Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mozilla-firefox
Extensive debugging details are here: http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/ticket/698 # corrupted file displayed to user after failure to download followed by retry It appears that when Firefox 3.5b4 requests a page, if it gets a 200 success with an indicated length of 588,738 bytes, but then the server sends only 2302 bytes and then closes the connection, then Firefox 3.5b4 retrieves the most recent version of this page from its cache, then *overwrites* the first 2302 (or 2304) bytes of it with the new data from the server, and then displays the resulting corrupted file to the user! ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- short read from server results in cached page with the first few bytes overwritten by the short read result https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382444 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
