Stale cache on If-Modified-Since unless unconditional GET request
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAGNOLIA-1409
URL: http://jira.magnolia.info/browse/MAGNOLIA-1409
Project: Magnolia
Issue Type: Bug
Components: core
Affects Versions: 3.0.1
Environment: Win32, jdk1.5.0_06, magnolia-3.0.1-bundle.tar.gz, MSIE
6.0.2800.1106,Firefox 1.5.0.10
Reporter: Henryk Paluch
Assigned To: Sameer Charles
After successfull publishing cycle (e.g. Activate -> Inbox Proceed) the
/magnoliaPublic/
returns incorrect 304 Not Modified response on conditional GET request with
If-Modified-Since - as does MSIE on Reload request.
When anyone does uncoditional request (for example Shift-Reload in Firefox)
then cache is successfully updated and all request are working properly (unless
page is changed again).
How to reproduce:
* install magnolia-3.0.1-bundle.tar.gz
* fetch page in MSIE, that you plan to be modified, for example:
http://localhost:8080/magnoliaPublic/features.html
* login to authoring and modify top level "features" page
* Activate that modified page
* Click Proceed on Inbox for this page
* Wait for a few seconds
* try to reload modified page in MSIE
http://localhost:8080/magnoliaPublic/features.html
- the content remains old, although Ethereal reveals that MSIE correctly does
GET request with If-Modified-Since Clause:
GET /magnoliaPublic/features.html HTTP/1.1
...
If-Modified-Since: Tue, 27 Feb 2007 09:29:32 GMT; length=4631
But it receives incorrect response:
HTTP/1.1 304 Not Modified
* now try uncoditional GET (without If-Modified-Since) in Firefox (using
Shift-Reload on http://localhost:8080/magnoliaPublic/features.html) - the page
show properly
* do again reload in MSIE - now it shows that page properly too
It seems that cache is returning stale 304 response as long as someone
unconditionaly requests that page (without If-Modified-Since)
