279396 - 426 Retrieve aborted; Transfer ok - blocks download manager and causes failed transfers

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Toolkit :: Downloads API, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

I initiated several FTP transfers simultaneously and monitored them in the
download mangager... One of the sessions received an error, and the download
manager popped up a modal alert window with the error "426 Retrieve aborted;
Transfer ok" -- since I was not there to hit 'ok', it appeared to block the
remainining transfers, and when I got back, they were all failed/incomplete
(i.e. had timed out).


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Not sure how to reproduce, you have to have an FTP server which would throw a 426.



Would be nice if the error message was not reported in a modal pop-up, but
perhaps an 'error' link in the download manager (next to
cancel/pause/retry/remove) and cause the download manager to flash instead to
get your attention.

I had this happen to me too - when downloading from the Nero website.

I was only downloading one file from the Nero website, so the error doesn't
seem constrained to multiple ftp sessions.

Is this the same bug as 203214?

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.
