100258 - wrong pages are requested, showed url is correct

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[Daniela Jung]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010628
BuildID:    20010913

After surfing a while, mozilla seems to send wrong requests to the sites, so
that a 404 is sent back. The URL in the locationbar is correct, when i copy it
into the IE, the page is displayed correctly. 
after a restart the requested page can be accessed. That only happens with
mozilla 0.9.3 and 0.9.4 under Win2000 with a Sambar-Proxy. I do not have any
problems (except what's reported via the feedback client) under MacOS 9 or
Linux. At least 2 other friends do have the same problem.

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce
Steps to Reproduce:
Surfing around, with links on the pages and bookmarks, sooner or later that will
happen. 

Actual Results:  404

Expected Results:  shown the requested page

There are some known problems with proxy servers; try setting HTTP-Protocol to
1.0 instead of 1.1 to narrow down the problem (Preferences->Debug->Networking)

See http://www.sambar.com/syshelp/proxyfaq.htm (the last item)

The http rfcs don't allow for the concept of a non-transparent 'pass-through'
(aka tunnel) proxy.

As well as changing the protocol version, you will probably also have to disable
keep-alives. This will, of course, slow your browsing down, although its
probably not noticable unless you run benchmark tests or something similar.

INVALID. Also see bug 38488, which is the same problem with junkbuster.
