Reading this I know it might sound like an Apache bug, but I only get the undesired behavior when I request certain types of CFM pages. Please read and help me!.....
SYMPTOM --------- Web browser seems to lose connection with the web server when making CFM requests that take a long time (over 10 seconds) to process. FIREFOX SIDE EFFECT -------------------- When the apparent connection with the web server breaks, Firefox prompts me to download my "index.cfm" file. INTERNET EXPLORER SIDE EFFECT ------------------------------ When the apparent connection with the web server breaks, Internet Explorer makes a second request passing all of the same data a second time. OTHER CLUES ----------- - This problem has surfaced in two unrelated parts (meaning there is no shared code) of one web application and in another web application as well. - This problem has occurred in a simple 3 page site that I wrote. - The problem seems to occur when CFMX is busy doing something like looping over a file write or trying to cache a large query object. - I could not reproduce this behavior when testing requests to a page that did a 45 second pause. - Although the web server seems to cut the connection with the browser, the CFML requests appear to finish because I'm usually able to verify that the thread finished what it was supposed to do on the server SERVER SOFTWARE --------------- Windows 2003 Server Apache 1.3.33 CFMX 7,0,1,116466 WHAT I'VE ALREADY TRIED ----------------------- - I check the Windows Event Log, Apache error and access log, and the ColdFusion logs, and the Jrun logs. I'm not able to find any information that seems to be related to this problem in any of these logs. - I have a copy of SeeFusion that I've recently installed (after the problem had started) and it's not able to reveal any clues - I did an HTTP trace with "HttpLook" and I'm able to verify IE is making a second POST at the server action page 15-20 seconds after I've pushed the submit button. I'm talking about forms that have no special javascript submit functionality. HELP!
