broken pipe issue

[vanderkerkoff]

Hello everyone

I've had a good day looking into this and can't work out what the f*ck is going on.

I've updated my django_src as of today, 31/05/07.

My sites are all running fine, but if I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.4 I'm getting the error below appear in my terminal. It doesn't happen with Safari, but it does screw AB up, only one request gets returned.

Can anyone shed some light on this issue, I'd be really grateful.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/core/servers/basehttp.py", line 273, in run
    self.finish_response()

What is the minimum that has to be done to cause the problem? What are you doing in Firefox to cause the error to occur? There is nothing repeatable in this bug report, so it's a bit hard to proceed further.
