Thanks, Nick for the tips.  I will investigate.  And yes, this used to work.  
About  2 years ago, my team created a cloud infrastructure and used Guacamole 
to allow users to login to their VMs.  My fellow teammate was managing user 
support for Guacamole, and somewhere along the line it was upgraded and he 
reported the download no longer worked.  Don’t know when.  He has since left 
the team.  Now, I’m supporting it.  Don’t really know the history, just told to 
get it fixed.

Thanks again, but I did a find / -name "*nginx*" and didn't find anything.  I 
think it uses tomcat instead.  There is a /usr/local/tomcat in the container,

that resembles a max body property constraint.

If you're running in Docker then there's no Nginx in the Docker image, so 
that's not the issue.  You'd have to set up your own Nginx instance to front 
the guacamole-client container.

Your subject says "No longer works" - was this something that was working 
before - either in another version, or prior to some event?

It's possible the issue you're seeing could be related to this one:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-506

It deals with using HTTP vs. WebSockets - there seems to be an issue 
downloading the PDF file generated via "Printing" in Guacamole when using 
HTTP-only, but works fine with WebSockets enabled and functional.  I think the 
Docker image should use WebSockets, so this shouldn't be an issue, but might be 
worth investigating.

Any messages in the container logs (both guacamole-server and guacamole-client) 
around this time that might indicate the nature of the problem?
