

@swoods I'm using Brave with uBlock Origin on SteamOS, but deactivating uBlock Origin didn't help, and I'm pretty sure neither Brave nor SteamOS updated in between when the manga wasn't loading and when it was. No VPN.

swoods

@Nekoatl Thanks! Yes I've also found that Ublock Origin doesn't matter, whether on or off.

Today, I'm getting a new error when I try to load the manga reader:

ERROR 9500
Failed to fetch prpb

This happens regardless of whether I have "privacy.resistfingerprinting on or off. This is with Firefox on Linux.

I was going to say that I was having failures with manga in the iOS app and Safari browser, and point up you to this thread with a mention of Cloudflare problems…

But then I tried the app again, and the manga appears to be loading for me once more in both app and Safari.

swoods

Thanks, @Ingraman it does look like it was some momentary glitch. It's working for me again so long as I have privacy.resistfingerpinting turned off.

Cloudflare.... I had no idea. The web is so complicated now.

jpwong

There's an announcement on the discord indicating the current issues with loading manga pages is being caused by the cloudflare problems.

swoods

@jpwong thanks for the heads-up on the Cloudflare issues. This must be a huge problem if it's been going on since last year.

Happily I have no problem reading novels, so I'll focus on that for now.

I had Cloudflare problems loading manga earlier this morning, but they only lasted 15 - 20 minutes. This has happened to me 2 to 3 times this month, but they are intermittent and clear up pretty fast (at least for me)

jpwong

@swoods If you've been getting the ERROR 9500 Failed to fetch prpb error for years that's probably a different issue. Cloudflare and AWS being down was one day and it made the news because of how many sites were impacted.

swoods

@jpwong -- Oops, I misunderstood what you were saying. Indeed, the Error 9500 is intermittent and brief.

I have a separate, long-standing problem with not being able to read manga that started sometime last year...
