Using a form to POST data intermittently causes an error dialog containing the unhelpful message "user canceled action" and the server hostname. By this point konq-e has send the post request, but aborts the connection before sending the "Content-Length:" header and the form data.
Turns out its returning -1/EAGAIN which isn't being handled. No cookie. Patch below is against 4.2-stable, but nothing related to it has changed as of today. cheers, --chris Tag: OPENBSD_4_2_BASE Patch: patches/patch-konq-embed_kdesrc_kio_http_http_cc --- konq-embed/kdesrc/kio/http/http.cc.orig Sat Jan 21 06:49:34 2006 +++ konq-embed/kdesrc/kio/http/http.cc Sat Sep 29 16:21:07 2007 @@ -3882,7 +3882,7 @@ // m_bufPOST will NOT be empty iff authentication was required before posting // the data OR a re-connect is requested from ::readHeader because the // connection was lost for some reason. - if ( !m_bufPOST.isNull() ) + if ( !m_bufPOST.isEmpty() ) { kdDebug(7113) << "(" << m_pid << ") POST'ing saved data..." << endl; @@ -3895,11 +3895,13 @@ QByteArray buffer; int old_size; + int oerrno = errno; m_bufPOST.resize(0); do { dataReq(); // Request for data + errno = 0; result = readData( buffer ); if ( result > 0 ) { @@ -3909,7 +3911,9 @@ memcpy( m_bufPOST.data()+ old_size, buffer.data(), buffer.size() ); buffer.resize(0); } - } while ( result > 0 ); + } while ( result > 0 || + (result == -1 && (errno == EINTR || errno == EAGAIN))); + errno = oerrno; } if ( result < 0 )
