958973 - Automatically tab restored FTP loaded TXT file does not reload properly

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Session Restore, defect)

Description

[Keith Steiger]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131205075310

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to a text file served via FTP -- ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware-current/ChangeLog.txt works.
2. While that page is open in Aurora for Android, close Aurora (either by having Android decide it needs the memory, or via the Settings menu).
3. Restart Aurora.



Actual results:

Aurora seems to think the text file is now an empty directory:

"Index of ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware-current/ChangeLog.txt/"

Aurora loses the ability to view this file until the cache is cleared.


Expected results:

It should have reloaded the text file properly.

Thanks for the bug report. This seems to be a very strange case. I was able to reproduce on Nightly (01/12) just once when settings the preference to always restore tabs. Trying again afterwards and I was not able to reproduce; trying a third time I ran into it again. It would be interesting to see if this is reproducible on desktop.
