Your production Mongrel is generating an error (500 Internal Server Error).
Check your log/production.log where the error will be printed.

I have an application which uses send_file to send a ZIP file to the
client. This works nicely when it's run on our development OS-X
boxes, using mongrel from script/server, but on our production
server, using mongrel behind Apache 2.2. with mod_proxy_balancer, the
client gets 1 byte delivered :-(

If I use wget -S to the URL in order to see the full headers I see
this on production

HTTP request sent, awaiting response...

whereas on the development servers I see

Length: 3,698,448 (3.5M) [application/zip]

I rather suspect that the problem may be related to the  Content-
Type:  header which is correctly set on the development box, but yet
is set to */* for some reason on production.

The code which is called is this

send_file @tour.zip_files, :filename => "#
[EMAIL PROTECTED]", :type => 'application/zip'

where @tour.zip_files is a method which writes the ZIP file, and
returns a path to it. This is working on the production box, insofar
as it does write the ZIP files.

A smaller problem, though it will be an issue in production, is that
the filename saved was not the filename specified in the  Content-
Disposition  but rather the filename in the URL which is something
different.



Kindest regards,
