wrong addon ID in JSON manifest

[FaySmash]

After the Addon has been re-published it's ID has changed. Because of that the connection from KeeWeb to the Addon fails. To fix it, you have to replace keeweb-connect@keeweb.info with keeweb-connect-addon@keeweb.info in the %AppData%\KeeWeb\native-messaging-kwc.firefox.json

there is already a pull-request for resolving this, but it could be a while until it gets merged / a new release
keeweb/keeweb#2174

You're talking about Firefox. It's merged 🙂

Should be in the next release

Great to hear! But the desktop versions hasn't seen an update in 3 years, so lets see when the next release is ready 😅

Thanks! This fix the issue on my side

Keeweb v1.18.7 and Keeweb Connect v0.3.7.15 on Firefox

I'm stuck. Is there a workaround for macOS?

on MacOS, the following worked for me: ()

Locate the file:
~/Library/Application Support/Mozilla/NativeMessagingHosts/net.antelle.keeweb.keeweb_connect.json

Ensure it includes:
{ "allowed_extensions": [ "keeweb-connect@keeweb.info", "keeweb-connect-addon@keeweb.info" ], "description": "KeeWeb native messaging host", "name": "net.antelle.keeweb.keeweb_connect", "type": "stdio", "path": "/Applications/KeeWeb.app/Contents/MacOS/keeweb-native-messaging-host" }
If "keeweb-connect-addon@keeweb.info" is missing, add it manually
