Zope PDF display problems
Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Hi all, I'm having a problem getting PDF files served by Zope to work within IE 5.5. When I create an ExternalFile or a Zope File object by uploading a pdf, I can view the resulting file through Netscape 4.7 and Phoenix. But when trying to use IE, it seems to never get the end of the stream and never renders the file. If I set Acrobat as a stand-alone for IE, rather than a plug-in, it works fine. I have seen mention of various Zope/PDF problems on the lists, but they say this issue has been fixed. Strangely enough, I only have this problem on my servers running on Linux, but my Solaris server doesn't have the problem. My setup for all environments is Zope 2.5.1 with Hotfixes, latest ExternalFile, with Apache 1.3.26 sitting in front. Most of my site's visitors will be using IE, so I need to get this working. Thank you, Rob Boyd
We had this problem -- it's in Image.py. It has to do with the way Zope handles HTTP-RANGE headers. There is a fix available on the collector: http://collector.zope.org/Zope/671 Hope that helps, Kevin Boyd, Robert, CTR, OSD-PA&E wrote:
