Longer precompiled JS files not reliably returned about sassandcoffee

[anaisbetts]

I'll look into this, thanks for the bug report

To repeat the problem in chrome, get an existing JS file, say unminified jQuery multiple times.

In Chrome, about on alternating requests I get the following:

This webpage is not available
The webpage at https://localhost:44300/Scripts/jquery-1.5.2.js might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.
Error 330 (net::ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED): Unknown error.

In FF 3.6 I get

Content Encoding Error
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.

and IE 10 is

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage 

I've tried to find the source of the error, so far no luck.

Oops, this slipped off my radar, will try to take a look at it soon

[ScottWeinstein]

Would be great. FYI - I've only tested w/ IIS express. Not sure about IIS or cassini.

It looks like if you have a really long file (I was trying with 10MB worth of jQuery UI), you can blow the stack (i.e. StackOverflowException). I'll try to give you more headroom by increasing the thread stack size, but in the meantime, I recommend splitting things into smaller files. Why are you making users download all that crap anyways?? ;)

[ScottWeinstein]

I'm afraid I didn't describe the problem accurately. Sorry about that.

The problem isn't only limited to huge files but occurs intermittently on small files (5K), and more frequently when downloading larger (200k) JS files.

I discovered the problem when I tried to use SassAndCoffee and it worked on every other browser request. I had existing compiled coffee files, and when SassAndCoffee tried to server up the existing .js file it failed on alternating requests.

When I tried to duplicate the problem in a virgin project, it was only on the larger js files that the problem would show.

I get exactly this problem - hitting the Refresh button on the page reliably causes it on every other request.

First is fine, all JS returned, next returns no JS, and so on alternating between JS/No JS

And these are just .js files - no coffee ones at all

[anaisbetts]

Interesting, I don't repro this at all. Can you tell me more about your environment and browser?

[jakcharlton]

Nothing much unusual, Chrome was browser, HTML was out of ASP.NET MVC, with HTML5 Boilerplate template mostly intact.

Seemed to be some kind of caching going on, random initial requests caused it to fail, repeat Refresh clicks alternated, clicking in page links didn't.

Had to remove SassAndCoffee as JS was more important to me than trying to get Sass working :)

[anaisbetts]

OS? Architecture? VS version? VS SP level?

Win7, MVC, VS2010 SP1

[ScottWeinstein]

Win7 x64, MVC, VS2010 SP1, IIS Express

[gavacho]

Also encountering this on win server 2008 64, fx4 framework, running in 32 app pool. It's like every other request to a .js file chokes with Error 330 (net::ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED): Unknown error.

[jakcharlton]

Yrah forgot to mention mine was Win7 x64 if that makes a difference

[gavacho]

My issue seems to have been resolved by installing windows updates after installing fx4 on the server.

EDIT: Nevermind, issue persists. The issue only presents itself when requesting the .js from a remote computer (not localhost)

[jimmy2saints]

I'll add to this same issue. Win7 64, MVC project, vs2010 sp1, iis express.
Every second requests gives (net::ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED).
(The requested JS file in this case is modernizr-2.0.6-development-only.js)

[anaisbetts]

I believe I've fixed this - can someone who hit this before try again and reopen if it's still borked?

[grumpydev]

@xpaulbettsx is this something I need to look at it Nancy.SassAndCoffee, or is it an ASP.Net peculiarity ?

[anaisbetts]

The fix is in AspNet, you're probably good
