SharePoint 2013 iApp and page loading issues since applying a CU

We are using iapp f5.microsoft_sharepoint_2010_2013.v1.1.0 for a SharePOint 2013 farm. We have one irule that fixes a ribbon issue and that has worked well until a recent CU was applied to SharePoint...

Hi yeahnhayeah, we haven't run into this issue, but we'll try to repro in our lab. Have you taken a traffic capture with something like Fiddler or Wireshark to view the response you get when you have 5 web parts on the page versus 4?

 

thanks

Hi Mike,

 

Yes I did try Fiddler. The page seems to get stuck loading and finally returns a 504 error in Fiddler, though on the SharePoint site it actually displays the page.

 

Also, attempting the same page from the SharePoint server was ok, so it points to an F5 type issue. I've also tried turning off Minimal Download Strategy feature and it makes no difference. I should also say that when I tested initially with a list view web part the list had probably 15-20 list items with no filter. So I have added the same list view web part onto the same page 5 times. When I reduced the list items to about 3-5 items, the 5 web parts worked on the page ok. So in terms of testing in a lab you would want to have a list with I would say 15 or more items, then add the list view web part onto the page 5 times. But like I said earlier, 4 listview web parts regardless of the number of list items appeared to work ok.

 

I should also say that the site is a hostnamed site collection and is SSL offloading.

 

Appreciate your help and would be interested to hear if you can reproduce.

 

Cheers Andrew
