firefox connection was reset error for a long request

more options

I have a web service api which takes 5 minutes to respond a JSON response message. In firefox (version 32.0.3), I get a "The connection was reset" error after 2 to 3 minutes. When I call my call my API in Chrome, there is no error and I get the intended response after 5 minutes. I have tried the following without any luck: 1. tweaking timeout values in about:config 2. clearing browser caches 3. setting "No proxy" in network settings 4. disabling ad-ons and starting in safe mode.

Is this a new problem in Firefox 32?

Firefox 29 introduced this preference:

network.http.response.timeout = 300

300 seconds = 5 minutes

So that one should allow enough time.

What did you try tweaking?

I tweaked network.http.response.timeout to 500 and then to 1000 too, still I get "The connection was reset" after anywhere between 2 to 3 minutes in firefox. However, chrome completes the request.

Could you test with some earlier versions of Firefox to see whether this is a recently introduced change? To do that without disturbing your main installation, you can download unofficial stand-alone ("portable") packages of older versions of Firefox from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Ed./

I tried it with Firefox 29 and even 22, still after 3 minutes it just gives a connect reset. Also, to provide more context, I am making a REST API call whih takes 5 minutes to respond. When I deploy the application on localhost, it (firefox) does not give a connect reset error and completes. But, when I deploy it on a remote server, it gives this error.

This secret knowledge might be too obscure for this particular forum. Could you post the problem on StackOverflow and tag it Firefox?
