FLV's not being served by web server (302 response) - iis-6

I have a web app. IIS 6. .NET 3.5.
I have 2 websites on the web server. One of which is already correctly serving FLVs. The newer one is not.
I have added the MIME type information to the HTTP Headers in the website properties ['.flv', 'video/x-flv'] (as FLV is not an extension IIS recognises by default).
When I goto the URL, Firefox goes black and displays "Waiting for video". It stays like this. I have checked the logs that IIS writes to, and I have found the GET request, and the HTTP status associated with it, which is 302. This is a "Moved Temporarily" status code. I don't understand why it would be throwing this. All other content on this site (currently consisting of webpages and images) is returned fine.
I have tried the same video in the older site, and just directing FF to the URL, it runs correctly.
Any help as to why I can't do this would be much appreciated, thank you.

IIS return 404 error but the files are exist

I have a website that implemented with .net core 2.1 and angular js.
I published this website on windows server that worked with IIS.
The problem is that, sometimes response of http requests for some files or request (the ajax request that called) is 404 error and sometimes it works correctly and I am sure that file is exists because if the user that faced with error, refresh the page, it will load correctly !
I attached a photos that compare same requests.
After many days I have this problem yet. I enabled IIS logs and attach one of xml log file here.

Mobile Edge For Android, 302 redirect issue with Service Worker and authentication cookie

I have a PWA site which is working fine on Firefox, Chrome and Edge on Windows, and all of those on Android, Edge (EdgeA).
The problem
This much I know from looking at my Azure server logs:
(1) The login POST is hits a Core 2.2 controller which does the authentication and returns 302 along with a standard Core 2.2 cookie set including the authentication token for the user.
(2) The EdgeAndroid browser receives that, and immediately GETs the location specified.... except this GET doesn't include the cookies from (1), so the Core 2.2 system responds with a 302 back to the login page.
It's a redirect loop.
-> EdgeA is eating my cookies!
I can run this perfectly on the above browsers, and the logs show Edge/Windows for example has the (1)(2) sequence exactly as you'd expect, with the cookie credentials in the second request.
The only thing different is Edge Android. I stripped out all the caching from my service worker for that browser and it's still broken - I think I may need to just not run the service worker for it at all.
... and my questions are:
Does anyone have a PWA which actually works in EdgeA?
Does anyone have any idea what I may have missed? Note it's just this one browser which is broken, hence it may be them not me.
In case it is them not me, is there a place I have not yet googled where I can report defects in this possibly minor-interest browser?
This sounds similar, although that's cross-domain, and my 302 is not cross domain.
I think this was caused by the Edge Android Browser interpreting the display:standalone directive and consequently opening a "stand alone" window, which does not carry over the cookies from the original browser.
The server logs show that the EdgeA client "drops the cookies" when handling a "login successful" 302 response from the standard Core 2.2 login stuff.
My work around is to serve a specific manifest.json to the EdgeA browser, so that it reads display:browser.
At the same time I fixed this MS released a new version of EdgeA, so I can't be 100% sure if my change fixed this or if they actually listened to my whining.

Getting mixed-content errors even though I’m only using https URLs

I'm having the SSL warning messages all over my website after switching to SSL for several assets:
Mixed Content: The page at 'https://example.com' was loaded over HTTPS,
but requested an insecure script 'http://example.com/script.js'. This
request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.
I checked the page source, every single script/css is requested over https.
I even checked the dynamically created html by using the code inspector.
I disabled Javascript in case a script was loading these assets dynamically.
None of these things showed a single http:// request. I'm out of ideas to try and find what is causing this. Any ideas or suggestions?
When seeing a mixed-content message about a http://example.com/script.js (non-https) URL that doesn’t actually appear anywhere in your sources, the basic strategy to follow is:
Replace the http in the URL with https and put that into the address bar in your browser: https://example.com/script.js
If your browser redirects from that https://example.com/script.js URL back to (non-https) http://example.com/script.js, then you’ve found the cause: example.com/script.js isn’t actually available from an https URL, and ends up getting served from a http URL even though your source is requesting the https URL.
My 2 cents regarding this issue.
I have a project hosted on one domain that works flawlessly.
I need to make it international so I am cloning the master branch to a new branch, making some necessary text changes and deploying new site (new domain) with code from the new branch.
Everything works fine, except 1 ajax call (api route) that gets blocked due to Mixed content.
First things first, I checked these 3 things:
I check in the Network tab in dev tools and it is actually loaded through https.
I open the file directly in browser and it is https.
I try to open it as http:// and it automatically redirects to https://
This is very strange because the 2 domains are both using Cloudflare and their backend setup is identical, the code is the same (only text changes for the new one) yet for the new setup there is console error for 1 specific api route, an all others (some 20+ ajax requests across the page) work just fine. They are even using the same function to make the Ajax request, so it is definitely not a configuration error.
After doing some investigation I found out the issue:
The call that was 'buggy' was ending in /. For example, all other calls were made to:
https://example.com/api/posts
https://example.com/api/users
And this particular one was making requests to
https://example.com/api/todos/
The slash at the end was making it fail with mixed content issue. I am not sure why this is causing issue and how it isn't an issue on the original site (since there the same ajax call works just fine), but it definitely fixed my issue.
If I figure out what caused the / to fail so miserably, I will post an update.

