    Resolved [RESOLVED] File download

    I have used the following code for several years and never had an issue down loading .docx file from our web site to the user.

    Code:
                        Dim fi As New IO.FileInfo(FileName)
                        'Resp is a HttpResponse from DwnLD.aspx.vb
                        Resp.Clear()
                        Resp.ClearHeaders()
                        Resp.ClearContent()
                        Resp.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" & IO.Path.GetFileName(FileName))
                        Resp.AppendHeader("Content-Length", fi.Length.ToString())
                        'hmmm....
                        '                   "application/octet-stream"
                        'for .docx files
                        '                   "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document"
                        ' Resp.ContentType = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessing*?ml.document"
                        Resp.ContentType = System.Web.MimeMapping.GetMimeMapping(FileName)
                        Resp.TransmitFile(FileName)
                        Resp.Flush()
    We recently updated the server and now users can't download the files. We get a file name and network error in the download files drop down. Don't have the error when running in the development environment.

    Windows server version - 24H2
    IIS Version - 10.0.26100.1

    Any help is appreciated. THX
