Symptoms

IBR tags might occasionally be all zeroes.

Impact

The content hash for that URL can be incorrectly set to all zeroes, causing an incorrect IBR for that item until it is recached.

Conditions

This might occur when requests to OWS to update cached, expired content, receive updated content from OWS that has no Content-Length header and is uncacheable (that is, served with X-WA-Info code S10206).

Workaround

Avoid the specific preconditions, or disable IBR-TO for the specific content meeting the preconditions.

Fix Information

Uncacheable updates from OWS will no longer set IBR tags to zero.
