799920 - VMWare Page not loaded completely

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[Ricardo Barci]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:16.0) Gecko/20121007 Firefox/16.0 SeaMonkey/2.13
Build ID: 20121007195224

Steps to reproduce:

When logging into a vmware server 2 web interface using Seamonkey 2.12 and 2.13 (not tested with previous versions), the first page you go to renders properly.  But if I try to go to any of the virtual machines or any other part of the web interface, it fails to load.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Go to vmware server 2 web interface
2.  Login as an administrator user
3.  Click on one of the virtual machines or any other tab
Actual Results:  
First page that you are shown after you login draws out fine.  Any other part of it fails to draw and just appears as white.

This works in firefox, flock 2 and all other browsers.


Actual results:

Page doesn't show the portion of VM's


Expected results:

It should shows VM configurations and other details.

There should not be a difference between Seamonkey and Firefox if their Gecko Version is the same. In your case the comparable Firefox version is Firefox16.

Please run Seamonkey in the safemode and test again: Help/restart with addons disabled
Create a new, additional profile for testing if the safemode doesn't help :
Tools/Switch Profile/Manage Profiles

In reply to comment #1: FWIW, in recent versions, there is a difference between SeaMonkey and Firefox about how images are displayed: see bug 790918 about a case where some images are blank or transparent in SeaMonkey 2.15 and are rendered correctly in the equivalent Firefox 18. The difference persists between the new Sm 2.16a1 and the new Fx 19.0a1.

I don't have a criterion to say in advance which images will be rendered correctly in SeaMonkey and which ones won't; but AFAICT it's always the same images which are bit by the bug.

Which version of SeaMonkey? Can you confirm that this problem does not manifest in Firefox? Have you tried:
Edit->Preferences->Advanced->HTTP Networking->User Agent String->
[X] Advertise Firefox Compatibility.

Seamonkey 2.24 20140203230027

I just tried right now on a Firefox 22.0 Ubuntu and it works fine.

Still a problem for you?

Your description "vmware server 2 web interface ..." is too rare, how can I do that?
