Re: serving a zip file with Dancer2

Start by using a browser-side debugger to s-e-e what the HTML response including headers actually looks like when it finally arrives.

Could you recommend your favorite "browser-side debugger" and give us pointers for how you would use it in this case? The more specific, the more helpful.

I did.

And the headers were ok - they were identical to the psgi-version.

The problem (as I mentioned in another post) seems to be that while a plain psgi-app returns happily whatever you give it, Dancer seems to be a little cleverer which in this case gets in my way.

I need to explicitly decode the string as utf-8 to keep Dancer from encoding it again then it works.

I would be very interesting to learn if this is the proper way to do this though...
