I have an oracle apex application, version 18.2 and in it I have many custom functionalities including ones for custom file saving and video and audio preview. Recently we have gotten word that some of the functionalities do not work properly and after further review have discovered that it is to do with the browser. Using Firefox everything works properly, but using Chrome or even Safari, some things don't work.
The problems we have is with downloading files and with previewing video and audio. The file downloading and preview is handled by blueimp jquery file upload and processing plugins and a node.js server on the backend because our files are stored outside the database.
The problems we are facing is that preview doesent work on chrome, it works just fine on firefox, but on chrome, the popup to play the file shows up but the file appears to be 0 seconds long and thus does not play.
Another problem we are facing is downloading the files, when we enabled https and got a certificate and all that, if I connect via ssh and access the site through localhost, everything works. But if I access the site through the domain or ip, and not through localhost, then left clicking the file link downloads an empty file, as in the file exists, but its 0KB. Right clicking and opening in a new tab or new window downloads the file properly. And this problem is again only in Chrome, and apparently Safari.
This problem is above me, I have tried again and again to understand what the hell is going on, but I am utterly lost. So any help would be great, thank you.

I have created a secure embedded report (using the new method released in 2019) as specified below:
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/easily-embed-secure-power-bi-reports-in-your-internal-portals-or-websites/
I created this in an html page using the supplied iframe.
It works fine on windows firefox and edge. It does not work in windows chrome.
It works fine on mac chrome. It does not work on mac safari.
It fails on windows chrome after opening a new tab and asking for the login details, this tab then closes and the power BI symbol in the embedded report just flashes like it is loading but it never finishes.
On Mac safari the login fails. It looks like it gets caught in a loop of some kind.
I just want it working on windows chrome really.
I have tried clearing my complete browser cache, cookies, rebooting serveral times and allowing pop-ups with no luck.
It does not make a difference if I select "remember me" or not at the time of login.
I have the latest version of chrome.
Does anyone know how to resolve this or if this is a know issue?
Here is the embedded report. You won't be able to access it but it may give you an idea of the issue:

I also can't log into the PBI community with this account so that may be related. The account works fine logging in to PBI Service or desktop. It is a PBI trial Pro account.
I had the same issue, i solved it by disabling the "Prevent Cross-Site Tracking" in Safari Settings. This worked for me and my clients. I hope it works for you too
I had the same issue in chrome. Solved it by enabling "Allow all cookies" in chrome settings.

Is there anything which block server videos on safari ??
Firstly, this is not an answer to the root cause, but it may help you nonetheless.
If you look at the console you will see that you get an error if you play one of the videos in your extract above directly - i.e. put the URL of your mp4 video into the navigation bar of the browser:
However, downloading the video directly from the desktop allows it playback without any error, implying that Safari and Quicktime has no problem with the format itself.
This is an issue that has been reported before and that I personally have not seen a convincing explanation of a root cause for. See some example discussion linked in this answer:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/32998689/334402
The issue seems to be particular to some servers, and/or possibly some networks.
To verify this, taking the same video file and serving it from a server using a very simple static node http server (https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server), again results in the video playing back without issue.
Similarly, if you load the same video into an AWS S3 bucket and server it from there it plays without issue on the same safari browser (just verified this).
So, the root issue appears to be some very specific interaction between the server and the browser - you should find the simple server example above will correctly serve the file, and you may find playing with the configuration of your own server will also help.
I have done the setup for coldfusion-61.When I try to hit the URL for a cfm page, a download window pops up asking if I want to save the file. This happens in the Internet Explorer. In Mozilla it just shows the code written in the cfm file. I looked up on the internet and what most people suggested was re installation but the issue persists . Any suggestions ?
As your using port 8500 I presume you are using the internal server and do bot gave iis installed?
Are you sure that you chose rhis option during installation?
Also have you checked the service is actually running.
I ran into this on CF10, was in the end an issue with the Application Pool. I had to recreate the pool and could then move forward with other issues.
I'm trying to use Google Visualization API to generate Pie charts. My implementation is working on all the browsers except IE 9.
Not sure if there is any fix for this. When I try to open the page in IE 9, it shows a popup to install the Google chrome frame. But this wasn't working even after installing the chrome frame.
I've even tried the Google code playground, the same problem in IE 9. So, I confirmed myself that it is something to do with the IE 9.
Has anyone got any idea?
I finally figured out that the issue is - Chrome framework plugin hasn't been enabled when I've installed i.e.; by default this plugin was not enabled.
We need to manually enable it (after the installation, when you restart the browser IE displays you a popup showing plugin is ready with two button Enable and Don't enable).
I'm giving you the screenshot of the plugins dialog (You can go to the below screen from Tools -> Manage add-ons)
After enabling, make sure you restart the browser and refresh the page which is using the Visualization framework.
Unfortunately, end user has to install this in order to get this work in IE 9 which is really a bad user experience.
This is currently a problem with a development environment that I'm running, which is Django's built in 'development server' (the one started with python manage.py runserver) running on my local machine. On my deployment machine which runs FCGI this is not a problem.
CSS files fail to download in Chrome but successfully download+render in Firefox. Both browsers get 200 OK responses from the server, but for whatever reason Chrome doesn't seem to be sent/receive the content of the files.
I can use either browser to navigate to the URL of the CSS file itself and view the document just fine.
It's probably best explained with screenshots...
In Chrome
Chrome Network Page
Everything up top looks like it downloads just fine. But note at the bottom Chrome reports "Failed to load resource" for all the CSS files.
Chrome CSS Headers
Everything looks OK in the CSS headers...
Chrome CSS Content
Except the content is empty...
In Firefox
Firefox CSS Headers
Everything looks good (note that the 'content-length' header is identical to Chrome)
Firefox CSS Content
And there's the content!
What gives? What could possibly be causing the content to fail to load?!
EDIT: I'm still pulling my hair out over this one. This only happens in Chrome. I've restarted/updated/cleared my cache a million times--I'm at a complete loss.
It's simple enough to avoid--just use a different browser to view the page--but why is it happening?!?!
Time to upgrade your chrome, or to move to stable channel, if you are using the distribution repository archives.
I once faced a similar issue and followed the same course.
If you have an ad blocker or tracker blocker chrome extension installed, such as Ghostry; it can block some legitimate files. I have run into this problem. To fix it I added an exception for the problem site.
