HTTPs Sites Slow to load on Single Server 2008 R2 Box

Hello All,
I have an issue with our new server where https sites are slow to load or do not load at all in IE 9 or Google Chrome. Using Firefox any page loads fine. I have tested many things, reinstalled IE, downgraded to IE8, upgraded to IE10, checked
the forums, tested SSL settings and still get the same issue.
For example if I open IE, navigate to google.com I will get a "waiting for google.com" that will sometimes take 5 minutes to load; the same behavior is noticed on Google Chrome but not Firefox. I did notice that if I installed google.com
SSL certificate that the page would load normally. I have tested the same method on another Server 2008 R2 box with no issues. I am not sure what the issue could be. Any ideas or direction would be greatly appreciated since this is directly affecting business
for my client.
Thank you!

As Google Chrome is using some IE settings, it might be normal to have a similar behavior.

  • Slow RDP (refresh rate) to Server 2008 R2 from Windows 8.1

    Hi everyone,I have a user connecting to a Server 2008 R2 RDP server. He can connect no problem, but there is quite a bit of latency which I do not understand. He pings to the server at around ~60ms. I have another server on the same site (Server 2012 R2) and he does not experience the same latency. I've connected another Windows 8.1 computer to the Server 2008 R2 box and CANNOT replicate the issue.He appears to be the only one.I've temporarily disabled his AV, windows firewall, disabled local visualization settings (and on the server). I've configured RDP to 56k settings in the Experience tab which changed absolutely nothing.I've also run the netsh commands everyone seems to suggest with this issue.Any recommendations or things to try?EDIT: I've also updated his wireless drivers.

  • Working with firefox 28 on WinXP. https sites load well, but http sites do NOT load at all. Same happens on other browsers

    I've tried uninstalling, downgrading, upgrading Firefox (from version 17 to Aurora)
    and still the problem persists! I've shut down firewall, performed malware checks,
    cleared cache, history and cookies, started in safemode, and still nothing!!
    'https' sites (such as Facebook) load perfectly well, as opposed to 'http' sites that do
    NOT load at all, getting the following error:
    «Firefox could not establish connection to server in www.example.com.
    - The website may be temporarily unavailable or busy. Try again in a few moments.
    - If you can't load any page please check your computer Internet connection.
    - If your computer or Internet connection is protected by firewall or proxy,
    verify if «browser» has permission to connect to the Web.»
    I have the same version of firefox running on win7 on other computer and it works
    normally!
    Some 'http' sites will load if I insert an 's' after 'http' making them apparently
    'https'.
    Help please!! Thank you!!

    well here it is, but are you able to...., but how big can you see this image, or are it just to load it down to paint, well here it is, and as i said, you must translate it, or you must tell me if it are possible and how i change the language, because this was downloaded on norwegian.well, as i said here is it!

  • Internally hosted sites slow to load through proxy...

    Hi Everyone,
    We're having some issues with internally hosted sites and apps loading slowly while on the internal network. We host a Moodle site, a Joomla site, an Exchange 2007 mail server (sorry, no more GW), and a Senior Systems server. All of these, except for the Joomla site, have an SSL cert from either GoDaddy or Verasign. If you're outside of our network the sites load just fine.
    We're running a Netware 6.5 SP2 box with BM 3.8 on it and use the proxy. We use both IE 8 and Firefox (from 3.0 to 3.6) with either manual proxy settings with exemptions for the above sites, or a PAC file with the same exemptions. I don't believe the PAC file is the issue as the slowness still happens when configuring the proxy manually within the browsers. When a user tries to go to one of the above sites while on our network, the pages won't load for around 5-10 seconds. The browser will say it's connected to the site, but it just sits - and then the page will just pop into place. The Senior Systems server is particularly bad, as at times only the background color loads and a few minutes later the login box will load.
    We have our DNS and DHCP servers running on Windows Server 2003 boxes.
    Thanks in advance,
    -CR Hiestand

    so if i understood correctly, you do not use proxy to access this sites
    from inside, correct?
    But traffic is still going thru bm, correct?
    otherwise i do not understand why bm is on blame of the slowness. As
    logn as you do not use the proxy, bm is not involved.
    Best approach will be to take a lan trace and see where the delay happens.

  • Http sites do not load, but https sites do.

    A couple of days ago (on May 23), I noticed that most websites would not load, but a few would.   Then I realized that it was only the https sites that loaded (and it was all of them), and that no http site would load at all.
    I have no idea what caused this, as I was using the Internet like always on May 22, and I have never seen this problem before.  I turned off the computer  and went to bed.  When I turned it on in the morning, I discovered the problem.
    This occurrs in both Firefox and Safari.  The problem just started on May 23, and I don't know what the cause was, or how to fix it.
    There is another computer in the house that is on the same wireless network.   That computer has no problem (that one is a Mountain Lion). 
    I'm really frustrated by this issue, as I cannot currently access most websites on this computer.   Thank you.

    Actually, I think the problem was caused by a conflict between AVG LinkScanner and the Sophos when Sophos updated last week.  
    I had had the AVGLinkScanner on my computer and didn't like it.   I couldn't find a way to delete it, so I disabled it a long time ago.  I thought that it wouldn't affect my computer anymore, but apparently not.  
    I was looking through this forum yesterday and I came across a question by someone else who had both Sophos and AVG LinkScanner installed, and the question was similar in nature.   They said their problem was fixed by uninstalling the AVG LinkScanner, and they provided a link to another discussion on this forum that details how to uninstall it.  So I uninstalled it (finally).
    After uninstalling it, I went back into the Sophos settings and turned back on the items in web protetection.  Then I tried http sites, and they still worked.   I also tried it this morning, after the computer was turned off and back on again, and the http sites still work.
    So maybe some of the other people who had Internet connection problems at the same time as I did had a similar issue -- having both AVG LinkScanner (whether enabled or disabled) and Sophos anti-virus. 
    Either uninstalling AVG LinkScanner or turning off the web protection in Sophos solves the problem.    I think uninstalling AVG LinkScanner is better because it is an annoying program and, evidently, can still mess up your computer even when you have it disabled. 
    I'll look for the link to the uninstalling AVG LinkScanner discussion again so that people can easily find it.

  • HTTPS sites don't load, have to refresh 10 times to load

    Hello
    No https sites load on my computer.
    I really can't recall when this problem started, but it must have been a Firefox update, as I haven't updated my OS.
    For example, to login into hotmail, I have to submit the form 8 or 10 times; the same happens for all https sites: twitter, facebook, etc.
    I am guessing it is an SSL required library or mis-configuration, but I can't see which.
    My Firefox version is 10.0.2, OS Mandriva Linux 2008.1 and my SSL version is OpenSSL 0.9.8g
    Would you help me please?
    Thank you in advance.
    PS: hahaha for example, I had to submit this form 4 times :(

    Does this happen with Internet Explorer, or any other browser?
    You might want to import the other settings from that other browser, using the [[Importing bookmarks and other data from other browsers]]

  • Slow Printing on RDS on Server 2008 R2

    We have resently upgraded from a 2000 Terminal server to a 2008 R2 Remote desktop Server. The clients are running XP Pro and have SP3 installed and .net Framework 3.5 SP1.
    Users are complaining that printing is very slow on the new system and there is a noticable difference when printing.
    We are using the Windows Easy Print to redirect users printers, we do not have any drivers or printers installed on the RDS itself as we want to soley use Easy Print as we have a number of home users all with different printers and most do not have 64bit
    drivers available.
    I have disabled TCP Chimney Offload, RSS and Receive Windows Auto-Tuning Level on the server but this has had no effect.
    Please can you advise on the best course of action to improve printing speeds.

    Hi,
    Easy Print is a new feature since Windows Server 2008 Terminal Services. In the process of Easy
    Print, the Easy Print universal driver acts as a proxy and redirects all the UI calls to the driver on the client. The performance of the feature quite depends on the related drivers which supports Easy Print. In such a case, please consider to check the following
    two factors:
    ·          Check the official website of the printer and install the most updated printer driver supporting
    Easy Print for your printer.
    ·          Update the driver for the network adapter on both the server and the client side.
    Besides, here is a known issue described on the following KB article and please take it as reference:
    FIX: After you apply hotfix 954744, printing performance may be significantly slower when
    you print documents by using Terminal Services Easy Print

  • P45 Neo3-FR - Unable to load Vista or Server 2008

    I urgently need to get this machine opperational as it's for a developer that's starting tomorrow. Herre's the issue -
    1. Whenever i try loading either Vista or Server 2008 (which both use a lot of the same drivers I am told) i cannot get past the first 'Windows is loading files' screen. This did used to just stop at the end of the bar, however with Viat i get the bsod - 0x0000007E - which is a driver problem (from what I've read it's likely to do with the SATA drivers on the MOBO).
    2. Never booted up before, so still trying to get teh OS to start. Here's the specs -
    Seagate ST3500320AS 500GB Hard Drive SATA II 7200rpm *32MB Cache* - OEM - qty 2 (setup with RAID1)
    Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 G0 Stepping (2.4GHz 1066MHz) Socket 775 L2 8MB Cache (2x4MB (4MB per core pair) Retail Boxed Processor
    MSI P45 Neo3-FR Socket 775 8 Channel Audio ATX Motherboard
    Corsair 4Gb (2x2GB) DDR2 1066MHz/PC2-8500 XMS2 Memory
    ASUS HD 3650 256MB DDR3 Dual DVI HDTV out PCI-E Graphics Card
    Please help me out here. I was trying to flash the BIOS as it's currently running 1.3, newest is 1.6. I don't have a floppy drive and have been trying to setup a boot disk via my USB flash drive. SO far this hasn't worked.
    Is the MOBO just not compatible with this setup, or even the latest OS?
    Thanks

    WHat the hell is wrong with this stupid MOBO?!?!
    At the moment, all this looks like a driver problem, not a hardware problem.
    Quote
    Sorry to say i'm not very good at making these types of changes
    ... or a problem with your BIOS settings...or you are simply missing something...
    Quote
    I thought that i had set the RAID drivers up correctly
    The board has two controllers which control different SATA ports:  Intel ICH10R (6 ports) and JMicron 363 (two SATA port (slightly different color).
    The first question is:  Which SATA ports are your hard drives connected to?
    Each of the two controllers can be set to RAID mode in BIOS independently and for each of the Controllers, different SATA RAID Drivers exist.
    - Which drivers did you integrate in the first place?
    - Which of the controllers is set to RAID mode?
    Quote
    I have uplugged one of the HD and set the BIOS to IDE.
    Which controller did you set to IDE mode?  If the other one is still operating in RAID mode, you will need drivers for that one.  
    Quote
    I can run Vista (SP1 integrated?!) out of the box on my P45 Neo3-FR board, with a SATA drive connected to the ICH10R controller in RAID (prepared) mode, so I don't think you even need a special driver.
    Remember: Windows based operating systems are stupid and the generic drivers that Microsoft has provided are pretty much useless (they don't always work).  Also, as I already pointed out, it depends which controller is set to RAID mode as well.

  • HP P1505n printers-slow print spool on Windows Server 2008-3 minutes to print test page

    We have over 50 HP Laserjet P1505n printers setup on our Windows Server 2008 network.  Our pcs using Windows XP Pro SP3.  These printers are taking 3 minutes to spool a simple print job to the printer. After the page prints, it takes 2 minutes to communicate back to the pc that the job was sent.  Eventually, it seems that the printers stop printing altogether because the jobs will error in the queue due to timeouts.
    We have tried different settings on our printers and the drivers from the installation cd and HP website.  We have seen no difference in performance. The time lag is so substantial that it is wreaking havoc with our users.
    We have tried to UNcheck 'use advanced printing features' but this did not help at all. 
    Can anyone help with this problem?  It seems as though these printers were not designed to work with Windows Server 2008, yet they are new model printers.

    HP P1505n does not officially support Win Server 2008. However, just as you mentioned that we can use 6L driver as a workaround. BTW, P1505n was launched back to 2007.

  • Edge animation in Wordpress site slow to load.

