Mullvad Browser sometimes cannot load pages #23

Closed PieroV closed 1 year ago

PieroV commented 1 year ago

I think it's due to DoH, but I don't have actual steps to reproduce. This problem is a bit random.

random

maybe completely unrelated, but also maybe useful: ime ocsp servers are often down or blocked (by overzealous adblockers/dns)

fxbrit commented 1 year ago

@SkewedZeppelin it shouldn't be the case because OCSP is not set to hard-fail, plus when it fails it shows a relevant error message.

I also experienced connectivity issues earlier today while playing around with the browser, the error message is the generic one for unreachable URLs. I suppose it could be easier to reproduce the issue after a fresh start since the DNS cache would be empty.

Also happened to me on first start after unpacking. Since then it's been peachy

Closing as no more information has been provided. It could simply be a DoH issue, and more DoH servers have now been deployed.

Feel free to open a new issue if needed.

Have replicated this problem today with Mullvad 13.0.6 [default settings] at the URL:

https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/%5EDJI/

The status bar shows finance.yahoo.com and guce.yahoo.com flashing a few times, then the page says:

The page isn’t redirecting properly

An error occurred during a connection to finance.yahoo.com.

    This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

Refreshing a few times results in the same.

Following the same url on other browsers, using the same connection, displays the page as expected.

That happens also to me with Reddit, but I don't think it's related to DoH.
