Cache problems in IE8 and FF3.5.4

Hello,
simple things first: Excuse my bad english, i´m from germany.
My problem:
Two weeks ago, i updated my PC. Everything is fine, except when playing videos,
the system cache is rising fast until my browsers run very slow and the whole system stops/crashes.
IE8 is running a bit more stable than Firefox 3.5.4.
First thougt: Virus. I ran two scanners (Kaspersky and Antivir), then Ad-Aware. Nothing.
Next steps: Hijackthis and ccleaner. Everything is fine. Problem still occurs.
I´ve been around a couple of forums in the last weeks, nothing worked.
I think it´s got something to do with flash, but can´t figure it out.
Any Ideas?

Problem solved?
I´ve had some updates from Mozilla, Microsoft, whatever.
Current Situation is:
IE8 is ok. System Cache is fine.
FF3.5.5 still down when trying to view Videos or using other Flash-related things.
Is it possible that something in Flash is interfering with JAVA?
This has been the last update today.
Greetings,
N4gel

New fingerprint software is not working with IE8 and FF3

I have downloaded the latest version but it still does not resolve the issues with IE8 and FF3...
Please, Please...
Fix the main issue of the software unable to save website login details with Internet Explorer 8+ and Firefox 3+
Thanks

Hello
I am pretty sure they know about this issue and software companies must not hear what the people say. For me it is logic that they watch what happen on the software market and try to adapt own products as soon as possible.
This issue with IE8 is known and soon or later the updated version will be offered on download page but the question is: when?
I cannot understand why they wait so long time. OK, to fix some issue and testing procedure can take a days but IE8 is not on the market from yesterday.
Lets see how long it will be necessary for AuthenTec to fix this issue.

Caching problem in Chrome and Firefox

Hey folks,
I ran into a weird problem. I created a video player based on the Strobe Media Playback. I added a couple of plugins. This player is used to watch progressive download FLV files.
I ran into the following issue. I watch part of a video. I select another one. Then I select the previous one again. Only the cached portion of the first video is shown. The entire video will not be downloaded again from the server, but only the portion already cached on the client.
This problem is really bad in Chrome. When I restart FF, I can watch the entire video. Not in Chrome. The only way to solve this in Chrome is to clear the cache.
Any ideas?
The website is live, so you can test this yourselve. http://www.submergeproductions.com/videos.aspx
All help very welcome, because this is a major issue.
Follow up. I made a quick fix. I added a random number to the FLV url to force a redownload from the server, but this quite a dirty fix. I would rather have a restart/continuation of the download if the file was only partially downloaded.
Thanks,
Peter

Hi Silviu,
the reason why it works now is because I uploaded a modified version. I append "?<random number> to the URL. That prevents caching problems because the browser hasn't got the version cached. But I still report it as a bug.

Problems with IE8 and latest Flash

On three discrete web pages from different organisations I am having problems which I think track back to the Flash product -
on eBay when I am loading images the usual software (called standard) that I have used for many years says that I need to download the latest version of Flash. I went through a successful (tested it had gone) uninstall and reinstall but still after clearing cache etc. rebooting etc. ebay still says load the latest version.
on UK Met Office site a weather map which is central to their product offering never unpacks onto the screen - just sits there saying loading. Sometimes MS comes on and says the script is slowing down the computer but nothing ever loads.
on BBC iplayer when one selects a program the web page should put up a static image of the program which may then be run by clicking a play icon. The image never appears and so no programme may be viewed, after a while MS comes on and says do I want to stop running the script. No difference if I say yes or no, still the frame/image is not unpacked.
I am on IE8 32 bit system and have checked with your software that I have the latest and have reloaded it too. Any ideas ?
many thanks

Chris,
Everything absolutely works on Chrome, many thanks - I'll use that. Still
nothing on IE8 where the problem is as previously stated.
I wonder how many IE users have a similar configuration to me and are
blocked.
Chrome now working fine and programmes being displayed and selected without
problem. (I have not touched Flash)
Many thanks for your blog and support. Most excellent.

Problem with IE8 and Flash on LL Bean website

My desktop machine is running XP SP3 with all updates and the latest Flash Player. When visiting the LL Bean online catalog you view the products which have small pictures associated with them. If you click on a picture a larger window opens up with zoom controls etc which gives you a much better idea of what the product looks like. This works perfectly with my laptop running the same software setup as well as my work computers. With my desktop the image loading progress bar runs to the end of the bar and then just sits there. It doesn't hang IE8 or anything...it just sits and does nothing. I can close the window and go back to browsing the catalog with no problem until I try to view another larger image where it does the same thing.
So far I have not run into any issues with any of the other websites I have visited.
I am hoping the experts here can help me resolve this problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled flash 3-4 times. I have read several articles on google but none quite like what I'm experiencing...I have run into a brick wall.
Any help tearing the wall down will be much appreciated.

It do happen with IE many times. Few flash files works exactly in other browsers but in IE they dont. Try to update the IE latest software or patches from microsoft website.

