mod_xsendfile and large files

05 Feb 2013, 09:03

Hi,

I'm trying to setup mod_xsendfile for large files (over 2G) and I'm facing download problems (File not found).
No problem were encountered with smaller files (100M)
I'm running Windows 2008 R2 Standard 64 bits / IIS 7.5 / Helicon_Ape_0095_Free.msi. I just set "XSendFile On" within my .htaccess. The files (.avi) are in the correct path.
It seems I ran into a 32 bits limit. The Ape log is referring to a Int32 maximum ("Internal error - exception in xsendfile_module").
Is there any size limitations ?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards

I can confirm that IIS API used for mod_xsendfile really has limitation for 2Gb file size. We are investigation if it would be possible to somehow overcome this limitation.
Thank you for feedback!

Hi Pancho!

We have made some fixes to download big files via mod_xsendfiles.

Please try new build: http://www.helicontech.com/download/ape/Helicon_Ape_0097.msi
