Thanks. Another user from the cocoon mailinglist suggested to look at the HTTP header response with a tool called wget. It seems that the missing of the content length attribute causes the problem.

The other ones don't work and the only difference is the content length attribute in the HTTP header from the second link. So that causes the problem. I don't have an idea how to fix this. All suggestions are appreciated!

Perhaps the I_USR (or whoever) when accessing directly has the privilege to access, but java.exe process does not? Have you checked the images & graphics FAQ items? Here's a link[1] but don't stop there. There are plenty of other questions there dealing with images & graphics. TIP: Try searching for 'graphic' and also 'image' if you don't find what you were looking for?
