Server: IBM Websphere 6 with IHS plugin. Wicket 1.4.13. Java6. The client side is mostly Internet Explorer 8, 9. Compatibility and Non Compat modes.
Description
I am experiencing an issue where the browser is not submitting POST data from an ajax request and so the server waits for it and hangs. The browser, mostly IE8 will send the header information and the content-length is 36 but the server never receives that 36 bytes of data.
I see the issue on IE8 and IE9 with and without compatibility mode.
But I DON'T see the error on other browsers.
It happens about 10% of all the requests out of 100,000 requests.
What would cause this issue? IE bug? IE bug with ajax requests?
It seems to happen mostly from the client side. Is it possible that Internet Explorer has some kind of bug where it won't send that data?
I read somewhere that IE can only have one connection to the server, maybe two are being opened.
Here is a snippet from the framework code:
Wicket Java Code:
dropDownComponent.add( new AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior( "onclick" ) {
@Override
protected void onUpdate( final AjaxRequestTarget target )
// End of the method //
} );
wicket-ajax.js:
...
Javascript call on the client-side:
1. t.open("POST", url, this.async);
2. t.onreadystatechange = this.stateChangeCallback.bind(this);
3. t.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
4. // set a special flag to allow server distinguish between ajax and non-ajax requests
5. t.setRequestHeader("Wicket-Ajax", "true");
6. t.setRequestHeader("Accept", "text/xml");
7. t.send(body);
