Yes, it can be done with a simple . See earlier message in this

FYI, I wound up writing a filter that lets me define paths that WILL 
NOT have the cache headers set, all others they are set for (because 
all but three paths in my app needed the headers set, the 3 were where 
PDFs get generated).  I use this in place of the Struts setting.  This 
filter will appear in my Sourceforge JavaWebParts project, in case 
anyone else might be interested.


Keep in mind, this is not just a problem with pdf files. It will happen 
when IE uses SSL to download *any* file that is not being rendered in

I realize this is the Tomcat list, but I suspect many people here use 
Struts in developing their apps... I think it is worth noting that 
Struts provides a "nocache" switch for the Request Processor that does 
the same thing (setting the no cache headers).   I found this out the 
hard way about two weeks ago when I ran into this very problem, but it 
turned out to be caused by this Struts option as I was running under 
Websphere.  The point being that even if you can disable the option in 
Tomcat (and I'm not sure you can?), if you are using Struts you still 
could experience the same issue if you aren't aware the the headers 
could be set in two places.

instead of beginning the download it suddenly throws up a window that

"the HTTP spec is clear that the no-cache behavior applies to HTTP

Are you really sure ?

I have always understood the HTTP 1.1, "Cache-Control no-cache" 
response header to be able to control both intermediaries and user 
agent caching activities.


The specification does not talk in terms of user agent caches and 
intermediary caches it only talks in terms of caching operations (for 
the large part) with a few additional directives to target 
shared-public and/or private cache behaviour.


Yes, my comment was imprecise. I should have said that the HTTP spec is 
clear that the no-cache behavior does not apply to user agents in the 
way that it is implemented in IE. Having said that, reference your two 
statements about re-use:




As there is no differenciation between shared-public and private 
caches when it comes to the "no-cache" directive, all caches must 
revalidate the request before subsequent reuse...  The important point 
of "no-cache" is your HTTP client must ask the server before you 
re-use your cached object, its upto the server to then say "No!  Here 
use this instead".


This is precisely the issue with IE. The failure to make the resource 
available to the user does not occur on a request for re-use. I agree 
that the spec can be read to indicate that a no-cache directive should 
mean that the user agent serves the resource once and then requests 
re-validation from the origin server for any subsequent requests for the 
same resource.


But that's not what causes the subject error condition. The user 
requests a resource, and IE says essentially the following:


"Because of the way I've been implemented, I have to store this resource 
temporarily in order to show it to the user. Now that means I have to 
cache it... Oh, I just noticed, this resource has a no-cache directive 
in the header. I can't store this in cache... [forgetting the actions 
just taken] Hey, where's that resource I just copied into cache? I don't 
see it. The web site must be unreachable. That's what I'll tell the user."


The point is that IE is not providing the resource to the user *the 
first time* because there is a no-cache directive associated with it. 
IMO there is noting in the HTTP spec that even hints that this is how 
the no-cache directive is to be used. If IE needs to temporarily store

when it comes to the "no-cache" directive, all caches must revalidate

an allowed type of request to the server, but since most non-static 
Tomcat/Perl/CGI/WhateverTechnology do not handle If-Modified-Since 
request directives anyway.  A new page is generated and a 200 response 
given, the net effect is no observable caching effect.  The important 
point of "no-cache" is your HTTP client must ask the server before you 
re-use your cached object, its upto the server to then say "No!  Here 
use this instead".


This does not help you with your IE problem thats just bad handling of 
the response.

Re: IE-Page not found problem

2005-06-06 Thread Mark Leone
If users are having this problem only when the server is serving content 
from a protected context in Tomcat, then it is highly likely that you 
have run into this.


http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27122

It's something in IE that most people would call a bug, but MS has 
chosen to call a feature. The problem occurs when Tomcat appends cache 
control headers (i.e. "cache-control:no-cache" and "pragma:no-cache") 
that indicate no caching is allowed by HTTP intermediaries. However, IE 
interprets these headers to mean that temporary storage in the client is 
also forbidden. So IE attempts to write the file to temporary storage as 
it does for all file downloads, and cancels the operation when it 
encounters the cache control headers. Then the app or file system 
(depending on whether you're running or saving the file) tries to find 
the file, doesn't find it, and cleverly reports that the site is 
unreachable.


To fix it, you simply have to configure Tomcat to not set the cache 
control headers when serving content from a protected context. Create a 
valve as follows, and put it in the appropriate  element. Make 
sure to substitute the class for whatever type of authentication you're 
using.




It's a silly problem. I ran in to it a while back, and it really 
mystified me until I found the bug write-up. Tomcat is doing the right 
thing, but MS has declared that IE is working "as designed" in this.

Hi,

IMHO the best solution is to run tcpdump (or ethereel) on the server, 
and log the IE users
traffic (and try to limit it to only 1 user as you seem to indicate that 
you can easily reproduce
the problem). That will show you exactly what is going on. Anything else 
is just speculation.

Sorry for not including the smiley face but, dude, you're informing of a 
problem that exists within a browser that is used by the vast majority 
of web users and for some reason refused to test with it. "Works on my 
box" is not a valid excuse.


Here's a link to a html validator, http://validator.w3.org/

Here's a link that explains a lot of the known issues,

Re: IE-Page not found problem

Moving on to a more helpful answer...

Have you tried using something like HTTPWatch to see what's going on?  IE
seems to display that page generically for a host of different problems,
and viewing the underlying HTTP transaction might narrow things down a
bit.

Also, you could ask your users to turn off the "friendly messages"
option... I'm not certain, but I believe they will get you slightly more
helpful (to you) messages with that option turned off.  It's under
Tools...Internet Options... Advanced... Show Friendly HTTP Error Messages.
