Hello,
We're using IIS6 and have just discovered that when a client does a GET on a pdf file, some of them just seem to hang the browser window. However, some pdf files works just fine. Here's what I know:
1) We're using IIS6
2) When we use IIS7, then it seems to work fine.
3) It doesn't seem to be a matter of pdf size because some smaller files have the issue and some bigger ones don't.
4) It's not a browser issue because it happens in Chrome/FF/IE.
5) I *think* even though the browser is hanging, the file is logged in the IIS log file.
6) The answer is not "upgrade to IIS7/8"... we're doing that later :-)
This is a production issue.. so, if you have any input, please speak up!
Your help is GREATLY apreciated.
Steve
