Post subject: | I can't download a large file. |
I've recorded a home video onto my knoppmyth computer and have it linked to my www folder so I can download it to a computer with a DVD burner. When I try to download it through apache I just get a 0 byte file. Everything appears to work otherwise. When I do the same thing with a smaller file it works without any problems. The file I am having trouble with is just over 4 GB. Is there a configuration in Apache to fix this? |

This has been reported before when trying to get large files via MythWeb and/or the Apache server that's running on KnoppMyth: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic. ... thweb+file Unless there's a reason you need to connect via a web browser, you should instead transfer the file some other way: scp, nfs, smb. I usually move things to a Windows machine via smb--I recently moved a 16GB file with no problems. http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php? ...

Thats for the reply. That seems to be exactly my problem. I can use samba on my home network fine, but I need to transfer this to my office where I have access to a DVD burner. I think, maybe the simpilist thing will be to break up the file and do it in two parts. |

What ports would I have to map in my router to get samba to work across the internet? |

This isn't a good idea. You want to use SCP. |

That's right. Set up ssh for remote login and if you have MS Windows at the office download WinSCP. |

I would much rather do this the easiest way (no downloading) than the most secure. This will only be open for a day while I download the file, it isn't really worth the effort to me to set up a secure system for just that. |

I really wouldn't recommend using samba directly over the internet, but if you must, forward these ports: 137, 138, 139, 445 A much better option would be to forward 22 (ssh) and use sftp in filezilla. |
