[C2.0rc1] Problems with IE5.00 - throws an Exception during endDocument processing after sitemap redirect

[Adrian Geissel <ag...@zenark.com>]

Hi,

I've logged this as a bug for C2, but I also wanted to see if anyone else is having this problem.

Scenario:

my sitemap performs some processing (database update) in an action, and on success, redirects to another page before returning using the supplied redirector object. The URI that it points to is also served by the sitemap, and also consists of aggregated content that is transformed - all things legal and cool.

The problem is that using IE 5.00 (WinNT 4.0 SP5), the redirected URI is not completed, and eventually the connection times-out - not very good. To make matters worse, the problem does not exist if I access the redirected page directly from the browser, or perform my database update action from another machine running IE 5.5 (Win2k), the problem does not exist.

Has anyone else experienced this?
The full bug report is at http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4438 (applogies for the long report, but it has taken a while to isolate the problem)

Many thanks,
Adrian

(please don't gripe about IE - this is a real problem - I'm just looking for other instances, and possible solutions. thanks /A)
