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.

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've built a gridsome website, but when I try to use it offline (by directly loading index.html into my browser), it fails to load the files in the assets folder, and links to other pages fails
running in windows:
after installing gridsome, I did the following:
gridsome create sample
cd sample
gridsome build
then I went to file explorer and opened the sample/dist directory and double clicked on index.html (Chrome is my default browser, but IE behaves the same)
the result is a half-loaded webpage that is missing the style sheets, javascript, images, and links are broken.
For instance, the "about" link on the first page points to "D:/about" vs. ".\about.html".
Is there anyway to make gridsome work to create a truly off-line website?
A website needs a webserver. When you are running in dev mode Gridsome provides that for you, when you build out the site you need something to serve it to your browser.
I needed to install Coldfusion 8 on my local Windows 7 PC, to do some testing. I took the easy route and installed the Standalone server, which included a built in web server. I didn't really need a fully fledged web server, just needed to test.
So after some time of Coldfusion working fine. It started displaying the source code of the page. In other words, Coldfusion was not parsing the page. Merely displaying the source code.
I've worked out that the following line will make the page display source code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
Even if I remove this line from the source code, the source code is still displayed. So I have to make another .cfm file with all the code except the above line, for it to run.
My question is, how do I clear the Coldfusion Standalone Web Server's cache? I've tried the usual restarting of Coldfusion to no avail.
Update: I eventually used a workaround of just renaming the files ie: testing1.cfm, testing2.cfm. For anyone else getting this issue, just use a standalone web server like Apache.
Have you tried restarting ColdFusion?
Have you tried clearing the cache in your browser?
For what it is worth, I prefer to use a web server even when doing development. I have found that using the CF web server and having all my projects under the CF web root can lead to pathing issues in production.
Not sure if you have already fixed this issue but there is an option in the ColdFusion administrator under the Settings > Caching option. At the bottom is a button named Clear Template Cache Now. Clicking that button will empty (remove) any templates that ColdFusion has cached. The next request to that template will force ColdFusion to recompile it if it has been modified.
This is a bit of a long shot given how vague my problem is but I'm at my wit's end here.
Basically on my local machine, my website looks fine. However, once it's deployed to the live server, the CSS is not being applied in the same manner. Some of the overwrites that are happening on my local server are not being replicated on the remote server.
All the CSS files are loading for sure on the remote. Collectstatic command has also been ran.
Has anyone experienced such an issue before? Or does anyone have an guesses as to why this might be happening?
UPDATE
I know which style sheets are causing my problem, reset.css and text.css for those familiar with 960.gs. The thing is the overwrites are working in the right order locally but not on the remote.
It could be a lot of things, but I've had this happen to me before. It could be related to some virtual directories not being set up properly on your dev machine when compared to the production environment (causing some CSS to not load).
Have you used Firebug to see which CSS files are being loaded? You could use the Web Developer Toolbar in firefox to disable individual style sheets to see which is your culprit.
Are you sure there aren't any embedded styles on the remote server that you don't have locally?
Remember that there is a cascading order of priority for which CSS takes precedence in a browser. See: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_howto.asp (bottom of page "Multiple Styles Will Cascade into One").
Good luck.
clear cache as well as cookies of your browser and recheck it. sometimes if network is slow , page does not download properly. basically css has to take nothing from the server. It may differ from browser to browser.
By default, Intranet sites are displayed in compatibility view in Internet Explorer.

I am trying to load a google web toolkit application with django, but the gwt host page does not seem to work (just a blank screen) when I invoke it with render_to_response() from my django view. I have verified that a plain hello-world html file loads fine from the gwt war directory, so it's not a path issue. Also the host page renders if I manually open it in a browser. I am running my django app in development mode using manage.py runserver. Any ideas?
When you say you've tried it manually within the browser - is that over HTTP or file:///
Does sound like a path issue, TBH. Have a look in Safari or Firebug to see the HTTP activity when the host page loads. The 'nocache' JS file you include the in the host page loads the appropriate compiled JS for that user agent. Maybe it can't find JS.
