The image can not be rendered using send_file in IE

Question

I have used a controller action for dynamically rendering image files from a url with the following method:

send_file( image_url,  :disposition => 'inline',  :type => 'image/jpeg',  :x_sendfile => true )

Images are not showing up in IE:

Error:Unable to decode image at URL: http://filepathurl.com

Any help appreciated thanks

I had the same error message when I tried to open images from localhost. I resolved it by adding localhost to Trusted sites and setting security level Low for it (when "Unsigned ActiveX controls will not be downloaded" disapears from level description)

This approach sounds not reasonable to end users. Is there any other alternative? – canoe Aug 12 '16 at 10:58
