Could it be that you have SELinux enabled
and it is messing with you? ~Jet From: John LaCour
[mailto:johnlacour@xxxxxxxxx] I’d
like to make some very large files available for HTTP download from my Apache
v2.2.3 server on RHEL5, but it’s not working. I
get the following error message: [error]
[client 10.1.1.1] (13)Permission denied: access to /Very_Large_File.rar denied It
would appear to be a file permission problem, but the directory paths to the
document root are all 755 or better: / /var /var/www/ /var/www/html and
the permissions on the file itself I’ve set to 777 for testing purposes. The
same client can download small .rar files from the same directory with the same
file permissions. The only difference that I can discern is that
the file is smaller in size. I’ve
further tested access to the file with “sudo –u apache cat
Very_Large_file.rar” which can open the file fine. So I’ve
pretty much ruled out permissions issues. I’ve
also enabled ‘debug’ LogLevel but there’s nothing generated
that is helpful. I
don’t see anything in my .conf files that enforce any file sizes.
I didn’t even see such an option in the document, there appears to be
configuration options only for limiting the size of the HTTP request *sent* by the client. Any
insight into what’s happen would be appreciated! Thanks, John ---------- Learn more about Chase Paymentech Solutions,LLC payment processing services at www.chasepaymentech.com.
