Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

When that option is turned on the output is being buffered in memory
causing the memory problem you are seeing.

Yes, is set to 1. And indeed if i set it to 0 it works. But i am not
sure if i can set it to 0 :(

Btw: from my observations if i put memory limit 200M and try to
download a 150M file, judging from the delayed response, seems that the
php engine tries to buffer all content, which is abnormal. Session
initialisation should have to affect headers and not content.

Thanks,

Do you have session.use_trans_sid  enabled?

Description:
------------
I am testing the following code that pushes a file to the browser 
(Linux + Apache 1.3 + PHP 4.3.10 but tested also under several other
configs)

!!!!!!
Try it with a BIG test1.zip (e.g. 100M in size)

Try it with wget http://server/test.php or a browser but the result is
more accurate when using wget since in browsers could work if you
already had a succesfull download of a smaller file.
!!!!!!

What i discovered is that if i keep the 2 session initialisation
functions
the script will work ONLY if the allocated memory in php.ini is greater
than the size
of the tested file. If i remove the session functions the script works
fine
even if the test1.zip file is very big (hundreds of Megs)

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
session_save_path('/tmp');
session_start();
$sFileName = 'test1.zip';
$sFileDir = '/var/www/html/';
header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment;filename=\"" . $sFileName .
"\"");
header("Content-Length: " . filesize($sFileDir . $sFileName));
header('Pragma: cache');
header('Cache-Control: public, must-revalidate, max-age=0');
header('Connection: close');
header('Expires: ' . date('r', time()+60*60));
header('Last-Modified: ' . date('r', time()));
$oFp = fopen($sFileDir . $sFileName, "rb");
$iReadBufferSize = 512;
while (!feof($oFp)) {
        echo fread ($oFp, $iReadBufferSize);
}
fclose ($oFp);
exit;
?>

Expected result:
----------------
The file should dowload via a browser or via wget

Actual result:
--------------
tail from apache error_log:

Allowed memory size of 12582912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate
10240 bytes)
