Http authentication dialog box delay... - praskuma - 05-17-2007
Hi All
I have this following strange problem on Firefox.
When i try to request something from the HTTP server, the http server throws a authentication dialog box, where i need to enter the username and password.
My problem is I don't see the dialog box coming in, the moment i request the page....sometimes it comes ....sometimes it doesnt......and when i click on the refresh button repeatedly .... it comes after may be 5-6 tries.... one the server side i see the following with every request.
"[3041766304] HTTPServer::authenticate: Returning WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="
I also tried to set the browser.cache.check_doc_frequency parameter to 1 and 2 ....still the problem persists.....
Can someone please throw some light on this ?
Thanks
Prasanna
