I am having a problem with pdf files on suse 9 with apache 2 running.
The files just never loads correctly. Sometimes I get blank pages others I get partial loads then an error message from acrobat saying it was unable to read the document (109) This is on an internal network so I have a fast connection.
I have tested this with a 231k file. Works on RH 7.3 with apache 1.3
Some strange config option I need or what.

Ok after I figured out the mozilla handles this correctly I updated my Acrobat reader on my windows machine to 6 was ruuning 4. This gave me the error File does not begin with %PDF- After looking around I found that for some reason you need to edit /etc/mime.types Change the line application/pdf pdf to application/x-pdf pdf This allowed acrobat 4,5,6 to load the pdf files correctly. No reason was given as to why x-pdf works it just does. Doug
