Michael,sendfile usually breaks when content is obtained from some sort of network storage, or filesystem restrictions are applied.
My guess that is Avira changed something on your system to that effect. Michael Dearman wrote:
Frank, I had already uninstalled, sorry i forgot to mention that bit. EnableSendFile off did the trick. As it all worked before without that directive I guess that means sendfile is broken on my server?

Now when i try to access any webpages the html is served correctly but css and images are returned as empty files. There are no errors in the logs and the server is still serving our svn version control correctly so other than this problem, apache seems to be working fine. The files are definitely there and there are no error messages to suggest file access problems. I'm out of ideas on how to fixitand really don't want to re-install as svn is critical for us so I would welcome some suggestions.
