Subject: bug#19798: 24.4; eww-mode error in process sentinel 'Invalid date' when receiving a valid date
Date: Fri, 06 Feb 2015 23:49:18 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8761becomp.fsf@ahungry.com> (raw)
When running eww-mode and visiting a site using a cookie expiration date
set to "Mon, 06 Mar 2130 20:55:03 GMT" eww-mode will fail to load
subsequent URLs on the domain (in this case http://ahungry.com) and
instead simply print the following message in the echo area:
error in process sentinel: Invalid date: Mon, 06 Mar 2130 20:55:03 GMT
According to Wikipedia and other sources I can find online regarding the
HTTP cookie expires field, this date format is valid
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie) and should not be causing
an error in the process sentinel (and even if some site sent an invalid
date, I don't think it should halt further site interaction, but either
ignore the invalid date, or ignore the cookie).
Steps to reproduce under emacs -Q:
eww
ahungry.com
RET
TAB
TAB
RET
You'll then see the error pop up (instead of visiting the Blog link on
the site).
