Automatic Updates written down in mozilla.cfg ?
I would like to update firefox automatically, written down in mozilla.cfg with the commands. But it dont works. Are the commands right ? // enable auto application updates pref("app.update.enabled", true); pref("app.update.auto", true); pref("app.update.mode", 0); pref("app.update.silent", true); pref("app.update.interval", 300); pref("browser.search.update", true);

Does Firefox find the mozilla.cfg file?
Do any of the prefs show on the about:config page?
A possible test can be to lock a pref via lockPref();

yeah sure, otherwise it wouldn't take the other options look, this is our mozilla.cfg file:
//Firefox Default Settings
// set Firefox Default homepage pref("browser.startup.homepage","http://www.amag.ch");
// disable default browser check pref("browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser", false); pref("browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone", "ignore");
// enable auto application updates lockPref("app.update.enabled", true); lockPref("app.update.auto", true); lockPref("app.update.mode", 0); lockPref("app.update.silent", true); lockPref("app.update.interval", 300); lockPref("browser.search.update", true);
// disables the 'know your rights' button from displaying on first run pref("browser.rights.3.shown", true);
// disables the request to send performance data from displaying pref("toolkit.telemetry.rejected", true);
but somehow it dont want to update the firefox. actually we want, when someone installed firefox from our server and an update came out, that our employee dont have to update manually.
I don't know if the Mozilla Maintenance Service that downloads and installs updates in the background would behave differently with respect of those prefs.
Doesn't Firefox update at all or only at a later time or when being idle?
No, somehow it didn't update. We waited more than a day and its still dont want to update. I installed firefox 30.0 to see if it update to 32.0 but in vain. :P
