Hi Vladmir,

I tried your suggestion. It did not work for me. I am using apche my
faces JSF bridge. Does it work for you form a JSF based porlet?

Below the the code snipt of processAction method of command link
action listener. Can you see if I am missing something?


============================

        FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
                String path =
facesContext.getExternalContext().getInitParameter("uploadDirectoryLocation");

                Map map = 
facesContext.getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap();
                String fileName = (String) map.get("fileName");
                System.out.println("File URI: " + path+fileName);
                
                File file = new File(path + fileName);
                long fileSize =file.length();
        
                //Set the HTTP headers for foce download the file
                HttpServletResponse response =
(HttpServletResponse)FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getResponse();
                response.setContentType("application/x-download");
                response.setHeader("content-disposition",
"attachment;name=\""+fileName+"\";filename=\""+fileName+"\"");
                response.setContentLength((int)fileSize);
==========================================================
