CORS error for large files

Question

While smaller files load in order, sizes over 200 MB give the following CORS error:

XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://www.filepicker.io/api/store/S3?key=Ad9Izd38AQzaNycUe6r4Qz&filename=…t_1Gb.fastq.gz&path=uploads/331/test_1Gb.fastq.gz&_cacheBust=1368071391844. Origin http://127.0.0.1 is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin. 

I have installed the IAM rule set specified in the filepicker documentation.

Answer 1

You are not doing anything wrong - rather, the browser is shutting down because the Ink timeout prevention does not work properly. As a short-term solution, try using Chrome. In the medium term, we are working on a fix.
