Hi,

Has anyone done any testing using the new 'Add PDF Document' in V7.0.1 on the iPhone/Desktop with remote files.

I'm trying to load a .pdf file from an S3 bucket but I get an error message "Load Failed" on the iPhone and "Failed to Fetch" on the desktop!

This is the URL of the pdf https://p2vr.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaw ... Manual.pdf. It works fine on both iPhone and Desktop if I use the URL in the browser but not in the project.

Hi Tony,
It must be something to do with your S3 bucket as it works if I put your PDF on the support server.
I won't keep it there long but here is the link:

Code: Select all

Give it a test so you see it working and then let me know so I can remove it.

Hi Martin,

Update: I uploaded the .pdf file to Wix and it worked so definitely some configuration issues with AWS and Squarespace.

I've tried the link from your server and its fine however the AWS bucket version isn't working.

I tried uploading a smaller pdf to a static website I'm serving off AWS but that didn't work either as well as uploading to Squarespace. Here's a couple of links if you wouldn't mind trying.

AWS: https://expedition.photography/PDF/tony_redhead.pdf

Squarespace: https://tonyredhead.com/s/tony_redhead.pdf

I'll do a bit more investigating today.

cheers,

Tony

Hi Tony,
It's a CORS problem.

Code: Select all

Cross-origin redirection to https://static1.squarespace.com/static/4f3b434c8754e3c85b69cfb7/t/63c3145780a74c62c6c4be24/1673729118677/tony_redhead.pdf denied by Cross-Origin Resource Sharing policy: Origin http://localhost:8000 is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin. Status code: 302
You need to allow resource sharing.
For the support server we have a .htaccess file with:

Code: Select all

Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
