Cannot get going viewing a remote PDF

Problem/Motivation

We are creating an educational tool for teachers designed to empower them to curate and display content from a wide spectrum of different sources that may well 'live' across multiple different site domains.

As part of that quest, we are trying to find the 'right' solution to allowing our content editors to 'point' to remote PDF files on fully qualified URLS and display those with some flexibility as provided by the (for example) the PDF β†’ module.

This module sounds like it might be a strong contender so we've been trying it out but have hit some early problems.

Here is the step-by-step.../

Step 1-Creating a new Viewer source

Step 2-Setting up the URL

That URL ^^^ is publicly available (for now at least) while testing the module.

Step 3-Failure of the import process

There is no further detail in the Database log :-(

Any advice gratefully received
