From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.0.0; Linux) Description of problem: When I submit several differnet forms within Red Hat Bugzilla, Konqueror displays a page something like: Software error:Couldn't get form data at CGI.pl line 1444. For help, please send mail to the webmaster (bugzilla), giving this error message and the time and date of the error. This occurs roughly 50% of the time. When it does occur I can always click back then resubmit, and it works after a try or two. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Konqueror 2.9.9 (Skipjack) and Konqueror 3.0.0 (3-27-2002 up2date). How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use Konqueror to submit forms while querying or input bugs in Bugzilla. 2. Occasional error pages, reloading usually brings expected result. Expected Results: I am guessing that this is an obscure Konqueror problem because it is the only web browser that exhibits this behavior in Bugzilla.
Bero mentioned a Konqueror form submit patch being in kdelibs-3.0.0-2 but it has not yet hit up2date. Additional Info: I noticed that the Konqueror w/ Bugzilla bug occurs only when Bugzilla takes longer than 1-2 seconds to return the result of the form submit. In cases where the reaction is quicker than that, the submit is successful. Strange...
For extra data: I validated this bug internally.

Timeout in http KIO slave. I've fixed it in 3.0.0-6.
(kdelibs 3.0.0-6, that is).
Tested in Skipjack beta 2 It still occurs sometimes in Bugzilla when I submit some Bugzilla forms, like when I tried to submit this bug update. ... 5th attempt...
Bug 62936 is a duplicate of this bug. Another confirmation that the form submit bug of Konqueror is not yet fixed.

http://www.longs.com/cgi-bin/longs/home/guest.jsp?redirect=/prescription/efills.jsp This page exhibits similar form submit misbehavior. Most of the time when I first submit the prescription refill form, it comes back saying, "We're sorry, but your personalized session on Longs.com has timed out, or you've tried to use a bookmark from a previous visit. To protect your privacy, we have our site configured to log you off after a certain period of inactivity." If I click Back and resubmit the form, it accepts it on the 3rd, 4th, or 5th try. I think this info may help to narrow the problem down a bit more.
Doh. Sometimes attaching files to Bugzilla with Konqueror has a similar errors. Took several tries to attach some patches in Bugzilla.
Re-tested: Still appears to be broken in Red Hat Linux 7.3. Bug 64554 is a duplicate of this bug.
I haven't seen this behavior in Limbo. Could this have been the same issue as Bug 64236?
