Compilation error message on AdGuard for Safari:

• Not blocking everything it's supposed to:

Installed AdGuard for Safari, and went to see "content blockers", and noticed that "AdGuard General" was displaying a red error "Compilation error/failure")

Screenshot:

• Expected behaviour:

I suppose it's expected to be green.

Screenshot: I don't have a "expected behavior" screenshot

@FaresKi Please check your user filter rules, there is something wrong probably.
Something there caused the compilation error, we are interested aswell.

This is also happening to me with Safari 14 on 10.15.7

@JakoDel what filter lists do you have enabled?

Do you have any rules in the user filter?

We still cannot reproduce it, might we ask for .json files in
~/Library⁩/Group\ Containers/TC3Q7MAJXF.com.adguard.safari.AdGuard⁩/?

@JakoDel we're close to figuring it out, thank you for the JSON files. Hopefully, tomorrow we'll publish a hotfix, but it may take Apple some time to review it.

@Mizzick once we have a build with a fix, please post it here so that people could try it.

Dears, probably we fixed the issue with a compilation error. Please, try this build from the link and left a reply if it helps.

I FOUND OUT. I disabled the specific language filter and it seemed to fix the issue.

@FaresKi

1. Which one was the issue?
2. Could you please enable it back (temporary) so that the issue was reproduced and get us the JSON files from ~/Library⁩/Group\ Containers/TC3Q7MAJXF.com.adguard.safari.AdGuard⁩/ ?

[JakoDel]

I think I found a fix. I unchecked the ads filter and language-specific in the filters tab and checked them again. I now have every filter working

[JakoDel]

Oh wow he found it too lol

[FaresKi]

Oh wow he found it too lol

sorry, I was faster

[ameshkov]

Ah, the thing is that unchecking/checking a filter triggers re-building the content blocker.

Actually, I fixed it like 3 hrs ago so I was faster:)))))
Jokes aside, here are the json files if needed @ameshkov

1. Seems the language filter is creating compilation errors.
   _Edit : never mind - I enabled it again and it seemed to not crash._

[ameshkov]

@Mizzick let's prepare a hotfix
