See error details below:<br><br></p> <p><code>Error: Protocol error (Error): Attempted to write a response containing a destroyed actor from: root (resource://devtools/shared/protocol/types.js:358:17)</code></p> </blockquote> <p><strong>Workaround:</strong> In the <code>about:debugging</code> page on your development computer, disconnect from and reconnect to the Android device.</p> <p><strong>Additional notes:</strong> This issue appears to be related to simultaneous connections to the Android device from <code>web-ext</code> and Firefox's developer tools. To minimize the likelihood of this issue, set <code>web-ext</code> to auto-reload specific files only using the <code>--watch-files</code> flag. For example:</p> <pre class="language-bash"><code class="language-bash">web-ext run <span class="token parameter variable">-t</span> firefox-android <span class="token punctuation">\</span> --android-device<span class="token operator">=</span>emulator-5554 <span class="token punctuation">\</span> --firefox-apk<span class="token operator">=</span>org.mozilla.fenix <span class="token punctuation">\</span> --watch-file manifest.json</code></pre> <p>This approach also allows you to manually trigger a refresh by pressing <code>R</code> while the web-ext terminal window is focused.</p> <p><strong>Tracking issue:</strong> <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1856481">Bug 1856481</a></p> </div> </article> </section>  <section class="module meta-data"> <article class="module-content grid-x grid-padding-x"> <div class="cell small-12"><p><span class="meta-label tags">Tags:</span>  <a href="/tags/android/">android</a>  <a href="/tags/api/">api</a>  <a href="/tags/debugging/">debugging</a>  <a href="/tags/development/">development</a>  <a href="/tags/firefox/">firefox</a>  <a href="/tags/testing/">testing</a>  <a href="/tags/web-ext/">web-ext</a>  <a href="/tags/webextensions/">webextensions</a> </p><p><span class="meta-label contributors">Contributors:</span> <a href="https://github.com/dotproto/" title="View dotproto on Github">dotproto</a> </p><p><span class="meta-label date">Last update:</span> <a href="https://github.com/dotproto/" title="View dotproto on Github" itemprop="author" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/Person"><span class="p-author h-card" itemprop="name">dotproto</span></a> <time class="dt-published" datetime="2023-11-20T00:00:00+00:00" itemprop="datePublished">Nov 20, 2023 </time> </p></div> </article> </section> <section class="module up-next"> <article class="module-content grid-x grid-padding-x"> <div class="cell small-12"> <h6>Up Next</h6> </div> <a href="/documentation/publish/" class="cell auto tile tile-block-link"> <div class="block-link"><h5>Publish</h5> </div> </a> <a href="/documentation/publish/add-on-policies/" class="cell auto tile tile-block-link"> <div class="block-link"><p>Publish</p><h5>Add-on Policies</h5> </div> </a> <a href="/documentation/publish/firefox-add-on-distribution-agreement/" class="cell auto tile tile-block-link"> <div class="block-link"><p>Publish</p><h5>Firefox Add-on Distribution Agreement</h5> </div> </a> </article> </section> </main> <aside class="documentation-topics"> <div class="grid-container grid-x grid-padding-x"> <div class="cell small-12"> <h6>Documentation Topics</h6> <ul> <li><a href="/documentation/develop/">Develop</a></li> <li><a href="/documentation/publish/">Publish</a></li> <li><a href="/documentation/manage/">Manage</a></li> <li><a href="/documentation/enterprise/">Enterprise</a></li> <li><a href="/documentation/themes/">Themes</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </aside> <aside class="panel social"> <div class="grid-container grid-x grid-padding-x"> <div class="cell small-12"> <h2>Connect With Us</h2> </div> <div class="cell small-12 large-3"> <h4>Twitter</h4> <p>For developers: <br><a href="https://twitter.com/mozamo" class="twitter">@mozamo</a></p> <p>For end users: <br><a href="https://twitter.com/rockyourfirefox" class="twitter">@rockyourfirefox</a></p> </div> <div class="cell small-12 large-4"> <h4>More</h4> <p><a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Matrix" class="irc">Matrix</a></p> <p><a href="https://discourse.mozilla.org/c/add-ons/" class="irc">Community forum</a></p> </div> <div class="cell small-12 large-5"> <h4>Extensions Developer Newsletter</h4> <p>Stay up-to-date on news and events for Firefox extension developers.</p> <div class="newsletter" id="newsletter_wrap">  <form id="newsletter_form" name="newsletter_form" action="https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/newsletter/" method="post" data-no-csrf=""> <input type="hidden" id="fmt" name="fmt" value="H"> <input type="hidden" id="newsletters" name="newsletters" value="about-addons"> <div id="newsletter-errors" class="newsletter-errors"></div> <div id="newsletter_email" class="form_group"> <label for="email" class="visually-hidden">Email Address</label> <input type="email" id="email" name="email" class="form_input" required="" placeholder="Email Address" size="30"> </div> <div id="newsletter_privacy" class="form_group form_group-agree"> <input type="checkbox" id="privacy" name="privacy" required=""> <label for="privacy">I’m okay with Mozilla handling my info as explained in this <a href="https://www.mozilla.org/privacy/websites/">Privacy Notice</a>.</label> </div> <div id="newsletter_submit"> <button type="submit" class="button btn btn-success">Sign up</button> </div> </form> <div id="newsletter-thanks" class="newsletter-thanks"> <h6>Thanks!