URL cache problem in UCM and sitestudio

Hi ,
We have created Metadata Field : xPageName, and have configure an entry in config.cfg as SSUrlFieldName=PageName, Scenario is we have assigned abc.html to xPageName for a content item on suppose /oracle/cms1/ URL, by mistake we assigned abc.html to xPageName to another content item on suppose /oracle/cms2/ URL. Problem is abc.html is registered with two content item and on two URL's, and now we have changed it for /oracle/cms2/ URL to xyz.html, but when we hit /oracle/cms2/abc.html it is also served with blank page. Please suggest how we can get away with this ASAP.
Thanks,

That is definitely a limitation that each custom page name must be unique.
If think what you are saying is that you have resolved this issue but the URL is still taking you to the wrong page...
THis stuff is cached IIRC in some js files in the weblayout
Have you tried, clearing browser cache, recreating the navigation in SS Designer, or restarting UCM and webserver?

Possible cache problem ftp scenario

hello,
we have the following scenario
ftp -> ftp
very simple, no integretation rep needed, interface -> none, namespace -> http://none
just pick up the file and put it on another server
strange thing is that the receiver uses for target directory the source directory of the sender to put the file
could this be a cache problem, we cleared the cache but the problem remains
regards,
Michel

Hi Michel,
Very strange problem indeed.. not convinced this is a cache problem.. have you checked the cache overview in the Integration Directory ?
If it is a cache problem, deleting, activating and recreating the ftp receiver could solve it.
Using another receiver Business System/Service will surely avoid a cache problem, as an object with a completely different key will be created.
Can you see the correct receiver channel being called in the Message Monitor ?

Peter

Problem with IE8 popup blocker and Windowless mode

My team is having popup blocker issue, which is crippling our system where a large range of users are now complaining that their links or buttons will not open in IE7 or IE8 and results in the pop-up blocker message.
Our Flash application's embed code needed wmode set to windowless ('opaque' or 'transparent') since we need to place floating HTML objects over the Flash application. But all links (within static text content) with target set to '_blank' or a custom name and also all navigateToURL() methods with the same target values are now resulting in IE pop-up blocker message once the window mode was changed to 'opaque' (same result also with 'transparent').
We have a AS3 work around for the navigateToURL() method but no solutions for 100s of pages of simple HTML content contributed by users that have links as well as our own Flash static-text content with links.
Here is a simple page created to demonstrate the issue - http://clients.projectmiso.net/photobiz/custom_lightbox/Test_File.html
And the ActionScript 3 code -
var clickFunction = function(){
var targetURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.yahoo.com");
navigateToURL(targetURL, '_blank');
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickFunction);

Hi!
One thing you could try is to use MOUSE_UP instead of CLICK
( tip-source : http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=176795 )
This example uses clickTag parameter (through flashvars) instead of a hardcoded URL inside the flashfile though,
but I'm sure you get the point:
clickBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, function(event: MouseEvent): void {
var sURL: String;
if ((sURL = root.loaderInfo.parameters.clickTag)) {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(sURL), "_blank");
clickBtn.buttonMode = true;
clickBtn.useHandCursor = true;
Or you might want to have a look at this workaround :

Ie8 and clearfloat problems

Hi,
I'm using
ie
tester to test my css and I've run into a problem with ie8. For
some reason it appears to be ignoring my clearfloat style. Here's
the page:
http://www.esc-online.com/neher/linecard.html
Notice how in ie8 the lists are sitting below the spry tab
content area and also below the outer wrapper area. My footer is
also crammed over to the right. In all the other browsers I don't
get this problem.
I think it comes down to how ie8 interprets this line of code
(basically a hack) which I have used to keep the content inside the
defined areas:
 
The style for this is as follows:
.clearfloat {
font-size: 1px;
line-height: 0px;
clear: both;
height: 0px;
Seeing as ie8 is supposed to be more css compliant than the
rest, is there a better way to be keeping content contained within
a defined area than doing it this way?
Thanks
LA Gooner.

There are various ways to clear a float (you could just
google for that
term). Personally I prefer to simply apply an "overflow:
hidden" to the
floated element. It's a very elegant way and works well in
almost every
browser, but is not recognized by DW yet.
http://www.quirksmode.org/css/clearing.html
Also remember that IE 8 is still beta. Passing the ACID tests
is nice,
but doesn't necessarily mean that it will work well in
practice yet.
I've even seen reports about IE 8 totally screwing up
websites which
worked in IE 7, so the developers still have a lot to do. I
wouldn't add
any specific hacks or workarounds until an RC (release
candidate) is
published.

Looks like you have to upgrade to at least 7.8.2.16.

