Download script not sending file size to header & corrupt files since using remote file server
Hey folks,
This download script has been working wonders in the past, but since I aquired a new server for my files as memory usage was too high for the site AND file download, when downloading a file it is:
'unknown file size' (esitimated time unknown) [WHILE DOWNLOADING]
and soemtimes the files are corrupt
This only happens with soem users, it works okay for others.
the download script is now on the remote server NOT the same server has the website, and it is called like this:
site.com/dl.php?f=file.rar
I have no idea why this is, Perhaps I could put the download script on the same server as the site? (I do not know how this would be done - the files on the file server are off the 'DOCUMENT_ROOT'
any help would be excellent, also If I could get some advice on using the download script on the same server as the site I'd be even more greatful!
Many thanks
Here is the code for dl.php:
