Well I've devised a simple workaround for this issue

Now I'm running an Apache/ISS combo. The ISS is targeted at the comic directory and using port 8080, it only needs to serve as a backup to load the images from the website comic directory. Since the main content of it is still swf based and these files are nice and small. Gotta love vector compression

Anyway, perhaps you can do the same for your files folder or simply create more ISS pages on different ports.

I know this is not a true fix, but its a nice workaround for the moment. Until someone comes along and set us up the bomb (sry couldn't resist)

Have either of you found out anything more?
Have you tried reinstalling apache? If so, any results?
Maybe we should report this to the developers on the apache site?
Though it seems rather suspicious that we're the only ones experiencing this problem

Hi,
you guys aren't alone, I'm having the exact same problem with apache-2.2.4 on XP-SP2..

Its definately apache as the image loads fine in gimp/firefox/paint etc..
its only when I embed it in a webpage that it gives me grief.

I'm taking the site home tonight to try it out on linux, see if it behaves the same and will post back with the results..

[x1um1n]

OK, i've tested this on gentoo linux (apache-2.0.59-r2) and the image loads perfectly..

and after updating apache to 2.2.4-r1..............................
.........
.......
.....still works..

this is a windoze apache or config issue thingy...

still, no worries, any decent wwwhost will be running linux..

I've created a new partition in the meanwhile (seemed like a good time to create a work platform and start fresh!) and so I installed apache again too. I'm not experiencing problems there. I suspect something is off in the apache config files. Too much messing about I guess. I'm still interested to hear it if anyone finds out....

There is four of us now, we can play cards!

Hi men, I'm facing this problem too. It happened not only one time with me. I had to re-install windows (xp) and It worked fine until windows downloaded and installed some updates. But I don't know what update cause this problem. And the problem stays even if you remove all updates.

[x1um1n]

hehe, thats even better, now we're saying its a Micro$haft issue..

ah, you gotta love em

Here is a link to something that might be causing this - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod...sendbuffersize

Check to see if you have a sendbuffersize setting in httpd.conf and what it is. If it is the default (0 or not present), then this would indicate that there is a TCP/IP buffer size being set by the operating system that is causing this.

That seems possible since pictures suddenly started working again on my webserver while I didn't change any settings. Is it possible to reproduce the error by setting SendBufferSize to a certain value? And what exactly does a TCP/IP buffer do?
