We are running a Windows Sharepoint Services server as a public site
(no authentication involved), and are experiencing some problems with
the Mozilla based browsers.

The browsers I have tested with problems are:
Netscape 7.1
Mozilla 1.6
Firefox 1.0 preview

From time to time when displaying Web Part Pages, these browsers
display the HTML as text, istead of rendering it. It gives output like

this:

304 NOT MODIFIEDHTTP/1.1 200 OK

<META Name="CollaborationServer" Content="SharePoint Team Web
Site">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" content="0">
**** rest of page removed ****

This output comes directly in the browser, instead of the rendered
page.

It does not happen very often (1-2% of the time maybe), but it looks
scary when it does.

Anybody know why this happens, and how I can get rid of it?
Is it a config issue in the browsers or in WSS?

I've also seen this kind of output when navigating Sharepoint Portal
Server 2003 pages...

Any help greatly appreciated.

Both WSS FAQ sites are anonymous and I use Firefox 1.0 with both of them on
occasion.

I've never come across similar problems (although the output at the European
site www.wssfaq.com has a large amount of central white space when viewed in
a window)

Could you try the above two sites from the same machine so that we can
exclude problems with your machine / network congestion etc.

Ok... I got some updated info here after extensive testing: I tried the
wssfaq sites, which I haven't gotten the error on, and all the
production sites running on proper and powerful servers appear ok.

I only get the problem in internal development servers, which are
temporary servers which we use to deploy the sites internally for
test/development. These servers run on Virtual PC's, and it appears
these machines are the only one having the problem as far as I can see,
so I might just dismiss it as a problem when running WSS inside a
Virtual PC, either because of performance problems, og network
problems...

I run my test system under VPC on my portable.

But it is a 1GB P IV 2,4 and I do allocate something like 400MB to the WSS
Server virtual machine. (Client is the main machine's Win 2003 Server)

i.e. I haven't seen this although I do sometimes have problems transfering
an extract from an Excel file (ca 200 lines x 5 fields) to a *very* large
list in Datasheet View. That just doesn't work though (screaming at every
line) although it's been less often unhappy since I upped the memory for
that virtual machine.

My test VPC's run on a "server" with 2.8GHz cpu and 2GB ram, with 512MB
ram allocated to each server (it's running 3 servers now)
I'm running the servers as domain members on a LAB-domain we have,
using remote access like with a proper server.
The host computer for the Virtual PCs is running WindowsXP and is also
a member of the LAB-domain.

I'm accessing these computers with browser and Frontpage from my
workstation which is in another domain (production domain)

I have seen that performance is an issue with the VPC's compared to
real machines with the same spec as the VPC, just as you have, but it
does not really explain why the mozilla-based browsers would write out
text instead of rendered HTML (For all I know, it is IIS that writes
the code as text instead of HTML)


Have any ideas of where to start looking? I can't see any special
events in the IIS logfiles either...

I have no ideas. Sorry.
