mac user agent resolving to a toshiba folio

[matt cooper]

With the 2.2 wufl database without any patches installed I have noticed that one of the user agents for a mac is being categorised as a Toshiba folio.

The request user agent is
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_8) AppleWebKit/534.50 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1 Safari/534.50

The data I get back from wurfl is as follows.

User-agent = Mozilla/5.0 (Linux;U;Linux2.6; it-it; TSB_CLOUD_COMPANION;FOLIO_AND_A) AppleWebKit/530.17 (KHTML,like Gecko) Version/4.0 Safari/530.17
Id = toshiba_folio100_ver1

I have tried installing the web browser’s patch, which seems to fix this issue as wurlf returns the following data

User agent = Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Safari/525
Id = safari_525_mac_osx

But with the patch installed the “is_wireless_device“ attribute is always false no matter which user-agent I use, we use this attribute to switch between stadnard pc sites and

Has anyone else seen this ?

That is very strange indeed - what API and version are you using?

I am having this same issue using WURF 2.2 downloaded form here http://sourceforge.net/projects/wurfl/files/WURFL/2.2/

Only occurs when using Safari, works fine in chrome and firefox.

Thank

Can you [both] please tell me what API you are using so I can attempt to reproduce the problem? It's working fine with the Database API.

sorry i have not posted a reply, the api is the latest version 1.3.1.1. i downloaded the api at the same time as i downloaded the database so they should be in line. I have also updated the the latest database which on its own still has the same issue but if i installed the latest web browser patch the issue with the is_wireless_device seems to be fixed.

i have a simple stand alone java application which i can run a sample of our user agents logs over, which spits out a | separated text file with things like the brand, os, etc. it uses spring to load the wurlf manager just like our live websites.

i can post the src and a sample of the input file, or just zip it all up if it will help find the cause
