Hello.

It seems Firefox Sync is not working in my country. Here is the sync-log contents: https://pastebin.com/zhEqEV1E

I think, The reason is the government at 16th of April '18 started blocking operation of Telegram messenger in my country, but they have no luck at this, so They just blocked a huge piece of the Internet for us. And the FF Sync too.

Any help?

Hello everyone. I have the solution.

I just had the random http proxy set up in my FF's settings. After sync was OK, I set the proxy off. Now I am kinda have "sync on demand".

I dont think there is a guilt of my employer. We re a small company and we dont have an IT dept.

As I said earlier, government in my country have blocked millions of IP-adresses on 16th of April, and the first error-log occured exactly at that day. That is what happen in my opinion.

Thanks to everyone here!

Hey there,

Thank you for the pastebin, I am getting second opinion on your errors, can you provide the last 5 error log files from about:sync-logs ?

The insufficient storage usually mean you have reached the max. For now, disable the syncing of add-ons and see if you can complete a full sync.

With the newest sync logs we can take a look to make sure nothing else is happening. I look forward to your reply!

I have disabled addons sync both on my computers at home and at work, but it brings no effect.

I am ready to follow your further instructions.

Is the about:sync-log page available via the about:about page? The about:about lists all available about: protocol pages.

Hello everyone, good news here.

I digged out my old laptop, and FF sync on it(ofc its updated) is working fine, including bookmarks.

So the question is why its not working at my work computer(not in my country :))

Hi

It may be the case that your employers IT support team have disabled that functionality. I recommend that you contact them for guidance on this issue.

I have seen it mentioned a few times here that a person's employer was blocking their users from using the Sync service.
