Put file inside your webroot folder instead. Still link it as
/file/demo.pdf, but file folder should be inside webroot. This is why: your
/.htaccess file reads:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine on
   RewriteRule    ^$ app/webroot/    [L]
   RewriteRule    (.*) app/webroot/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

This means that everything is sent as app/webroot. You could modify the
above htaccess to add handlers so only it does that for non existing
files/directories (NOT recommended), or just move files folder inside
webroot.

Para: Cake PHP
Asunto: file upload

however, if I create a link such as http://localhost/mysite/file/demo.pdf
cake takes over the control and display a page with error:
You are seeing this error because controller FilesController  could
not be found.
