Topic: Download files corrupt

Hi,

Has anybody else had a problem with corrupt downloads. I've set everything up right for my e-books and get the point where I can downloads the product - but it's always corrupt when I try to view it. I've tried straight pdf and zipped files of varying sizes but the result is alays the same - corrupt download file. It seems to just download about 10% of actual file then gives up and says complete.

If anybody can shed some light on this I'd be really grateful!!!! I'm tearing my hair out over this one.

Cheers.

Re: Download files corrupt

Ok problem solved after hours trawling through the US forum.

Firstly make sure your server supports the file type (mine seemingly has an issue with .zip files)

For my Linux Server the following set up worked (can't say it will for everyone)

Redirect OFF
Streaming ON

GZ Compression OFF

This last one proved to be the most important.

Hope this helps somebody else solve a problem.

Hey Dragon,

Thanks for this info.  Glad you solved it.

Just goes to show that you can have a great Zen set-up but if there are server issues sad ....

Well done sir
