Hi,
When I say the IIS log doesn't have any information on the problem I am
referring to the HTTPERR log. The page is just providing a link to the
file, and I am clicking on the link and then choosing to save the file
to my desktop. By the way, even though our web app is not configured
to support Firefox, I tried downloading the file through Firefox and it
worked. However, it downloaded really fast, like under 30 seconds, so
maybe that indicates it is a timeout issue and with Firefox I didn't
exceed the time limit.
Thanks,
Shawn
