Large file up and downloading HELP PLEASE - 2008/08/30 12:18
Hi! As always, HUGE THANKS to the brilliant, diligent, and very helpful Remository developer Martin Brampton.
To the issue at hand:
I need HELP and SUGGESTIONS regarding uploading and downloading large files in Remository 3.4 under Joomla 1.56 on an Apache server.
My ISP won't let me noodle with the file size and execution times. Basically I'm restricted to 120 seconds.
My files are audio recordings typically 30mb to 150mb in size.
My experiments have succeeded in files up to 20mb up and down, but any larger and I hit the wall with my ISP's server set up.
I'm wondering if there might be a trick to "ping" the server every minute or so, so that the session doesn't time out. Maybe a clever progress bar, or at least a whirly little wheel or something. I'm just thinking off the top of my head, so I may be heading down the wrong road.
Nonetheless, any suggestions or tips would be enormously appreciated.
Thank you for your attention, -RR