Google AppEngine API Explorer redirects and lists no URLs

I'm having an unending issue trying to use the AppEngine API explorer with the stupidly simple helloworld example.
When trying to navigate to the url to explore the API my Chrome browser redirects to HTTPS from the default HTTP and no API's are listed. I have gone through every possible fix I can find (Like this, and all of these) and none are working reliably.
What's the most infuriating is I have gotten the API listed TWICE but now no longer displays with any of the methods below.
The setup I had when it worked the first time:
Chrome launched with "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\Chrome.exe" --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://localhost:8080 (As per the tutorial)
The url being: (http://)apis-explorer.appspot.com/apis-explorer/?base=http://localhost:8080/_ah/api&root=http://localhost:8080/_ah/api#p/
The second time it worked was using also using the above URL but lasted only a second before being redirected to HTTPS and not listing anything.
Some specifics:
Windows 10 OS.
Every time the page loads I get the "The API you are exploring is hosted over HTTP, which can cause problems. Learn how to use Explorer with a local HTTP API." message, even the times the API displayed correctly.
Every time I now load any of the API Explorer URLs I get redirected to HTTPS, and nothing is listed. Also the URL is escaped (%3A instead of ':'). Not sure if it's important but the first time it worked the URL was HTTP and NOT escaped.
I have tried the shield in the search bar and enabling Load unsafe scripts ( from here).
Tried launching Chrome as usual and with the flags --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://localhost:8080 and/or --allow-running-insecure-content (from this answer).
Tried http://localhost:8080/_ah/api/explorer
Tried http://apis-explorer.appspot.com/apis-explorer/?base=http://localhost:8080/_ah/api#p/
http://localhost:8080/_ah/admin works correctly and shows the Admin console every time.
Since the API's being listed once I haven't touched the project code, but restarted the server, Chrome, and tried different URLs on more occasions than I care to count.
I also tried accessing the API URL directly as explained in this answer but cannot find the correct URL to access the helloworld /sayHi endpoint. Maybe someone can help me work out what I need to prefix it with as all of the variations I try give me a 404.
Any help would be a very very appreciated.

Heroku: Python Flask app - automatically redirecting from https to http

I'm writing an app for Facebook, which needs to be secure. The initial page, https://myapp.com, loads perfectly fine.
However when I click a link to https://myapp.com/link, Chrome complains that the app is trying to load from an insecure source. I get the following message in the console:
"[blocked] The page at 'https://www.facebook.com/page/app_###' was loaded over HTTPS, but ran insecure content from 'http://myapp.com/link/': this content should also be loaded over HTTPS."
Now the link is an absolute URL with the https prefix, yet apparently the page is trying to load from the http version.
I visited the domain itself and checked the Network tab in the Chrome console to see what was happening. The following happens:
The GET to https://myapp.com/link is a 301, moved permanently.
This then redirects to http://myapp.com/link
As far as I can tell, there is nothing in my python code to make this happen, so I suspect some feature of Heroku is causing this, but I haven't been able to find anyone else with this problem.
As a side note, I used Flask-SSLify to add a redirect back to the https version. This redirect works, but Chrome still blocks the page because it passes through the insecure version.
I feel so stupid for working this out five minutes after posting the question, but it is a little obscure.
It turns out the problem was that the page I was attempting to reach was "https://myapp.com/link/" with the trailing slash.
"https://myapp.com/link" redirects to "http://myapp.com/link/".
I don't know why the protocol isn't preserved by this redirect, it may be either Flask or Heroku, though I suspect it is Flask. Regardless it seems like a bug.
Hope this winds up helping somebody else.
