The "ETag" header in the response is invalid, as well as
"If-Range" in the request. Quoting from the second link:

: Etag: 345a2dd5c8f22e9ffaf250151ea820df
: If-Range: 345a2dd5c8f22e9ffaf250151ea820df

In both cases entity tag should be in double quotes, see
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-14.19.

Fixing your backend to return correct ETag will make things work.
Alternatively, you can use Last-Modified date in the If-Range
request header instead.
