Management console does not function

[yakimaman]

Is there some reason the management console will not work with Firefox on Linux?  I cannot add a datasource.  I cannot deploy a *.war file.  The postgres jdbc driver says it is deployed in the deployments directory but does not show up as a deployment in the console.  The last version it worked was 12.  Have I missed a configuration requirement?

Which version of WildFly is this? And if it's as severe as you are stating, it always better to file a JIRA and attach relevant details including any screenshots and browser console messages. Here's where you can file a JIRA https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY/

There is a known issue with WildFly 18 in standalone mode (WFLY-12642)
WildFly 18 Datasource Error Through Console

Currently tested with WF18.  Last one that worked for me is WF12 (so I'm stuck there).  Since others seem to be working I am wondering if Firefox on Linux has some setting I am unaware about or if Linux changed such that it prevents Console from working anymore??  Haven't found anything on Google that would indicate what the problem may be.  I don't see what would prevent it working once I get a connection to the console but.....?  I have tried every release between 12 and 18 but none of them has worked.  I'm running on OpenSUSE Tumblweed (rolling release so always has latest patches for Kernel and all apps).  Firefox is @ 69.0.1.

I have seen one other complaint on this list that the Console will not deploy anything (since WF12 in my case) or display the deployed artifacts.  As I recall that user also filed a JIRA for the issue.

Seems to be Firefox settings.  Have to turn off all privacy and retain history.  Then the Console seems to function.  Seems to be out of step with the trajectory of current events in the digital world. 

Now to get the datasource issue fixed and it appears the management console will be functional again for me.
