Troubleshooting
Problem
When serving binary content (e.g. "application/pdf", "application/octet-stream", MIME types, etc.) through the compound usage of CGI scripts and Perl through Web GUI CGI tools, it is possible to experience corruption of the file's contents.
Symptom
The contents of a binary file served through a CGI script tool will be unreadable to the end user, as the file will be missing around 8kb.
