Missing match history (blank page) and the reason why it doesn't work

FREESTYLE BANE·10/7/2014, 10:22:54 AM·6 votes·4,226 views

It seems that some people have troubles displaying the new match history (it shows only blank page instead of match details).

The problem is that some Riot servers are returning corrupted JavaScript library that's part of the page and the page fails to load because of it.

The problem is location based rather than client based. If you are unlucky the page doesn't work no matter what web client you use. The thing is that certain Riot servers are returning the http://matchhistory.eune.leagueoflegends.com/assets/1.0.0/codex/codex/util/I18n.js library cut after 376423 bytes. This is how the corrupted file ends

for reference here is the output from wget (from my PC in East Europe where the site doesn't work)

and here is the wget output from location where the site works (from my VM in West Europe where the site does work)

notice the file size difference.

Hope this helps and someone from Riot sees this and it helps him to fix it.

P.S. I only have troubles displaying the match history for EUNE server, the EUW and NA servers work fine.

Repost: I made a Chrome extension and a Firefox addon which work around this problem.

I try to connect from NA and it doesn't work for me, dunno what the difference is. But I will try a VPN in a different location, maybe that will help.

Just wanted to say I had the exact same issue (even got to the cause being the I18n.js) and wanted to report it as well, but found this, so I am bumping this instead.

I also want to add, that clearing my cookies didn't help, but opening it in another browser or incognito mode made it work.

I am running into this same problem as well. I play on NA and live in NYC. It stopped working for me about 3 weeks ago. It fails on all browsers. Running in incognito mode and clearing cookies do not help for me.

Thanks for posting this, now I don't have to. @Riot, I imagine cloudflare cdn got screwed up.
