Check the page's source code. All style sheets and a Javascript are at static.xx.fbcdn.net. You must be blocking access to the FB's static content server(s).
Hi,
I've exactly the same problem here. And yes, it's due to "static.xx.fbcdn.net" is blocked. I tried adding as "allow" or "exempt" that url, as simple, also fbcdn.net as wildcard, nothing worked. It's still blocked. How can I allow static.xx.fbcdn.net fbcdn.net while blocking Facebook?
Any idea much appreciated,
Best.
You should only allow static.xx.fbcdn.net as a urllist in your webfilter profile.
Thank you so much for your reply, Mr. Tuncay.
However, I still have the same problem, getting a bad/corrupted website, just like the attached image on workplace.com.
Just as you said, I removed everything in URL filter list, and added static.xx.fbcdn.net as Simple and Allow. The list works good on my clients, (both allow and block URLs), it's just this subdomain doesn't work.
Best regards.
Hi,
I've exactly the same problem. I've inserted "static.xx.fbcdn.net" and "work.workplace.com" addresses in "Exempt from SSL Inspection" on ssl/ssh certificate.
Screenshot looks very typical for page unable to load its stylesheet(s). Even if you exempted them from SSL Inspection make sure that not your web- or dns-filter does block it.
