i installed a clean media wiki 1.5.4 on windows 2000, iis 5.0. everything works fine on the wiki, but there is one computer that shows strange behaviour. any form submission, e.g. login, create article, etc., always results in a blank page. if i press refresh, the browser asks do i want to repost. in some cases, the login will actually have been successful but there is no response at all to indicate this. this problem has only occured on one computer, XP professional, Internet explorer 6.0 service pack 1. i cannot reproduce the behaviour on any other computer. the IE settings are set by local security policy, which applies throughout the organisation. other computers in the organisation do not have the problem. i suppose it's not possible to solve it if i can't reproduce it, but perhaps it will be helpful to post it anyway in case future users encounter the same problem.
hi, just to add to my description, it's actually not a time-out. the form is submitted and a blank page is returned to the browser. so it's not like the web server is stuck in a loop or anything. tim.
Old report, old version, one-off on a single machine...going to close.
