0.2.9 - gzip-problem in IE and Firefox

[juer...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I upgraded my kanbanik instance from 0.2.8 to 0.2.9 and it stopped working in Firefox (Version 40.0.2) as well as Internet Explorer (11) . After login I receive an error message:

Login with Chrome works fine.

If I turn off gzip in Firefox (about::config, delete "gzip" from "network.http.accept-encoding") it works again with Firefox.

I don't care much about IE, but is this easy to fix for Firefox?

Best, Jürgen

hm, strange, I have not seen this issue on FF 38 on Linux (Fedora).

If you try kanbanikdemo-jelkosz.rhcloud.com (login/pass: test/test) does it work on FF? 

Do you happen to have some Linux box around from which you could try your setup from FF?

If not related to OS (hopefully not, should not) than it might be related to the data you have (also should not... ).

Tomas

kanbanikdemo-jelkosz.rhcloud.com  works fine with my FF and IE! Hmm, that's interesting. Is there any difference between 0.2.9RC3 and the final release?
 

It doesn't seem to be data releated - I tried to set up a new instance with an empty database and I receive the same error. The initial creation of the collections as well as the data within those collection works. Even the authentification works correctly (entering the wrong password for admin gives a meaningful error message), but after the successful authentification I get the error message with the strange (compressed?) characters.

Sorry, I have no Linux boxes around with a GUI (only NAS and command line).

Maybe it isn't really browser related but server related? I am using a cloud service by IBM (BlueMix and Websphere Liberty Profile as an application server). I will try to use another application server but I am travelling next week so I do that the week after the next.

Thanks for the ideas, Tomas.

hmm, interesting, it seems the gzip implementation of the JRE there is creating GZIP which is not readable by IE and FF. You could try to drop it to some runtime (https://github.com/kanbanik/kanbanik/wiki/Downloads) on windows on linux. When I will have some time I will try to investigate better. Maybe bundle a third party gzip library so it will work the same on each platform. 

But a very interesting issue indeed, thank you for coming up with it!
