(Get the code!)
I just had a test link one one of my own servers. Unfortunately the link is only accessible over SSL with a valid username. Therefore I tried to debug it myself. First I wanted to see the HTTP headers, so I connected with http over ssh instead of https and ran wireshark. Surprisingly enough, the file opened fine this time. So I switched SSL back on and it stopped working again. Then I loosened the restrictions on the URL in question so that it can be accessed without a valid username -- and it worked again. When I turned on the authentication again, it even continued to work, but I am very sure that all settings are exactly as they were at the beginning. Now I am no longer able to reproduce it with this link.
This seems to be quite an elusive problem. I'll get back as soon as I find another example.
