http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6641 Download of MS Office docs from protected areas fail with IE ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2002-02-27 10:03 ------- I can't download pdf,doc,xls ... file with IE through an HTTPS+BasicAuth connexion. IE----SSL+Basic Auth------>Apache+mod_jk------------ajp13-------->tomcat4.0.2 I got an error as described in http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx? scid=kb;EN-US;q196505. This is due to HTTP cache control headers returned by tomcat. When a page is downloaded with an authentication, the HTTP server set cache control headers (Pragma, Cache-Control, Expires) to avoid proxies to cache the page.In such case, this gives something like that : HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: application/pdf Content-Length: 111219 Date: Tue, 26 Feb 2002 16:20:32 GMT Pragma: No-cache Server: Apache Tomcat/4.0.2 (HTTP/1.1 Connector) Cache-Control: no-cache Last-Modified: Tue, 26 Feb 2002 16:13:27 GMT ETag: "111219-1014740007000" Expires: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT When the page is downloaded through an HTTPS connexions, those cache control headers are not more needed because the document is encrypted ! Through the mod_jk connector (even with JkExtractSSL directive), tomcat always set cache control headers when Authentication is done. I have done some tests with Apache. Cache control headers are not set when using SSL and Authentication and I have no problem with IE to download .pdf, .doc etc ... So, there might be something to correct in the Ajp13 connector...
