"Show HTTP friendly error message", XP, XP-SP2 and IE6
We're having a .net web-application having it's cache policy set to
"NO-Cache". MSDN Details: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...classtopic.asp [and] http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...CacheTopic.asp This is important for our site, as no result of a web-form post should be cached. Before Windows XP Service Pack 2 a correct error Message "Warning: Page expired..." was shown. The customers understood! After installing SP2 the error Message "Page cannot be displayed" is shown. It turned out that the IE Option "Show HTTP Friendly error message" has to be turned off to get the old error message. As we have a lot of traffic, people are calling/writing emails thinking our site has an error. What is the best solution? On the one hand we need no cache, but on the other hand we can't explain every customer how to deactivate this IE-option? Thanks for ideas! |

I don't know what Microsoft thinks is "friendly" about a generic error page that does not tell you what the problem is. |
