I am facing an issue related to loading JSON data.

When I monitor JSON call on Developer Tools of Chrome, I get the following message in the network tab of Chrome Developer Tools.

Caution: request is not finished yet

Attaching a snip for reference:

    I doubt it is a duplicate of indicated issue above. We are having same problem after update to chrome version 62. Response is text/html in our case and no keep alive is requested. Chrome for some reason think there will be more response but in reality all was already received and processed by app. Its just makes it difficult to examine result in inspector as it does not populate preview and response tabs. – Stan Oct 30 '17 at 13:59
  • Having this same problem. Any resolution @hiral shah? – jaredrada Dec 15 '17 at 14:46
  • Have you resolved this? Did that 6MB of JSON ever finish loading on the client? If not, can you post the code that is making the request. – Mark Schultheiss Sep 02 '19 at 13:28

It is caused by two-step response loading. If you are using some low-level API, make sure that you fetch not only headers, which arrive first, but also body content that comes later as a stream.

I had the same issue when using the fetch function in JavaScript. To solve it, make sure you call a method that reads the body of the response like json() or text():

// Sends request and loads only headers
fetch('/foo');

// Sends request, loads headers and then fetches the body as JSON
fetch('/foo').then(response => response.json());

In my case response headers were also loaded properly and I had a successful HTTP status code, but I was missing the body content and I had Caution: request is not finished yet inside Chrome Developer Tools.

consider removing all extensions and closing all the browser tabs for me it helped - upon restart, all is well. So strange
