Brandon Fuller commented on WICKET-5372:
----------------------------------------
Actually, I found it fairly difficult to override the default headers. They
are defined in WebResponse. And there is factory method in WebApplication for
using your own class, newWebResponse. I did that but got nowhere. Later I
learned that the responses actually get wrapped by a HeaderBufferingWebResponse
in createWebResponse and that class is a sub-class of WebResponse, proper. Not
the one I defined in the factory method in WebApplication. So I couldn't
define my own headers. My workaround was to set the cache duration to 1 second.
The cache is disabled for this resource by the JRResource class of wicketstuff.
You can see it on line 387:

> 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.