Help - Problems with the Compatibility IE8 and IE9 (ADF)

I want to know because some parts do not fit in IE browsers versions 8 and 9. I've done these actions of this tutorial but I saw the compatibility mode is enabled on the page components to function normally. But the bigger problem is compatibility with AJAX components, which have tables that update when the information is recorded in real time, shows a loading bar (which is a component that fetch data) when you enter information, this bar when the browser is in compatibility mode (IE9) remains on the screen no action, and when the page is removed this compatibility mode works but load bar components are inserted all dysfunctional again, ie the application works perfect works only in firefox but the problem is I need to work on IE9, here's the link that made the changes,
[http://blogs.oracle.com/jdevotnharvest/entry/running_adf_faces_applications_with_ie_9_in_ie_8_compatibility_mode|http://blogs.oracle.com/jdevotnharvest/entry/running_adf_faces_applications_with_ie_9_in_ie_8_compatibility_mode]
If anyone has experienced this and can give a help

Hi,
think I should remove the blog post or make it more apparent that this is for testing purposes only. ADF Faces does not support IE compatibility mode in production because of known issues in IE. So while you can use the solution I documented to install a newer version of IE while still developing for an older version, it is not supported at runtime. In your case, use IE9 native (or install IE8 and use this native) and run it with a JDeveloper version that is certified for the browser version.
Anything showing different in IE9 native than in IE 8 native (using a JDeveloper version certified for IE9) then can be considered a bug

OD Master and MCXD Cache Problem

Hi,
has someone an idea how to solve a mcxd Cache Problem?
Always when I sate up the OD Master after a new installation of Mac OSX 10.4.11 Server, I get the mcxd problem after the reboot. After the reboot I have always this massage, see system.log in our system.
SYSTEM.LOG
Mar 5 21:45:23 mainserver /System/Library/CoreServices/mcxd.app/Contents/MacOS/mcxd: DSGetLocallyHostedNodeNames(): dsFindDirNode() == -14008

How can I solve this problem?
This problem makes my crazy since 3 weeks.
And is this problem known under Mac OSX Server 10.5?
To our server system:
One XServer G5 is the DNS Server and
A second XServer G5 is the OD Master.
Thanks for your help!

Hi
+"Is the replica truly read only?"+
It should be. However I've come across a similar situation. At a site I support the local admin was creating users and editing passwords on the Replica rather than the Master. He kept getting the usual "dsDirectoryetc" errors but he persisted and eventually got the settings to 'take'. Querying the databases on both Master and Replica produced similar results to yours. It was difficult then to go back to the Master and 'redo' properly what he'd done as he'd not kept track of the changes he made. To 'fix' I simply demoted/repromoted the Replica which worked for me. Although time will tell if it turns out to be a permanent fix?

Setting OF LD_LIBRARY_PATH AND WEB CACHE PROBLEM [SHOWING PREVIOUS PAGE ]

Dear Members,
I would request for help regarding setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in Oracle 11G Application server and web cache problem when any single text file edit and save the result should not be changed . it shows previous page result.
*1. Where to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH in Oracle11g Application Server (10.3.0) ? [ like in 9ias we set in opmn.xml . ] Where is opmn.xml file in oracle11g or which files contained LD_LIBRARY_PATH?*
*2. When we created program generated report it shows correct result after some changes in file and generate again it shows first means previous page result as it is not take changes in that file. Even we tried out side made one .text file and open edit and save. It's given same result. So What is the problem regarding it?*
It is the matter of Browser Cache or WEB Cache. Where is the settings of it?
*3. How to connect database (oracle11g Release 2) through OCI driver?*
Regards
Vipul Patel

If you're compiling it yourself, you should set the library path then. If not, you can try something like this:
env DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/add-on-libraries orca ...
but I'm not sure it will work.

Some web pages come up blank, generally following a link, that have opened without issues in earlier FF versions. Pages open OK in IE8 and/or in Chrome. Have tried the cookies clearing etc as suggested elsewhere, without success.

I'm running FF 3.6.8. Certain websites (no apparent pattern, no secure sites) come up blank (white screen), showing "Done" on the footer. It generally happens when clicking on a link in another web page but no login or similar is involved to get to the intended site. Have cleared the cookies and followed the advice for a similar issue stated elsewhere on the Help forum, to no avail. Have also not added any add-ons since that recent FF upgrade.
The affected sites have come up without issues in earlier FF versions, and they do load in IE8 and in Chrome. A representative example is shown below. - Will appreciate any helpful comments and recommendations!

"Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now" 
"Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies" 
 
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Problem with youtube and other video websites

I have a problem with youtube and other video websites:
Everything is up to date (flash, FF, my plug ins..) but i keep getting freezes when the video loads. I can hear sound but i can only see the first frame of the video.
I've reinstalled flash/firefox or tried updating them again for about 4 times now and my cookies/cache has also been errased which i usually don't do. If i enter FF's safe mode it also freezes.
I hope someone could help out, i've searched for answer on google before and tried everything i saw but it didn't helped.
grts,
agrash

Hmm, so that person had a conflicting plug in.
Problem is that whenever i enter firefoxes safe mode which disables every plug in, i still have the youtube freeze/crash
