Can't open email using gmail via webmail, the email list is shown but an email does not open properly

I'm using Firefox Nightly in Debian 7 (64 bits) and, since two weeks ago, the emails on my gmail account (via webmail) can't be opened properly.

The steps for this problem:

1. Open Firefox Nightly. 2. Open a gmail email account (www.gmail.com). 3. Click an email. 4. The email is opened but it is empty, it has only the Reply box, the message does not appear.

The email is shown properly when using any other browser (iceweasel, chrome, chromium) in the same machine.

Could anyone help me?

Hi guigs2,

The problem was fixed when I tested FFnightly in safe mode.

The problem was the addon Adblock Plus 2.1, gmail started working when it was disabled.

Thanks

Hi viniciusjl, Does this still happen on the latest nightly? If so what was the about:buildconfig info on the page when you saw this happen. Nightly is not officially supported, but I know a screenshot and a bug would not be not appreciated in bugzilla.mozilla.org.

Hi guigs2,

I've just updated Firefox Nightly, restarted it and refreshed gmail page, and the problem still persists.

I added the image of your email via gmail seen from FFnightly.

Should I open an issue in bugzilla.mozilla.org?

The about:buildconfig is:

I forgot to add the guigs2 email seen from Iceweasel (uploaded now).

Please do, sorry for the late response, as nightly version are still being updated, but if the issue persists after clearing cache, better to report it than not.

EDIT: also thank you.

Hi guigs2,

I've just opened the Bug 1059012.

I also cleaned the web content cache and the application cache, but the problem still persists.
