Hello, I know. The problem is a failed connection attempt when the get request has a .z or .gz extension. Each request is going to the same published web server. A direct connection to the published web server will allow you to retrieve the file. This appears to be a interaction between the ISA server and the published web server. That being said here are the results that you requested Original Client IP Client Agent Authenticated Client Service Server Name Referring Server Destination Host Name Transport MIME Type Object Source Source Proxy Destination Proxy Bidirectional Client Host Name Filter Information Network Interface Raw IP Header Raw Payload Source Port Processing Time Bytes Sent Bytes Received Result Code HTTP Status Code Cache Information Error Information Log Record Type Log Time Destination IP Destination Port Protocol Action Rule Client IP Client Username Source Network Destination Network HTTP Method URL 0.0.0.0 Mozilla/5.0 (X11;

In addition the web browser displays the following error. Technical Information (for support personnel) * Error Code: 500 Internal Server Error. The request is not supported. (50) I can browse the parent directory just fine. This error only occurs when I attempt to download a file. The file does have a double extension in this case: myfile.tar.gz Thanks Bill ________________________________ From: William Holmes [mailto:wtholmes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, December 05, 2005 12:01 PM To: [ISAserver.org Discussion List] Subject: [isalist] Can not dowload file via http http://www.ISAserver.org Hello, I am trying to download a file via http: and I receive the following message. Internet Explorer cannot download myfile.tar.gz from www.myserver.com <http://www.myserver.com/> Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet Site. The requested site is either unavailable of cannot be found. Please try again later. This file is on a published web server. I can download the file from the source server but not when it is published through ISA. I don't "believe" that I have any content restrictions setup for the publishing rule in question. I even we so far as to allow windows executables to download. What might cause this behavior in ISA 2004. Is there a global configuration that I am missing that would block files like this?
