Tried approx. 20 web sites in IE3 @ WinNT 4.0, sometimes CSSes taken about a minute to load (in a virtual machine running on Core i3!), however, the browser hasn't hang or crash. Seems that this is a bug of IE3 (not a surprise, it is a one of first browsers with CSS support). As I remember from mid-2000s, it worked very slow then, mostly on sites with a lot of pictures or styles.

That's my experience as well. If it's just a bug with IE 3 then I suppose I'll have to deal with it, but I would like to conjure up a test without using WebOne to isolate if it is indeed an IE bug

Hi ATauenis,

I keep getting this error while attempting to upgrade to the latest version of WebOne on Linux (I was on 0.10.2 before):

I can't seem to make it work. Tried removing the package and then installing, no luck. Have you encountered this?

Hm! Yes, seems, the packages of WebOne 0.10.5 are broken. Visual Studio has changed line endings from LF to CrLf between my testing and building of release packages.

Try to edit /var/lib/dpkg/webone.preinst, webone.postinst (the path I have written by memory) and re-add line endings in Linux text editor. Then re-run the scripts with sudo.

I'll release fixed packages soon.

  • Fixed DDoS vunerability (#23), which was also available only on public hosts.
  • Fixed an memory leak.
  • Fixed display of errors.
  • Fixed broken installation on Linux (#26). Thanks to keenmaster486 for report!

That package installed just fine! It's running as a daemon now.

However, it doesn't seem to be working for me now for some reason. It hangs when trying to load any website and times out internally. If I wait long enough I get a WebOne error page saying "timed out". The log reflects the same. Not sure how I can fix this. Haven't run it as a daemon before; could it have something to do with that?

No. This seems to be an network issue. Or this may be caused by firewall, system settings or something.

Try to stop the daemon ($ sudo service webone stop) and then re-launch proxy as a regular program ($ WebOne or $ sudo WebOne). Will the proxy be able to connect?

I figured it out. Something was going wrong with IPv6 on my server. I'm not sure why. Disabled IPv6 and now it works fine. Will need to investigate this further.

Just for fun checked on my test machines, seems, the proxy does have some support for IPv6. When opening in regular mode (through proxy) I'm got "Bad Request - Invalid Hostname" message from .NET Core Runtime (it is shown not by the proxy, but by the HTTP library I've used in it). However if open in "local mode" http://localhost:8080/http://[2a00:1450:4010:c0d::65], it is opening correctly (a Google's 404 error, just as on http://[2a00:1450:4010:c0d::65]).

Upd:
http://ipv6.google.com is openning correctly in both regular and local modes.
