51301 - http port not recognized

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 51237

(Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[uamjet602]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.12-20 i686; en-US; m17) Gecko/20000807
BuildID: 2000080712

When downloading something from this site, it will show you some page, which
refreshes to download a file. The file is on the same server, but on a different
port. Mozilla tries to download it from the standard HTTP port (80) though.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to www.mame.dk
2.Click on a game
3.Click on one of the downloadable items (below)
4.Some items have a click through page, click through it.

You will now see a page that sais that you're about to download the file. It
will refresh, and it will show you a page that sais "file not found" because
Mozilla tried to download the file from the wrong port.

Actual Results: I couldn't download files.

Expected Results: Download the file from the port as mentioned in the HTML.

After selecting a game, being redirected to the new page, I get a 404 error as
follows:
Client Error: 404 Not Found

Its propably your own fault, or something bad happend to your request while it
travelled all the way trough Internet.

Try reload the page a couple of times, you could even try to wait a couple of
minutes to see if the problem goes away by itself. If the problem persist please
tell [e-mail] that you tried to access
http://www.mame.dk/f7d69e4e1178595a7bb799b43d34d109/968109902/cur/m4.zip with a
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m18) Gecko/20000904 browser

After selecting the filename again from the 404 page, I get the "Save File As"
download dialogue, and the download proceeds as normal.

Well after some clicking I get a download window too, but the resulting file is
empty, which makes sense, because the page sais:

You tried to download the file: www.mame.dk/number/cur/rom.zip

While the file is on: www.mame.dk:443/number/cur/rom.zip . As the page does not
mention this address because it wasn't asked for, it seems impossible to me for
Mozilla to find the file (without doing some serious cheating).

I believe this is a duplicate of 51237, and am marking as such. tinus_mozilla,
if you feel otherwise, please post here and we can consider re-opening it.

I don't see the problem anymore, but I don't see the problem in bug 51237
either. Might be solved for this OS only.
