Hi,
hello first, I seem I am new to here 🙂
Does fit me right when just posting when I have a problem but I am clueless, at present.
Following:
I run a steady web site, which gains many registered users every day. A small percentage of them (hard to predict how many, could be 1%, could be more) has browser freezes when on secure (https) pages.
I can't figure out why nor can I really say it just happends on https pages (but the reports I had lead to this)
The user reported about 'browser hangs' and similar. More specificly they said the browser would either not respond anymore or just do nothing (blank page). Certainly I was never able to reproduce this. Reported browsers were IE6 SP1 so far.
Here's what I did to try to come around this problem:
switching gzip_output_compression off
(more to say, I use ob_gzhandler on non-secure pages only)
Removing cache related header output but hand coded a random variable into the URL to get pages refreshed in each case.
Before I thought the problem lies within the forms on these pages. Forms are post, some are very small (like 1-2 input fields) one is a bit more complex.
First the freeze happened on one page only (the first secure page in the row) and I was thinking I had overcome it with switching off zlib_output_compression but then the error occured on a later page.
I know this is very vague, but probably somebody already came across this sympton.
Oh yes, I use FreeBSD and PHP 4.3.4.
I tried to reproduce the problem so I could tackle it locally but failed.
More settings
- phpaccelerator (don't know which version)
- mod_rewrite for url decoding
If somebody had any input I would be very happy.
