Using Internet Explorer to upload files to my secure
website often fails.
It fails about 40% of the time when I am uploading files
from the C drive of the system running Internet Explorer.
It fails about 100% of the time when I am uploading files
from a mapped network drive. When it fails while I am
uploading files from the C drive and I immediately try
again with the same file it usually works on the second
attempt.
Using a different browser, these uploads never fail.
My website implements the upload using the standard html
form as described in typical/popular HTML "How to" books.
I am running Internet Explorer Version 6.0.2800.1106C0
with Update Versions SP1; Q824145; Q832894; Q837009;
Q831167.
My website is deployed to a WebSphere 5.1 server.
When it fails, the browser posts a message indicating that
The page cannot be displayed, and suggests several things I
might try, such as try again later, or adjust my browser
connection settings or security settings. As noted
above "try again later" sometimes works.
Moving the upload to a non-SSL URL, changing to a
different web server, and changing to a different browser
are not options I can take.
This problem seems similar to the login form posting
problem fixed in Q831167. Is work underway to fix this
upload problem?
