php download timeout

Post by dajo »

Hey guys,

I recently started messing around with PHP and Joomla. I know for Joomla problems this probably isn't the right place, but it might have something to do with PHP (serverside).
Joomla uses a component written in PHP for downloads, but everytime i download a big file, the download will stop after two minutes. Which led me to believe it might have something to do with a PHP download, as direct downloading the file via a "normal" link does not have this problem.
I already tried altering the set_time_limit / max_php_execution_time / max_input_time in the php.ini, and when I check the set_time_limit on the moment of downloading it returns 4 hours which should be enough..

I'll continue fiddling around with it, and share the result with you if I somehow figure it out :)

Thanks for your time!
