Cannot Download PDF With af:fileDownloadActionListener Component Inside Android App WebView (Doc ID 2678563.1)

Last updated on JULY 01, 2021

Applies to:

Oracle JDeveloper - Version 12.1.2.0.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

User uses an Android app with a WebView to access an ADF page with af:fileDownloadActionListener to download a PDF, but downloaded file cannot be opened by the PDF reader and may warn is a corrupted PDF.
Downloaded file actually is an HTML file the server returned with the .pdf extension, and the HTML page displays:

"This page uses JavaScript and requires a JavaScript enabled browser.Your browser is not JavaScript enabled."

This may have worked in ADF 11g, but it doesn't in 12c.
