Hi,

In our application hosted on GAE (Java), I am intermittently getting the ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED error, for a few static files (css, son, etc). The Network tab in the browser usually shows 0 Bytes for the file for which the decoding failed.

It is more predominant in HTTPS mode, and I do not find this error in the http mode. The Logging section of app engine console doesn't provide much information. It does log the requests for the static file accesses, but nothing more than that. The logging shows different numbers for each requests, and 0 bytes on a lot of requests.

Is there something that we are doing wrong with respect to static files + https?

hi,

we have exaclty the same problem. our application uses the page speed service and since november 27.th we had this problem once, today (november 30.th) again.

i had to flush the pagespeed service to repair.

what can be done? our application is offline if the pagespeed service does deliver files with zero length

thx

Hi,

We have disabled page speed, and flushed its caches (from the older google app engine console). Post that we do not have any issues with chrome or mozilla or another browsers.

Do you mean that you are dependent on Pagespeed and you need an alternative?

Thanks,
Vamsi
