      I'm trying to search the forums (slbd, slbd 100, slbd 100% (and yes, I have RC2), wan, nat, anything), but all I get is a Squid-message "zero sized reply" at http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?action=search2

      Trying this on another connection (other computer, building, city, provider) I get an empty page (no Squid there)?

      As I get the 'same' result on 2 completely different tries I'm reasonably confident it is not a problem on my end :) Any idea when it'll be fixed?

          You have to search from the room of the forum, not inside a forum area as it will restrict the search to just that area.  This has bit me a few times as well.

            I think what pnieuwkamp is refering to is something else.
            Sometimes the forum-search seems to "hang".

            No matter from where or what you search you get an empty page returned (no text at all).
            Will make a screenshot when it happens the next time to me.

            We do what we must, because we can.

              When I do a search I'm getting a prompt to download a file. If I do download the file it is blank. I wrote a full web server once in PHP. I'm pretty sure this effect is caused when the server responds with a partial header. In developing my web server I found a nice Firefox add on called 'Live HTTP Headers'.

              Using 'Live HTTP Headers' add on I captured the following when trying to do a search for 'openvpn' I started from this url: http://forum.pfsense.com/

                Yes, that's what I mean.

                Using a (transparant) proxy on pfSense I get the error in the attachment. Without the proxy I get a completely empty page. Not just zero results as if there is nothing in the database matching my keyword, but nothing at all, no HTML or anything.

                    Gotta love how it fixes itself after restarting apache + mysql.  Shrugs.
