.docx File
Hi,
I'm able to open a word document with .docx extension in Cascade but not on the live site. It gives 401 error message.
Thank you,
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh,
401 errors on your web server generally mean that the area you are accessing requires some sort of authentication. Check out this page and let me know if the steps there help you to track this down.
Thanks

Hi Tim,
My mistake. The error is 404 (page cannot be found). I have attached screen shots. the error page stays for a second and than redirects to Yahoo error page. If I change the file name from .docx to .doc (System name) it works.
Thank you,
Rakesh

The file is there as a .doc file, I was able to download it.
When .docx files are uploaded they should have .docx as the the end of their system names.
Good file names would not have spaces; replace spaces with dashes.

Actually i changed it to .doc (from .docx) to see if it works. I have re-uploaded the file with dashes instead of spaces, like you suggested, but I'm still getting an error. Please go to this link (http://soka-test.soka.edu/administration/finance-and-administration/information-technology/Test1/default.aspx) and see if you can download the file.

Hi Rakesh,
A few questions for you:

I'm wondering at the server behavior difference between 404ing some times and trying to send an incomplete 404 page other times. Which web server are you running and does it have a mime type configuration for .docx?

Hi Tim & Jason,
Thank you for looking into this. The file is published. I have attached screen shots of publish message and web server file system. I also checked the MIME setting and added .docx (screen shot attached) but still getting error.

Rakesh,
Thanks for attaching that information. Everything looks good from the Cascade Server side of things since the file is physically on your web server. So, I'm with Jason now thinking this may still be some sort of MIME type issue.
Was that MIME type added recently? If so, have you restarted IIS so that those changes actually take effect? Also, I can only see part of the actual MIME type in the screen shot. Can you confirm that it looks something like this:

MIME type wasn't there before. I added it per Jason's suggestion and it's working now. Looks like i had to wait for the change to take effect. Thank you so much for the support.
