Server Side Caching of pdf files

64 Views

Hi all,

I've run into a rather odd problem that I can't find a way around. I've created some URL iViews to display some html files and some pdf files. I've adjusted the Load parameters for these iviews to the following:

Allow Client-Side caching: Yes

Cache Level: Shared

Cache Validity Period: 12 hrs

Fetch Mode: Server-Side

I've found that the html URL iViews work fine like this, but the pdf URL iViews do not. The pdf ones seem to just hang.

I've noticed that if I change the Fetch Mode to client-side for the pdf files, the iview then begins to work. However, I don't believe that this is the way that I want to configure my URL iviews. I believe that I want them all to be server-side cached.

I've followed the instructions on 'setting up system properties for proxy server' (System Administration -> System Configuration -> Service Configuration -> Applications -> com.sap.portal.ivs.httpservice -> Services -> Proxy). After making these configuration changes, I've stopped/restarted portal services. The problem still occurs.

Does anyone have any idea as to what may be causing this problem and how do I fix it?

Thanks!
