Re: [PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing;downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes
Hi,
There is not a big speed difference between the two.
The only thing is that it was frustrating to find out the limitations
on readfile.
I used it before with large files and it was ok; only to find out now
that on 5.0.4 it doesn't work as it used to.
As php manual states readfile should be the way to spit a file out
the wire.
btw:
$fp = fopen('somefile');
fpassthru($fp);
is also stopping at 2.000.000 bytes, which definetely drives me
to think there is a bug somewhere.

Uh, never mind. I guess I should read the thread. You are downloading, not uploading. I can't think of anything that would put an exact limit on the download like that. -Rasmus Rasmus Lerdorf wrote: > Didn't really follow this thread, but it sounds to me like you have > >upload_max_filesize = 2M > > which also happens to be the default uploaded filesize limit. > > -Rasmus > > Catalin Trifu wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> It can't be a memory limit problem.

Re: [PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes
Didn't really follow this thread, but it sounds to me like you have upload_max_filesize = 2M which also happens to be the default uploaded filesize limit. -Rasmus Catalin Trifu wrote: > Hi, > >It can't be a memory limit problem.

Re: [PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes
Check out the readfile manual page. Someone made a user-contributed
comment about that.
As it happens they came up with pretty much the same solution as I did.

Re: [PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes
Hi,
It can't be a memory limit problem. The server ha 2GB memory,
and in PHP each script can consume up to 64MB. On php4, apache 1.3 and
same configs readfile works without fread tricks.

Hi,
I installed php5 using the configue below. I tried with apache2 as well
and same things.
'./configure' '--prefix=/usr/local/php5'
'--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--disable-cgi'
'--with-config-file-path=/etc/php5' '--with-dom' '--with-gd'
'--enable-sockets' '--enable-exif'
'--with-freetype2' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr/include/freetype2'
'--enable-gd-native-ttf'
'--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--with-curl' '--with-curlwrappers' '--enable-ftp'
'--with-mysql=/usr'
'--with-xsl' '--with-libxml-dir=/usr'
I have a script which generates a temporary catalog file, which is
generated correctly having
4.7MB on disk.
Then I push up the wire with readfile($filname):
header("Content-Type: text/csv");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=somfilename.csv");
header("Content-Length: ". filesize($file));
readfile($file);
I also tried with fopen.
If I try to download the file directly from apache it works, all 4.7MB
are received.
As expected the browser starts the download and reports it is expecting a
file of 4.7MB.
However, the download stops at 2.000.000 bytes no matter what browser I
use (normally i use
Firefox on Linux), no matter if php runs on apache2 or apache1.3
Is there some php config option I missed ?
Could this be from curlwrappers ?
Where could this come from ?
Thanks,
Catalin

Re: [PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes
It's probably something to do with maximum memory, or something like
that, but taking into account that your method is stretching the
resources, fopen/fread may be a better solution.
I'd be curious to see the benchmarked differences - but couldn't be
bothered at this minute doing the benchmarking atm.

Re: [PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes
Hi,
Tried it and it works indeed, but it's quite annoying to make such tricks
and is not the best solution either; fopen and fread are "expensive".
I can't say if it's a bug in PHP or some config option.

Re: [PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes
I've never came across that problem, but try this
function output_file($filename){
$fp = fopen($filename, "r");
while(!feof($fp)){
echo fread($fp, 1024000);
}
}

[PHP] [? BUG ?] weird thing; downloading from a php script stops at exactly 2.000.000 bytes
Hi,
I installed php5 using the configue below. I tried with apache2 as well and
same things.
'./configure' '--prefix=/usr/local/php5'
'--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--disable-cgi'
'--with-config-file-path=/etc/php5' '--with-dom' '--with-gd' '--enable-sockets'
'--enable-exif'
'--with-freetype2' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr/include/freetype2'
'--enable-gd-native-ttf'
'--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--with-curl' '--with-curlwrappers' '--enable-ftp'
'--with-mysql=/usr'
'--with-xsl' '--with-libxml-dir=/usr'
I have a script which generates a temporary catalog file, which is generated
correctly having
4.7MB on disk.
Then I push up the wire with readfile($filname):
header("Content-Type: text/csv");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=somfilename.csv");
header("Content-Length: ". filesize($file));
readfile($file);
I also tried with fopen.
If I try to download the file directly from apache it works, all 4.7MB are
received.
As expected the browser starts the download and reports it is expecting a
file of 4.7MB.
However, the download stops at 2.000.000 bytes no matter what browser I use
(normally i use
Firefox on Linux), no matter if php runs on apache2 or apache1.3
Is there some php config option I missed ?
Could this be from curlwrappers ?
Where could this come from ?
