Discussion & Troubleshooting / download of a zip file bigger than 3mb fails
« on: March 17, 2005, 03:10:50 PM »
Hello,
I wonder why I couldn't find this Problem in the forum. Anyway I should describe it first:
When I collect e.g. 10 images in the lightbox and download them as a zip file, everthings works fine.
But I collected 17 images with the overall size of 2.8MB and tried to download them.
What happens is that just nothing happens. I could reproduce this bug with other 4image picture galleries.
I guessed the fault is somewhere in the download.php or includes/zip.php, where the zip file is build.
When i tried to debug this I found the following PHP-Error:
So what I guess is that the zip file is stored in one variable in the php script, this means that it is stored in the memory.
Wouldn't it be better to write it bit by bit to the requesting browser, so that it is not necessary to store the whole zip file in the memory.
Has someone a solution for this?
Many greetings, Max
