146351 - image instead of web page rendered

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Alex Koralewski]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.0.0+)

BuildID:    2002052212

The page should be rendered, instead one image from the page is loaded.  I tried
this on RC2 and i downloaded the latest nightly build to make sure.  Not sure if
this happens on any other platform.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to page
2. look at what's rendered

Actual Results:  one image displayed

Expected Results:  whole web page (including that image) rendered

It isn't just this page, it happened to me before and i thought it was something
wrong with the site.  However i don't remember what page that was.  Once i saw
it happened at this page, i knew it wasn't a website thing :) Checked in IE and
it rendered fine. :-\

And yes, i have tried re-starting the browser and (even) the system.

WFm with win2k build 20020521..

Reporter: Have you enabled Http pipelining ?
Can you clear Mozilla Disk Cache ?

Comment 3

[Alex Koralewski]

pipeline already enabled, clearing the cache & restarting seems to have resolved
it.  i guess the question now would be, why would it happen in the first place
and/or why would it allow a single image to be cached for an entire web page?
guess the former is more prudent.

Pipelining is a new Feature and a little bit buggy.
Can you reproduce this without pipelining ?
Or is this now fixed after you cleared the cache ?
If yes: Do you have NS6.x on your system ?

Comment 5

[Greg K.]

Alex, it could just be that the cache got corrupted for some reason.

Comment 6

[Alex Koralewski]

could be that too, but how often does the cache get corrupt, i mean it happened
before and i wasn't aware to clear it out.

i was not able to re-produce it once i cleared the cache, the page loaded
properly so this is probably a minor bug.  don't know how to be more helpful to
determine its cause.

i had ns 6.x installed on my mac OS system but i erased it once i found how much
nicer mozilla was :)  i may or may not have properly uninstalled it.  but it
wasn't 'install'ed or running at that time.

do you have any more information about pipelining it? an url or a quick
explaination? my guess would be that it keeps the connection open and requests
multiple documents before closing the connection.

NS6.x can corrupt your disk cache.
Also running 2 instances can corrupt the cache.
Or using a proxy with broken Http/1.1 features (junkbuster....) and Mozilla with
Http/1.1.

Pipelining is a Http/1.1 feature and it should speed up loading on slow-bandwidh
connections. (see the Http/1.1 RFCs)

I mark this wfm because you can't reproduce this.
If you get this again reopen this bug.
