The following is information about the problems we are
seeing with IE 6.0 users of the EBC, a java application
web portal served via an Apache server.
(1) Happens only with IE browsers with Browser Version :
6.0.28000.1106 on Win XP and Win 2000
(2) We have snooped internal messages to get the headers
of the HTTP messages and all have a "Content-Length"
of "0". We have confirmed that other browsers do not have
this problem and are passing the right Content-Length.
Example Below
(3) In some situations, the code actually crashes at the
server throwing out a HTTP 500 error to the user. In
situations where is a simple form POST to the server, the
server replies with a server HTTP 200 and an exception
message to the user.
(4) We first noticed all this behavior with the release of
the IE update on February 11th, 2004.
