I have been using it for my day to day web activities, such as accessing my mails, browsing favorite websites etc. Today, I experienced a strange error while using Firefox. I tried to share one of our guide on Reddit platform and got the following error message. + +``` +Network Protocol Error + +Firefox has experienced a network protocol violation that cannot be repaired. + +The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the network protocol was detected. + +Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem. +``` + +![](https://www.ostechnix.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/firefox.png) + +To be honest, I panicked a bit and thought my system might be affected with some kind of malware. LOL! I was wrong! I am using latest Firefox version on my Arch Linux desktop. I opened the same link in Chromium browser. It’s working fine! I guessed it is Firefox related error. After Googling a bit, I fixed this issue as described below. + +This kind of problems occurs mostly because of the **browser’s cache**. If you’ve encountered these kind of errors, such as “Network Protocol Error” or “Corrupted Content Error”, follow any one of these methods. + +**Method 1:** + +To fix “Network Protocol Error” or “Corrupted Content Error”, you need to reload the webpage while bypassing the cache. To do so, Press **Ctrl + F5** or **Ctrl + Shift + R** keys. It will reload the webpage fresh from the server, not from the Firefox cache. Now the web page should work just fine. + +**Method 2:** + +If the method1 doesn’t work, please try this method. + +Go to **Edit - > Preferences**. From the Preferences window, navigate to **Privacy & Security** tab on the left pane. Now clear the Firefox cache by clicking on **“Clear Data”** option. +![](https://www.ostechnix.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/firefox-1.png) + +Make sure you have checked both “Cookies and Site Data” and “Cached Web Content” options and click **“Clear”**. + +![](https://www.ostechnix.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/firefox-2.png) + +Done! Now the cookies and offline content will be removed. Please note that Firefox may sign you out of the logged-in websites. You can re-login to those websites later. Finally, close the Firefox browser and restart your system. Now the webpage will load without any issues. + +Hope this was useful. More good stuffs to come. Stay tuned! + +Cheers! + + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://www.ostechnix.com/how-to-fix-network-protocol-error-on-mozilla-firefox/ + +作者：[SK][a] +选题：[lujun9972][b] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]: https://www.ostechnix.com/author/sk/ +[b]: https://github.com/lujun9972
