116373 - Accessing secure sites via bookmark if they are down causes browser to hang.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect, P2)

Description

[Bowie J. Poag]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.6+) Gecko/20011210
BuildID:    2001121008

A few days ago, I bookmarked this address. It so happens that the site is
secure. Anyway, this box has been down and unresponsive for a few days. 

To see if it was back up and running, I chose this bookmark, and Mozilla hung
with the Bookmarks menu stuck open. It'll stay there indefinately, disallowing
any other input from the user.  The bug is reproducible.. Just add the URL to
your bookmarks file and have a swing at it.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add https://209.53.17.13/~djw/XF86Config-4 to your Bookmarks.
2. Make sure that 209.53.17.13 (or the secure server of your choice) is
unresponsive. :) 
3. Attempt to bring up that page by selecting it from the Bookmarks menu.

Actual Results:  Bookmarks menu stays open and Mozilla hangs indefinately.

Expected Results:  Followed the normal behavior for reporting an inacessable site.

AMD Duron 850, 384MB RAM, Red Hat 7.2 stock, nothing **** up or weird kernel-wise.

Works for me using Mozilla 1.3 on WinXP.  Operation timed out.

Bowie, are you still seeing this on a recent build of Mozilla?

Marking WFM due to the last comment.
Reopen if your opinion is different and you can reproduce this with a
current build.
