Well you won't be able to download anything anyway! You still haven't activated your account

killergorilla · 30 January 2007, 10:24

I've been having issues with the account.

I did a bit of testing last night (with the help of catflap) and unfortunately the server keeps cancelling downloads before they are completed resulting in incomplete zip files

I've stopped uploading while I sort this as it's pointless otherwise.

Seems the files download correctly when I link to them directly but when I go through the download system on the site they suffer the above issues. Anyone else use Joomla and had similar issues?

vroom6sri · 01 February 2007, 23:42

How's it going, Killergorilla?

Zetr0 · 02 February 2007, 06:11

@KG

Yep! and yes LOL,

What download system are u using in Joomla? Remository, Docman?

If you make me one superadmin account, i can help you with this problem. Ive solved many similar things in Joomla (amiga.probers.info)..

killergorilla · 02 February 2007, 10:37

it's Docman.

Didn't have a chance to look at this again yet, my mate is coming down from uni this weekend so it's likely I won't sort this until sunday

Ultron · 02 February 2007, 11:00

Man... Docman... man, you gotta be kidding me doc...

Looks like Docman hasn't been updated in almost a year too.

killergorilla · 02 February 2007, 11:17

Well please suggest something else which offers the same level of control and I'll use that instead

Prober · 02 February 2007, 11:40

The same level of control has only Remository. Is that problem with small and large files too?

Please, make a screenshot of your phpinfo (in administration system/System Info/PHP Info). Can be a problem on server side.

killergorilla · 02 February 2007, 11:49

I can download files with no probs without going through Joomla so I feel it's gotta be a php issue somewhere

I tried Remository but it doesn't offer the same level of control over users access rights, docman has this down to a T. (Even if it is awkward to setup

)

Give me a bit and I'll post phpinfo

The problem is only large files, it seems as though the php might have a set timeout or something.

Prober · 02 February 2007, 11:56

Try this component Leech. I use it ony my portal - demo. Its very simple, without statistics, without text.. But working 100%.

Docman and Remository are scripts.. Check your phpinfo for file, size and time limits... For more advice i need to see a phpinfo ;( Safe mode is off?

Prober · 02 February 2007, 12:07

Similiar problem: http://forum.mamboserver.com/showthread.php?t=33521

killergorilla · 02 February 2007, 12:53

Any parts of phpinfo in particular?

EDIT: safe mode is off yeah

EDIT: Yep, it is indeed using IIS so that could be the issue. How would I go about fixing it?

Prober · 02 February 2007, 13:31

From Docman forum:

It starts downloading as usual. When it gets to 8.3Mb it comes up with download complete. I have tried it with 4 files ranging from 10Mb to 40Mb - it stalls at exactly the same point on all of them. Looks to me like there is a limit being set somewhere. I'm running on Windows Server 2003 with IIS 6.0.

Finally found the solution to this

There is a setting hidden within the registry fucntion for IIS6 for cgi timeout - the default value is 300 (seconds). This parameter can only be accessed via the 'metabase explorer' tool (comes as part of the IIS6 resource toolkit) - even my IIS expert wasn't aware of it.

I also had to change the max_execution_time parameter within php.ini to '= 0' (which effectively disables it).

Of course, on IIS servers, cgi.force_redirect needs to be set to '= 0'.

Hope this helps someone.

Hello...was having the same problem and mi Service provider has applied he solution above, and everithing is ok now...so for IIS, just look a this post.

killergorilla · 02 February 2007, 16:08

wow. Thanks man! Nice of you to join the forum just to help me!

@Zetro - SORT IT OUT NOW (he has the power)

Prober · 02 February 2007, 19:15

You are welcome

How it will be with access rights, will be there any checks agains those legal fighters like Amikit (or glwxxx, thats same person), which stands behind enclosure of deadwood domain?

killergorilla · 02 February 2007, 19:18

I don't plan on restricting access to anyone, after all we all make mistakes

But I do plan on giving priveleged access rights to others....

Zetr0 · 06 February 2007, 00:37

@KG
