277260 - Requested Range Not Satisfiable error when getting to site:

Status: VERIFIED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[BZ]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

I sometimes get three errors when trying to get to sites
(www.pinetreeproductions.com is just an example).

First go to site:  

"Requested Range Not Satisfiable
None of the range-specifier values in the Range request-header field overlap the
current extent of the selected resource.
Apache/2.0.44 (Unix) DAV/2 PHP/4.3.4 mod_jk2/2.0.2 Server at
www.pinetreeproductions.com Port 80"

Refresh works fine, but if I try to go back to homepage I get it again.

Not a lot, but have seen it on other sites.

I could get to the page you specified this time.

The error message corresponds to code 416, and the question is why
you were sedning a range specifier in the first place.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

Though there is no recipe for reproduction, this looks like a True Bill on 
the face of it, at least to the extent that there may be some error handling
or reporting to fix.

Are you still able to reproduce this? If so, we should probably move it to Core::Networking.

I'm going to close this as INCOMPLETE. If you're able to reproduce with Firefox 2.0.0.3 or later using a new profile and can give some steps to reproduce, please comment and reopen.
