Specifying web browser settings

To be able to connect to 1C:Enterprise 8 infobases using Mozilla Firefox, specify the following settings (the following procedure is based on Mozilla Firefox version 23):

  • Open the web browser and then, in the Firefox menu, click Options.
  • In the window that is opened, click Content. Clear the Block pop-up windows check box. If the interface mode is Forms in tabs or Taxi and modal windows are not used, selecting this option is not required.
  • Click Privacy and specify the following settings:
    • Select Remember history.
    • To customize cookie acceptance settings, select Use custom settings for history and specify the detailed settings.

If the language of your Mozilla Firefox is not Russian, also specify the following settings (the following procedure is based on Mozilla Firefox version 23):

  • Open the web browser and then, in the Firefox menu, click Options.
  • On the Contents tab, under Fonts & Colors, click Advanced.
  • In the Default Character Encoding list, select Unicode.

It is recommended that you install the web browser extension using the Tools - Web browser setup command. This will change the following:

  • pop-ups will be allowed;
  • switching between application windows will be allowed;
  • using non-Latin characters in command-line options will be allowed;
  • switching between application windows using the keyboard will be allowed.

If you do not want to enable the web browser extension, specify the following browser settings manually:

  • To allow pop-ups:
    • Open the web browser and then, in the Firefox menu, click Options.
    • In the window that is opened, click Content.
    • Clear the Block pop-up windows check box.
  • To allow switching between application windows:
    • In the address bar, enter about:config.
    • In the Search box, enter dom.disable_window_flip.
    • Change the value of this preference to false.
  • To allow using non-Latin characters in command-line options:
    • In the address bar, enter about:config.
    • In the Search box, enter network.standard-url.encode-query-utf8. If this preference is not found, search for browser.fixup.use-utf8 instead.
    • Change the value of this preference to true.
  • To allow switching between application windows using the keyboard:
    • In the address bar, enter about:config.
    • In the Search box, enter dom.popup_allowed_events.
    • Add the keydown event to the list of values of this preference.
  • To set up operating system authentication manually:
    • In the address bar, enter about:config.
    • In the Search box, enter the preference name. Search for the following preferences:
      • network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris,
      • network.negotiate-auth.delegation-uris,
      • network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris.
    • Specify the list of web servers used to access 1C:Enterprise infobases.

      The listed preferences define the following:
      • Whether the web server supports NTLM authentication.
        If the name of the web server being accessed is included in the network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris list, automatic authentication is attempted. If the web server name is absent from the list, the browser displays a dialog box for entering the logon name and password.
      • Whether the web server supports Kerberos authentication.
        To allow access to a web server with this authentication type, add the web server name to the network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris list. This is sufficient if you work with a file infobase. If you need to ensure automatic authentication of web client users in the client/server mode of 1C:Enterprise, you will need to add the DNS name of the web server to network.negotiate-auth.delegation-uris.
        If a web server is being accessed and its name is absent from the network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris list, authentication is not performed and the user will see the error message "401 Unauthorized". To inform the user how to solve the problem, the administrator can modify the 401 error message page (see your web server documentation for details).
