Loading flipkart.com the first time using Fennec nightly works fine. However, upon refresh the page never finishes loading and the throbber seems to be stuck in an infinite loop. The refresh looks the same as the screenshot in bug 1498257.

I used a pixel 2 with Firefox Nightly 66.0a1 (2019-01-03) to reproduce this.

Thanks, Denis!

Sending bug to GeckoView triage for review.

Adding the [geckoview:fenix:p1] whiteboard label because loading Flipkart.com is important. (It's Alexa top site #10 in India.)

Denis, can you still reproduce this flipkart.com bug? I can successfully load flipkart.com in Fennec 65, Fennec 67 Nightly, and Focus+GV 64.

Like you mentioned in comment 0, this bug sounds a lot like bug 1498257. We can probably close this bug as a duplicate of bug 1498257.

Denis, can you still reproduce this flipkart.com bug? I can successfully load flipkart.com in Fennec 65, Fennec 67 Nightly, and Focus+GV 64.

Yes, still reproducible for me with Fennec Nightly and even reference browser on the Pixel 2. Not reproducible on Focus. The initial page loads fine now that 1498257 is fixed. It's upon reload that the problem happens for me. That being said, I can't reproduce it on the Moto G5 or some other devices I have, so it could very well be something specific to my environment on the Pixel. I'm happy to close this and we can revisit it if someone reports a web compat issue to prove it's not specific to my env.

I asked another person with a Pixel 2 to test in the Reference Browser. They were able to reload flipkart.com successfully. Maybe you have some old files cached? Maybe try reproducing in Private Browsing mode in Fennec (so simulate clearing your browser cache) and then closing this bug as WORKSFORME?

Another person tested in Fennec Nightly on a Pixel 2 and was not able to reproduce the problem.

Another flipkart.com bug was reported to webcompat.com that required Flipkart to fix a CSP bug on their side last week. Maybe that is related if your browsers have cached the old versions of the pages?

Yes, good call on this. In private browsing mode both Fennec and R-B load the site perfectly fine on refresh. Thanks for the tip.
