Prompt to download .cfm files in safari

I am trying to run Coldfusion 8 in Leopard, and I have
followed all steps from other users online to get it running.
But when I go to
http://localhost/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm,
I am prompted to download index.cfm.class.
Anyone know why?

I also had this problem which I solved by recompiling the
connector as detailed here:
http://blog.daemon.com.au/go/blog-post/how-to-install-coldfusion-8-on-leopard-osx
Edit - Another tip is not to let the installer setup running
CF at boot-time as this won't work - rather use a little utility
called Lingon which handles this beautifully.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):

In the Finder, select

From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:

            } else {
                response.setContentType(TEXT_CSV);

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Unable to download any files in safari despite having 18.5 GB available

Help! When I try and download any file from Safari I get the following message;
"Safari could not download the file "File name" because there is not enough free disk space"
with the following advice,
"Try deleting documents or downloading to another disk."
It does not allow me to download to another disk. Surely there is something amiss? Please help...

You normally need admin rights to be able to install/copy things into the Applications folder - I'm guessing the current user you are using isn't an admin?
Most people set a specific downloads folder somewhere on their drive to keep all the 'clutter' together, but each to their own

I cant download any file from safari on my ipad 3 WI-FI it gives me safari can't download this file

I can't download any file from safari on my ipad 3 why
It gives me : safari cant download this file

Hi Morning mist,
If the app did not specifically indicate that it was available from the iTunes & App Stores then, as Diavonex indicated, you cannot download it.
The App Store has 2 free Heartmath apps for the iPad - Inner Balance, and HeartQuotes HD. You can click on your App Store icon and find them under Heartmath in the Categories search bar.
Not sure what you might have paid for?
Cheers,

I am trying to download a file from Safari. It doesn't work.

I am trying to download a file from Safari. It doesn't work. It always comes up with a notification saying, 'Safari could not download this file'. Why does it do that? More importantly, what should I do? how do I download it?
Thanks to the users who reply to this. It will help me a lot.

What type of file is it?
If safari can't natively open the file, or there is no App installed thatr can, it won't download.

Cannot open any On Demand reports, prompted to download a file "saw.dll"

Hello,
When I try and open any Siebel On Demand reports I am prompted to download the file Saw.dll. The same problem occurs on FireFox and IE, I have also opened reports on other On Demand environments with no issues at all.
It seems environment related, but no-one else gets the same problem on that environment! Anyone come across anything similar?
Thanks

Hey,
Even I use to face the same problem. Please do the following quick checks
-Make sure Analytics site is part of trusted sites
-Go to Options-Advanced-HTTP 1.1 settings, make sure both are checked.
This should solve the problem.

When downloading a file from Safari, it goes to downloads and you can't re-name the file before it is saved

I am new to MAC and have trouble when downloading files from Safari that I want to save to a particular folder with a new name. Can you do that without first saving to downloads, then moving the file to the documents stack, then changing the name?

Although the right-click contect menu has "Download linked file as" and you would think that would allow you to rename the file as it is downloaded, it always gives me a useless html file. Maybe I am misunderstanding what that menu item actually does. I long ago gave up on renaming files during download. So I'm as curious as you about whether it can be done.

PDF PROBLEMS! Not able to download PDF files into Safari anymore?!?

I was always able to download PDF files into Adobe Reader from the internet. I can't download them anymore...My MacBook keeps trying to load and reload the page, but never does it. I downloaded the most recent Adobe Reader 9, but this did not fix the problem. I can open PDF files I have saved, but can' t download them in Safari. Any ideas? Thanks-

Hi Jes,
I get an error message saying
"The page cannot be found"
infact when i hover the mouse over the link i am able to see the correct path and the correct correct values as follows
schema.procedure?V=04&C=001
but when i click on it, i get the error as above.
i am not sure whether it is any permissions issue in linux. or is the procedure not getting executed properly at all.
but iam able to read those pdfs and insert them into an oracle table.
but just not able to download them back again.
but exactly the same code and same tables etc work in windows.
Thanks,
Philip.

Problem downloading pdf file in Safari

My website has a link which downloads a pdf file, which opens in a new browser window. In OS X, this works properly using the latest Safari update (4.0.5), as well as in Firefox and several other browsers (the file opens in Preview). I also run Windows XP using Boot Camp. I updated Safari to 4.0.5 in Windows, and also installed the latest version of Adobe Reader. But when I link to the pdf file in Windows using Safari, the program freezes. Both Firefox and Internet Explorer download the pdf file properly in Windows (the file opens in Adobe Reader).
I'm pretty sure that earlier Windows Safari versions correctly downloaded pdf files. Could this be a problem with Safari 4.0.5? Is there plugin in the new Safari that I'm missing, or something that needs to be set in either Safari or Adobe Reader?

I went through the recommended uninstall/reinstall procedure, but unfortunately it didn't fix the problem. When I first ran the new Safari install and clicked on the link to download the pdf, it opened a new window with a message that it couldn't find the server on which the pdf file is located (but of course it's on the same server as the parent page). After churning (hourglass cursor) for a couple of minutes, the new page (now running Adobe Reader, I think) displayed a small cube with question marks (missing file). On subsequent tries, Windows shut down Safari as "not responding".
I suspect that the problem is with Adobe Reader 9.3.1 and its interaction with Safari. (The other browsers continue to download the pdf properly.) I checked the Adobe site but didn't see an obvious way to install an earlier version of Reader, but willl investigate this further.
Many thanks for your help. (I've been forced to learn more about Windows than I really wanted to know.)

Downloading pdf files in Safari

Lately I'm having trouble downloading pdf files that are open in the Safari window. I'm using the latest versions of Safari Adobe Reader on an IMac OSX 10.6.8. I used to download them simply with "command s", now it says "the document ... cannot be exported".
thanks for any help,

Sorry, no, this did not help. I cannot recommend doing this. As a result, pdfs are no longer displayed at all in Safari!!
I had found a different solution, though, in the meantime. In the dark grey toolbar that appears at the bottom of a pdf window in Safari once you mouse over the spot, there is this adobe symbol which looks like a windmill. if you click on it, the adobe reader toolbars appear at the top of the browser window. if you click THAT save button there, it works just fine.

I can't download ANY file with Safari 5.1

Hello, I need hel please.
The problem I have is the following:
Safari 5.1 can't download ANY file. I have a Macbook pro running on 10.7.2
I think the problem started after upgrading to Lion. The only way I manage to download files is "right clicking" the file and selecting the download button from there. I can't do this with all of the downloads because lots of internet downloads redirects users to another page which says, for example, "your download will start in a few seconds" and with the problem I have, it never starts. The page remains like it's loading but I leave it there for a while and download don't start.
I tried with Chrome and the problem is there as well.
Any help will be great,
Thanks

Forgive me in case this is obvious to you, but since you say you just upgraded to lion, it may apply.
When you download the only indication you get is a blue progress line in the small down arrow download icon on the top/right side of the Safari window, next to the Search box. Click on that and you'll see a list of recent downloads assuming it's working.
I assume you've used Finder to look in your Downloads folder for the files already.
