1205283 - Print impossible on multipages containing bootstrap css and turbolinks progressbar

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Printing: Output, defect)

Description

Attachment: firefox-turbolink-print-error.html

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:40.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/40.0
Build ID: 20150826185918

Steps to reproduce:

Hello, I've spent a lot of time to understand what it seems to be a bug of Firefox print component. The issue is reproducible when the pages to print contains at least :
- bootstrap css
- turbolinks js (common in rails projects)
- at least 2 pages to print 

I've attached a file containing all those components.
1- Display this file in firefox 40.0.3
2- Menu / Print (to get Print Preview)
3- Press Print button in Print Preview window
4- I'm using option "print in a file"; choose "pdf"
5- Send print


Actual results:

Print is impossible and the following dialog box is displayed :
(in french) "Une erreur inconnue est survenue pendant l'impression"
what I think could be translated by :
"An unknown error has occured during print"


Expected results:

The print should be ok without any error panel. On other browsers (Chrome, IE), print is ok for the same page.

If an error is raised during print, the displayed error could be more relevant instead of writing "unknown error". With a basic message like today, it's very hard to find what is css/js/html element which involves the error... (I'm lucky this time)

This seems to work without any errors now in the current version of Firefox on Ubuntu 17.04 and on Mac. Please reopen if you are still getting errors in the latest Firefox version when trying to print the attached testcase.
