Browser quering blocklist and formatting in HTML error page

Unread post by computergeoffrey » 2015-12-30, 17:11

In the browser console:
[18:05:42.923] mismatched tag. Expected: </link>. @ http://blocklist.palemoon.org/25.8.1/blocklist.xml:15

It seems that Pale Moon tried to fetch the blocklist (whatever that might be) and it failed, getting an error 404 page back (including the missing /> at the end of the link tag at line 15.

If you are already editing the 404 page, please change the alt text too:
"The Pale Moon Project - Custom-built and optimized Firefox browsers for Windows Operating Systems"

Linux exists too :D

It's an (old) custom 404 page that nobody really ever sees ;)

Looks like with the server move from Miami, the blocklist site didn't get updated properly; I'll fix that.

The mismatch is the problem I got with the PBS site under Palemoon 25.8.1.
Weird that the same profile wasn't a problem under 26.
