Changing "go_debug = 1" bypasses calling js_compress but it also affects other portions of the application software. I have tested this fix on both SuSE Liniux LEAP 42.3 and Ubuntu LINUX 3.28.1.

How rather odd and I wonder why? I suppose you could also effect the same "fix" without changing the code and changing "go_debug = 1" in config.php?

I solved this issue by avoiding the compression of the js scripts in 'includes/main.inc':

function js_compress($sJS)
{
return($sJS); /* This line added to bypass js compress */

........
.........

}

How is the file corrupted? Open the containing folder and look at the file sizes. Are they 0, truncated, same size as pdf_files? Permissions, network file system issues, see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cant-download-or-save-files.

Please try with a windows machine and the latest Firefox. Also post the URL for the right and wrong PDF paths.

I have tried both Chrome & Firefox. Looking at the demo version the popup link is to the pdf_files repository. However, on 2.4.6 I suspect the link is wrong. The report in the pdf_files repository is correct. If you set the browser to Download the file downloaded is not the report and cannot be opened with a pdf reader. If set to popup the browser responds with 'Error Failed to Load'

Try Firefox browser or any other non chrome browser and see if it displays correctly. Also try to do a "Save As" of the download file link and see if it comes in correctly.

Hi apmuthu,
Thanks for your prompt reply.

The issue is not the PDF viewer. The file generated in the browser designated Downloads repository is incomplete. The file in repository pdf_files is complete and can be read by a PDF viewer (evince, okular).

There is no LINUX version of SumatraPDF and SuSE have stopped support of Acrobat.

Thanks

Change settings in browser for PDF viewer to be native viewers or specific programs - Acrobat / SumatraPDF.
