Device geolocation service stopped working in test mode on my computer

Recently I noticed that the above has stopped working on my current app being developed, as well as a prior app which I've not touched. I don't know if this is possibly related to the update/rollback issue or some other changes made in appery. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Evgene. Thanks -- yes, I do have some errors. Let me fix them and see if that solves the problem. I'll report my findings back here.

Evgene - I believe there is a problem with the service when used in test mode on my computer using Firefox, and this problem is causing my debugger errors, not vice verser. I say this because I created a simple app which runs perfectly on iPhone Safari. I've shared the app (called "test"). Just click the button on the homepage and you will see the error via the error event. Thanks.

Hi Robert,

Sorry, we don't see any error. On "get latitude and longitude" click we get current coordinates. On success an alert is displayed.

I'm not sure what's happening, but it continues not to work in Firefox for me, but does work in Chrome. I'm going to revert to Chrome, and hope the next Firefox update magically makes it all better. Thanks for your help.

UPDATE: I just deleted and then reinstalled Firefox -- and all seems to be working perfectly.
