What is the expected behavior? PDF loads
What went wrong? PDF sometimes does not load
Possible reason - Range request Fails occasionally . It is my understanding that when you see "Provisional headers are shown" in the network tab that implies the the request was not sent
Steps to reproduce the problem:
- Load a pdf file and observe for range requests in dev tools
- Repeat, clear cache, etc. and sometimes it stalls out with the spinning progress wheel. Other times it does not. When it errors out, Chrome logs an error. Does not seem to happen w/IE 11 or Safari.
- Summary - it appears that the disk cache look up is failing and no request is being sent over the network to retrieve the missing data
