Problem attaching files in Gmail

Solved

Hello Forum,

I often have issues attaching files to my Gmail messages when I'm using Firefox 23.0.1 (regardless of the size): Failed to attach the file ... sometimes if I keep hitting Retry, it eventually uploads but not always.

When I use Chrome, this problem **never** occurs!!!

It’s probably a misconfiguration of Firefox.

Does anyone have a solution?

PS: This message pertains to both items, I posted it twice in Messaging / Gmail

Configuration: Windows 7 / Mozilla / Office 2007 & Excel 2003 / OOo 3
XP / Mozilla & Chrome / Office 2003

Best regards
Patrice

    Hello Goupilofox

    Excellent!!! Thank you very much.

    In the end, I tried multiple attempts (adjusting timeouts, thresholds, etc.) and ended up disabling one of the functions:

    After typing about:config in the address bar, I found 3 enabled options:
    network.http.spdy.enabled True
    network.http.spdy.enabled.v2 True
    network.http.spdy.enabled.v3 True
    By disabling the first one, you completely disable spdy (so the next two have no effect) and it works!

    After trying all combinations, I found that it’s enough to disable only the last one for it to work:
    network.http.spdy.enabled.v3 False


    Thanks again
    I will mark it as resolved
