PHP zip problem?

[marianko]

Hi guys, I'm no expert on php, but I believe it's got to be something with PHP version 5.2.5 or some settings - because from a certain time I'm not able to download any zip file from a directory on one of my websites:

http://mydigitalmall.net/phpinfo.php

It was OK and the zip files were downloading correctly, but when you for example enter this into your browser:

http://www.mydigitalmall.net/cart/index.php?cmd=dl&id=73a47224cbdb4290f3660e2d7

you'll get a corrupted zip file, BUT if you enter this directly to the browser, the zip file downloads correctly:

http://mydigitalmall.net/cart/products/HalloweenMiniSites-MRR.zip

Can someone be so kind and tell me where the problem can be? Is it with the PHP upgrade on server, can it be fixed? The scripts really worked fine before.

Here's the script log with some errors and the download class script:

Many thanks for every bit of help or direction.

You're not actually downloading a corrupted zip file.

There are errors in the PHP so instead of serving up the zip file (it never gets as far as delivering the zip file), it's serving up a web page with PHP errors on it... but since the Mime type is set to Zip file, the web page with the PHP errors is treated like a zip file by your browser.

So the place to start troubleshooting this is to open your "corrupted zip file" in a text editor and see the web page that you would have seen in your web browser if the Mime types hadn't tricked your browser into thinking it was getting a zip file.

There appears to be a problem with your filesize() function and also, readfile(../products/HalloweenMiniSites-MRR.zip) doesn't seem to exist.

Many thanks for your help. I just relocated the zip files and it seems like it finally works! 🙂
