Weird problem when downloading from 4images
« on: March 10, 2006, 02:31:45 AM »
This is a strange problem which i've noticed just now.

I download a file (hosted locally) be it small or large and while that file is downloading I can't browse other pages. As soon as I stop the download that page loads up. It's like my connection is being queued by 4images  :(

I tested this with both I.E and mozilla. Other softwares on my site such as IPB and VB work fine. i.e I can download the attachments and simultenously browse other pages. So I don't think this is a server problem as it is my server is highly optimized and poweful.

Did anyone have this problem or still have it? Any solutions for this?

Why don't you just upload your files via ftp to the relevant category folder? Then the upload won't have any impact on your browser.

Hi veno,

I tried it on 2 other computers and the same problem. So I can conclude its either due to the server setup or the 4images script. The mods I've added are Dynamic Title and Search engine friendly urls. I think the next thing u will suggest is to try a default 4images installation  :lol: So I am going to do that now and report back to u  :!:

I tried the default installation and it gives the same problem so it looks like a server problem. Can u suggest what could be causing this problem? I have only edited my httpd.conf and my.cnf file for optimisation.

hmmm...what if you try the default httpd.conf ? (doubt my.cnf is related to this issue)

Any additional non-standart modules for apache or php?

[EDIT]
I think I know what do you mean, I also noticed that when I open my pphlogger page which takes about 1-2 minutes to open, I can not use the same domain to browes other pages...I thought it was windows limitation of some kind...never tryed to investigate it...
But, your case is little different, because file data is being sent out to the browser, while in my case the browser waiting for server responce...

Sorry dont have an answer..

Mod security and Mod bandwidth installed but modbandwidth is not applied to the domain in question. Also have Eaccelerator php cache engine installed.

Then try disable mod security (which, by the way, people reported as a troublesome...)
