I see you aren't using the Content-Length header, but one problem can be 
caused if the content-length is incorrect.  I'm speculating that the 
problem I've seen is caused when the source file is uploaded into the db 
using some MacOS9 browsers.  (I think it must insert an extra Carriage 
Return or Line Feed).  Anyway if you download one of these problem files, 
(save target as) you see the file length being one byte less than 
recorded during the upload.  If it's re-uploaded using a different 
browser, such as OS X Mozilla os XP IE, the problem disappears, and the 
length of the uploaded file is now one byte less.
