1291248 - http requests are not sent during the upload

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, defect)

Description

[m.jancar]

Attachment: test_upload.php

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:47.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/47.0
Build ID: 20160623154057

Steps to reproduce:

I was trying to upload file (large) to remote apache server via standard upload form (source in attachment). 


Actual results:

During the upload Firefox stops sending other http requests. For example when I open one or more new tabs with random url (Google etc.) pages don't load until upload is finished. 

This problem only occures on some computers despite they all use the same version of Firefox (47.0.1). Other browsers work OK.

Apache server info:
apache2-2.4.6-r4.0.x86_64
php-5.5.2

PC info:
Windows 7 64bit


Expected results:

I should be able to browse other sites during the upload.

This sounds really strange! How long is the upload going? Couldn't it just be that you're saturating the bandwidth so that the new requests are very slow?

Upload lasts cca 1 minute. On one PC where upload didn't work I reinstall Firefox and now upload works OK.
