Free Republic Errors Now When Using Brave Browser
Me | 1 22 2017 | Me

Posted on 01/22/2017 4:35:58 PM PST by stayathomemom

Since Free Republic has come back online, I can no longer access it using the Brave browser. The page loads, but as soon as my sidebar appears, the page errors and I get this message:

The HTTP response body is transferred with Chunked-Encoding, but the terminating zero-length chunk was never sent when the connection is closed.

Has anyone else experienced this and have a solution or an explanation?

As far as I can tell, I'm not having problems with other pages loading. For now, I'm using Firefox.

Microsoft Edge words fine. Absolutely no problems.

BTW, try clearing your browser cache and temporary files.

I am using Brave on Windows 10 as I post this and am experiencing no problems.

Just tried Brave. Seems to work fine. And if this posts, that’s further evidence.

Relog using the beeber chipset. Use the “hirvi juusto” server settings.

Let me know how it turns out; I’m headed for the showers.

I’ve noticed that the main page (freerepublic.com/tag/*/index) is a bit slow to load. There will be the first five or six lines of text, but the rest of the page is blank for maybe ten seconds. This started happening back when the last outage occurred. No other site does this so it isn’t the computer.

“BTW, try clearing your browser cache and temporary files.”

I used to do this in the past, but I’m having a senior moment and can’t remember how. Can you refresh my failing memory here?

Took me a while to figure out where that was hiding in the Brave browser. Didn’t seem to help. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Heat’s off. The light bulb just came on and I remembered how to clear the browser. Thanks anyway.

I'm experiencing exactly the same thing, only sometimes it takes longer than 10 seconds. The same happens when clicking on a link to a thread.

Re: “BTW, try clearing your browser cache and temporary files...”

That worked for me a few weeks ago when Drudge came back online after a Denial of Service attack.

I use Edge, and everything on my computer worked fine, except Drudge. I cleared my browser cache, and, poof, no more Drudge problems.

Since I switched to Windows 10, I try very hard not to clear my Browser (Edge) because that action wipes out all my pre-set passwords and screen names, and makes my computer unrecognizable to my Bank and other websites, which is a serious time consuming headache.

But it's worth a try if you miss Drudge as much as I do.

Okay. Something is goofy with my computer then. Thanks for letting me know you were having no problems.

Using Chrome. For the last month many pages will load the first 10-20 lines and then hang. Reloading sometimes fixes. It’s getting annoying.

Have you noticed all the glitches since 0b0z0 gave away American control of the internet?

Using Brave on a iPad, OSX10.2. No problems.

Brave is my goto browser now. I wouldn’t try Drudge or Brietbart without it.

That issue preceded the weekend shutdown, I believe.

Not sure what is going on, but that is not a new issue.
