This is very likely a bug on the server. The server sends the file as text/plain or text/html. It works in Chrome because Chrome is known to ignore the content-type (which violates the RFC).
I can not reproduce the issue with my Seamonkey trunk build and Firefox32.
Maybe Oracle fixed their server already ?
