Title: Forwarding domain name to ip:port problem : Nettalk 7 and IE 9
Post by: mark on January 28, 2013, 02:31:43 AM

When putting the latest version of our Nettalk 7 webserver online, we encounter a very strange problem. My domain name is forwarded to an IP:port address (http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xx)

When using Firefox all works perfectly.

But when using Internet Explorer 9 (in Windows 7)
- browsing via the direct IP address works OK
- browsing via the domain name : user can login but "page not found" instead of products list.

Something seems to go wrong in the forwarding process. Can it have anything to do with the String instead of Long session vars ?
I already tried in Nettalk webserver settings
1. shortening the string from 30 to 10 chars
2. use number for session id

but the problem remains. (I did not change the field or variable formats yet).

What could be the reason ?

Hi Mark,

the short answer is - no it's unlikely to be the session.

It's more likely to be something in the cache of the old browser - but if you clear the cache and still get the error please let me know.

cheers

Hi Bruce,

The problem was in the domainname to IP forwarding process, we had to set up a Direct Forward (address visible in browser) instead of a Frame Forward (address hidden for browser)
