From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.3-ac2 i686; en-US; 0.8.1) BuildID: 2001040409 From time to time Mozilla doesn't display/load a page until the reload button is being pushed. Once this bug has occured it happens quite often until Mozilla is being restarted. I'm running the wwwoffle proxy along with the webwasher ad buster. Both support HTTP 1.1 so that shouldn't be a problem. I've been expierencing this bug for one or two weeks now (+/-) so it's rather new. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.Surf around 2.Suddenly page doesn't load/display. Only blank page is shown. 3.Hit reload Actual Results: Page is shown after reload is being hit - otherwise just a blank page appears. Expected Results: Mozilla should always display/load pages.

Maybe this is of help. Since this bug was introduced into Mozilla, loading of pages while offline (through the WWWOffle proxy) doesn't work anymore. Mozilla just shows a blank page without any notice what error occured. Nevertheless, loading the general WWWOffle page (http://localhost:8080) works fine though. I also checked if this problem could be related to WWWOffle itself by trying Opera and Netscape 4.7x - both worked fine without any problems. Furthermore pages with frames are diffcult to load also. Just hitting the reload button doesn't work. Usually you have to reload each frame when this bug occurs...
Milestone is for the assignee. Confirming so that someone will look at this bug.

Well. I tried to figure some more details today and I came up with a little surprise. The problem was caused by the WWWOffle daemon which sent "CONTENT-ENCODING: x-gzip" included in every page header that came from the proxy cache. Unfortunately it never got compressed so Mozilla was unable to decompress the uncompressed page *g*. Unfortunately Mozilla never brought up a error message box (like Netscape does) and just displayed nothing. Opera seems to silently ignore the error and displays the compressed-marked uncompressed page fine... So actually the only bug in Mozilla is that it just doesn't report when something went wrong during uncompressing of a page. I've changed the bug report appropriately and sorry for the previous wrong informations but I didn't know better and I was very confident that it was a bug with Mozilla. :-(
Severity: major → normal
Summary: page isn't loaded/displayed until reload is being pushed → Mozilla doesn't display an error message dialog if something fails during uncompressing of a compressed page.

-> defaults, I think it probably works by now too.

Reporter: Will this be fixed by bug 184144 ?

I currently have no way of verifying that but I guess bug #184144 will solve this issue too. It is definitely strongly related. I'd suggest closing this bug as a duplicate of bug #184144.

If you can reproduce the problem, you can download a nightly build from <http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/nightly/latest-trunk/> and verify that this has been fixed (you should get an error page now).
