PDF viewer on public links doesn't work

[schiessle]

Tested with c.nc.c (Nextcloud 21 beta 6)

When I share a PDF as public link it doesn't open the PDF reader. For large files I only see the download button:

For smaller PDFs I get a preview but only from the first page.

I would expect that the PDF Viewer opens and I can read the whole document in the browser

It works when you are logged in.
But, it doesn't work for public shares. Even on password protected shares

On my side Latest NC 20.0.7
Ubuntu 20.04.2

The only workaround is to disable PDF Viewer

Same here
NC 20.0.07 on Ubuntu 20.04 (non docker)
Firefox on Ubuntu 20.04

No Problem when you are logged in.
Test can be done, by sharing a folder, and opening that link in a Private Browsing session.

Issue can be closed.
Was fixed in 20.0.8
