Uploaded Addon issue "Installation aborted because the add-on appears to be corrupt"

Add-ons addons.mozilla.org

I have created a new experimental addon (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/microsoft-power-automate-dev/)

Addon has been reviewed and approved, although when I am trying to install it to firefox is says “Installation aborted because the add-on appears to be corrupt”
Is something that I need to fix or it is something with the firefox sign servers?

If I download it as .xpi and install it for debugging it works fine

Hi @flowrpa, there is likely a problem with your particular copy of Firefox or your OS. There are two quick things you can try before we look further at troubleshooting:

  1. If you are using antivirus software, can you try turning it off and then re-attempt to install the extension?

  2. Can you check your OS system clock? Sometimes the clock will be off and that will cause this error.

Hello @caitlin, I tried different machines and OS, I disabled AV, and resync clock

Same error every time

Thanks for checking, @flowrpa! Can you please file an issue on Bugzilla? Please also include the pasted text from tour about:support page. We’ll take a look.
