[Catalyst] IE6/7 HTTP POST form problems

[Hartmaier Alexander]

Hi!

 

Since about two month I'm fighting a problem some IE users have: on send
of a form they don't receive an answer from the web server.

Tcpdump shows that the packets arrive at the web server but apache2.2
just ignores them.

I disabled https on the internal site to make debugging easier but the
problem still exists.

The time the error occurred first was about the same as I upgraded from
apache2 to 2.2 (debian etch).

I search for bug reports on apache2.2 but didn't find any.

 

Swapping mod_perl for fastcgi didn't change anything either.

It also makes no difference if the client accesses the web server
directly or over a proxy.

Strange is that the problem never occurs on my workstation, neither with
IE6 (MS virtual pc image) nor with IE7.

 

Has anyone experienced something similar or has suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

With best regards

Alexander Hartmaier
