--------------------------------------
Summary: Cache Disable Headers Break IE8 Under HTTPS
Key: WICKET-5372
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-5372
Project: Wicket
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wicket
Affects Versions: 6.9.0
Reporter: Brandon Fuller
Priority: Minor
I am serving up a non-cached PDF resource from Wicket with:
getRequestCycle().scheduleRequestHandlerAfterCurrent(new
ResourceRequestHandler(pdfResource, null));
All is fine for most users. However, our IE8 users cannot perform the
download. The get a dialog saying that the resource cannot be downloaded. I
did some testing and found that it works fine over HTTP but not HTTPS.
I found this stack overflow article that explains:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1038707/cant-display-pdf-from-https-in-ie-8-on-64-bit-vista
I see in WebResponse that Wicket is setting the Cache-Control and Pragma values
incorrectly as far as IE8 is concerned. This explains the behavior.
To prove, I changed the resource in wicket to have a cache duration of one
second and the resource downloads over SSL just fine. Not the worst workaround
but I was hoping this could be addressed.
