Hi all,
The web application which I am currently supporting incorporates reports
generating functionality using Java Reporting Component which worked fine on
WebSphere App server and also Apache 2.2 before turning on the mod security
configuration. The app used to generate reports in a PDF format on both IE
and Firefox browsers pretty well. Now that the mod security config is turned
on, reports could not be generated properly on any browser. I have these
issues:
On IE: I get the File Download dialog with the warning "The file you are
downloading cannot be opened by the default program. It is either corrupted
or has an incorrect file type." Instead, the report should open Adobe Report
automatically.
On Firefox: All weird characters show up on the browser - looks like
encoding issue.
When I tested the above issue directly on the App server, there is no
problem which led me to suspect that Apache 2.2 configuration is the CAUSE
for this ISSUE.
Please help ASAP!!!
ASAP is never a good word to use on a forum where contributors donate
their time to help. Specially not in UPPERCASE.
Maybe you should start by getting the following add-ons to your
browsers, and then carefully examine the HTTP headers which they are
receiving along with the problematic documents :
For IE : Fiddler2
For Firefox : HTTPFox of LiveHttpHeaders
If possible, compare these received headers with the ones you were
receiving before.
That will really allow someone here to help you efficiently.
The headers to focus on are probably
Content-type
Content-disposition
