Nightly WebKit

Tagged as ,

I’d been having a problem with Safari lately: when loading certain pages—like parts of the WordPress management interface—I sometimes (but not always) got an error message about a “bad server response (NSURLErrorDomain:-1011).” Refreshing generally cleared it up, but sometimes I had to refresh two or three times before the page loaded. No useful details were included with the error, and Googling the message turned up nothing useful.

Today I learned, via this Ask Metafilter thread, that nightly builds of WebKit are available via OpenDarwin. I’ve had no errors so far since switching to the nightly build. Hooray for open source!
