Corrupted Content error

Post by Robertos »

Using Firefox 7.0b1 the site:
josiasdesouza.folha.blog.uol.com.br
returns:
"Corrupted Content error
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected...."

Loads correctly with Firefox 6.xx, IExx
Does anyone confirm this?
What this means?

Appears to be a site specific issue. I get it, too, on Fx 9.0a1 Win x64.

Might wanna contact the site builder.

I'm getting this error all over the place myself ever since installing FF 7b. I even got it on the feedback page it takes you to when you click the feedback button. Sometimes I see it in advertising iframes while the rest of the page loads.

My ISP (Hughes Direcway) uses a proxy server to help deal with satellite latency, so that might have something to do with it.

I filed this:

I can reproduce in the mozilla offices as well, thanks for testing!

Looks like the server is sending bad/inconsistent data.

* Duplicate "location" headers is invalid.
* If you're sending a "location" header, there shouldn't be any content.
* The second request should not be sending a "location" header.
* I'll attribute the different "content-length" headers to slightly different page content, but I haven't checked.

I'm noticing a pattern. It seems to happen more often when there is a redirect involved, like with URL shorteners. It's happened several times with pulse.me links.

If you read in the bug, Firefox is doing the right thing and the server itself if doing something wrong (possibly insecure). Can you paste URLs here so we can do outreach for various affected sites? And, if you have time, an email to their support address would help as well.

Thanks!

I don't see the corrupted content error on the Google code page when using Firefox 9.

If you can reproduce it in earlier versions, you should probably report it in the bug linked earlier.

I figured it out, it turned out to be a cookie issue

an odd one though, i'd used the same google cookies from 4-6.

FYI, we ran into this problem in our internal website on a page that served PDF files. It turned out that we were inadvertently sending two Content-Disposition headers in the response. Once we corrected that the error went away.

According to comments in the thread below, this error can be caused by duplicate Content-Disposition, Content-Length and Content-Type headers.
