We were running a large production pipeline, and intentionally did not upgrade Galaxy for over a year.

Instead of getting the data file, Galaxy returns a HTML file (which seems to be the index page of Galaxy itself). I did a couple tests, and realized that this behavior changes depending on the client using the "DATA_URL". It works in a browser, but fails in other cases:
