We are upgrading from CF8 to CF 9.01 and have an issue using SSL and CFDocument.  Creating the PDF in Firefox works in IE we get a blank page.

Thanx

    Has there been any further information about this?  I was able to replicate a blank PDF screen with Adobe Acrobat X and IE 7.  Now I'm wondering if the SSL settings in IIS might also be a factor?  I've reported this to Adobe but since they cannot replicate it, they have no action.  I was at the last couple of days of my Acrobat X demo window when it prompted me for 'Updates to Install'.  I did so and then the CFdocument tag worked again!

    Which version of IE you are using there?.

    Also, just try running your page after clearing your cookies/history and see if that works in your case.

    IE 7.05 and Firefox 3.6.7.

    Clearing all did not help.

    Thanx

    If the PDF is visible in FireFox, but not IE this sounds like an IE and/or PDF reader issue.  I have seen this on occasion with Adobe Reader plus IE, and not just for files created with CFDOCUMENT.  You might try an alternate browser and/or PDF reader.