    Hi clever Edge people.
    I have an (simple) Edge animation I am putting into a Wordpress site but it takes forever to load when looking at the site on a browser - trying it on ipad, Google chrome, firefox, and safari. The .oam file is 1.9mb. Is that big?
    Here is the link (site in development so kinda messy!):
    http://everywhereyougo.co.nz/2012/11/shakespear-regional-park-2/
    How does it load for you? Any clues about why it is slow?
    Thanks!
    Lisa

    Hi Lisa,
    first of all thanks for using EdgeSuite for wordpress. Did you use shortcodes? Would it be ok to use your site as a reference for edge suite, I would list it on edgedocks.com if you would agree?
    Now to your question: By looking at the network traffic you can tell that your homepage is more then 3.1MB big, thats quiet a lot. Use google pagespeed extension for chrome, yslow for firefox, the network tab in firebug or just http://www.webpagetest.org to get an idea of what's going on.
    For example, the three icons FB, twitter, vimeo are each 500KB big, so these three icons are already have the size of your page. That is one thing to fix, but probably not the only reason for your composition to load slowly. You are using a lot of small assets, it just takes some time to load these. Does the composition load right away locally? If you want to further reduce loading time you could use spritesheets. You can combine small images within a bigger image and clip the focus when using the image as a backgound for a div. And try to reduce Photo1 2 3, each 150KB big.
    What about adding a preloader for the animation, the then user at least knows that there is more to come.
    Just suggestions.

  • HTTPS Site Won't Load

    I'm trying to go to the following site:
    https://sportal.uspto.gov
    However, I get the following error:
    'Safari can’t open the page “https://sportal.uspto.gov/” because it couldn’t establish a secure connection to the server “sportal.uspto.gov”.'
    I can open the page in Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Opera, as well as by using curl from a Terminal window; however, only Safari supports an applet that I need to use at that site.
    From searching discussion groups, I tried enabling the Debug menu and using lax certificate checking, but that option is no longer available in Safari 2.0.4. I also tried fixing permissions and rebooting.
    Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to access this site?
    iMac 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   Safari 2.0.4
    iMac 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    The U.S. Patent & Trademark Office is looking into the problem. The problem was introduced by Apple's update to the file "/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/CFNetw ork.framework/CFNetwork" in the 10.4.8 release. If I replace the CFNetwork file with CFNetwork_debug or CFNetwork_profile residing in the same directory, then I can access https://sportal.uspto.gov.
    The 10.4.8 release allegedly fixes a problem with CFNetwork by setting the default to disallowing unauthenticated encrypted SSL sessions. I suspect this may be the ultimate cause. This raises several questions:
    (1) Is there anyway to use curl or other browser to determine whether or not this is an unauthenticated encrypted SSL connection?
    (2) What is an unauthenticated, encrypted SSL connection? If I type "curl https://sportal.uspto.gov -v", the output suggests that the SSL certificate for the sportal.uspto.gov server is valid. Isn't this the only authentication that would occur? Wouldn't this make it authenticated?
    (3) How can I get Apple to fix this? If there is a potential security problem, Safari should at least give a message that is sufficient such that a user of Safari could tell a SSL server administrator what the problem is so that it can be remedied.
    (4) The USPTO is "working with Apple" to fix the problem. Does anyone have a clue as to what the USPTO configuration problem could be?
    Thank you for your help.

  • Why certain sites slow to load on Macbook

    Hey there,
    Any of you super savvy sleuths able to tell why a certain site may load slowly on my Macbook and super fast on my iMac?
    Both have lots of memory and are running the same operating system.
    One of the sites is:
    http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=92029
    The actual forecast content and table content takes up to a minute to load.
    As well, my bank accounts take a long time to load after I have logged in to my bank site.
    Is it a Java thing?  A flash thing?
    Thanks

    I think I found the issue.  I had an extension enabled called "Shortly."  I disabled that extension and all is well again.

  • Internet sites slow to load

    when opening internet site I get spinning fan for extended periods of time. This just started happening a few months ago.

    You've absolutely no need for anything like Webroot SecurityAnywhere. I'm sure that it's what's mucking up your access to some sites.
    The best thing that you can do is to uninstall Webroot according to the developer's instruction and try to get your money back.
