Cannot download files with IE through tomcat. SSL with no-cache problems?
On Apache Tomcat/5.0.28, I've got SLL installed, and whenever I try to
download a doc file I get:
Some files can harm your computer. If the file information below
looks suspicious, or you do not fully trust the source, do not open or
save this file
File name: xxxxx.doc
File type: Microsoft Word Document
From: yyyyyyy.ibm.com
Open Save Cancel More Info
I click Open and then the folloing file download dialog comes up:
Internet Explorer cannot download xxxx.doc from yyyyy.ibm.com
Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet Site. The requested
site is either unavailable or cannot be
found. Please try again later.
OK
Downloading works fine in FireFox.
Downloading works fine if I turn off SSL.
We have an apache server (full httpd server) inhouse where this type of
SSL download works fine too.
Is there a SSL no-cache setting I have to put in server.xml or something?
Thanks
...Don...

Hey! I had that problem too, and the fix is as sexy as any windows fix: Edit
the registry!
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings]
"BypassSSLNoCacheCheck"=dword:00000001
This tells IE that it is OK to use cached data that was delivered over SSL.
I know of no other way to set this value.

As posted by Tim Funk in reply to your original message, the details
regarding this problem are found here:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27122
Note that it is a problem with IE only, wherein IE can't handle no-cache
cache directives, and Tomcat only sets these headers when serving
content from a protected context. Also, if you're using other than form
authentication, you need to substitute the class name for your
authenticator in the <valve> configuration described below.

I found the solution! Posting here to save other people the problems I
had in finding this:
Put this in your server.xml (or conf/Catatlina/localhost/*.xml) file:
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.authenticator.FormAuthenticator"
disableProxyCaching="false" />
