Discussion
The problem is with all attachments jpg rar zip etc.. I reinstaled Firefox after cleaning every traces of the previous instalation, same problem, IE works fine, maybe is a Firefox bug.
I could find some reference on the web ... this is caused by MoinMoin disallowing HEAD requests. I suggest to implement them. Doing so should be quite easy as MoinMoin does not have to return dynamic data (i.e. we can reply with the same HTTP header every time).
- Check if/how twisted is handling HEAD requests.
Reporter: please try to reproduce your bug in this site, which run twisted.
- In this site downloading is working fine with Firefox 1.0 (Win32).
