Hi Cail

I'm thinking it is an IE issue, I'm seeing it triggered by various versions of IE 7 and 8 but I can't seem to recreate it. I don't think the user is seeing anything weird, I'm just catching the exception and emailing it to myself. (It's feeling a bit like the old joke "It hurts when I do this....So don't do that." I just wanted to make sure it isn't something that users are seeing.

Thanks for the tip,

Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,

I have seen these error messages too.

Logging info captured by the ERXBrowser class showed that it always came
fro the same browser type:


IE ver. 5.0.2124.6042

The problem appeared as an NSForwardException thrown in DA performActionNamed
so I handled it there.

Thanks cug

That makes perfect sense. We haven't tracked down a rule that could have this effect yet but it makes sense.

I have recently started seeing these errors come through on one of my apps. It appears from the WORequest that they are asking for .../wa/favicon.ico

The stack trace attached indicates that this DA doesn't seem to exist. I'm using WO5.3. I am including enough Project Wonder to get at a couple of Ajax calls but I'm not extending ERXApplication or anything.

Has anyone else encountered this and do you know what is calling .../wa/favicon.ico ?

It's probably a browser trying to resolve a favicon (which is normally requested for any site, but from the root of the domain). Is there maybe a rewrite rule bringing that to the DA?


i have also sometimes seen those requests and have added a rewrite rule, that rewrites everything with favicon.ico to the root of the domain.
