Hi,When we attempt to use Alfresco (WCM) on our Linux machine running Alfresco 2.0.0 Community on Tomcat 5.5 and Apache HTTP Server (using mod_jk) the Web Client hangs when trying to create content.It is stuck on "Loading…" and sometimes says: "XMLHttpTransport Error: 0".When we access the Alfresco

Hi,

we are running Alfresco 2.1R1 now but still have this same issue. We are breaking our heads about what could be the cause of this. Maybe someone as an idea?

What we also see is that when the client hangs (after attempting to create or update a content item) and you leave it alone, it hangs for around 16 minutes. After that a XMLHttpTransport is shown and the content item is not saved.

Our Apache logs for the Alfresco Web Client show:

You can see the 16 minute gap. On the last request our server replies with:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

i've been looking at this issue. i'm seeing it happen extremely intermittently when using tinymce controls. i've tried a bunch of stuff with dojo but i'm not seeing anything that is clearly making this more stable… according to firebug, the response isn't coming back from the server - however server logs do show correct responses. so i'm kinda at a loss at this point. i've managed to reduce the number of ajax calls being made by the rich text editor control which is reducing the frequency - but is still not a solution.

i'll keep banging my head against it. just wanted to let you know that i'm aware of the issue and feverishly trying to address it.

let me know if you have any more information as to when this happens. are you also seeing this primarily with tinymce controls?

Is there any update on this issue?

I'm running 2.1Community on Tomat 5.5/MySQL.

Everything works OK on a local development machine, but breaks when put on a host. The Web Client stops with "Loading…" and the last thing in the Firebug is an action on XFormsBean.fireAction.

We are using ALF for a large project and we are hung up on testing until this issue can be resolved.

Thanks.
