Downloads over 2MB

[infuseweb]

I have a file I've uploaded to the v3 downloads section. It is about 2.8 MB. When users go to download it, it stops downloading somewhere around 2 MB. I've checked the php.ini to ensure there's no 2 MB limits anywhere (though those would apply to uploads, which I don't have any problems with).

Anyone have any idea what would cause a 2MB or greater download to stop downloading?

The issue is with your php.ini file and the timeouts. Its timeing out before the download finishes.

Look for this entry and change the settings:

max_execution_time = 10000 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds

I changed mine to this (10000 Seconds) because I have some huge 500MB files in the download section. Although Im not entirely sure if this is safe.

Hope it helps, Mike

Thanks, Mike! That did the trick. Pretty sure I wouldn't have guessed that one on my own

You're welcome.

Go to the admin pannel > diagnostics > phpinfo

Verify that the max_execution_time has been well set.

That's dangerous. If a script get in a loop (sometimes there are strange bugs), the script will take all ressources until it timeouts.

And what is your memory_limit set as?

[karthik]

My memory_limit = 10M

I saw this in php.ini

Increase your memory_limit to around 50M and check if that fixes the issue.
