File Download Size

I am trying to download a file that is about 2mb and I keep getting an error: 417 Saying that the requested file is to large. Is there any way around this?
Thanks in advance.

IronPort S170 WSA - Max file download size

Hello,
we're using an IronPort S170 WSA. Downloading big .iso (maybe other files, too) files fails. As far as I can find out, files of 2300MB or less can be downloaded, files of 3300MB or bigger fail to download (I haven't been able to try files with sizes between 2300MB - 3300MB). Using the same client without using the IronPort as a proxy, the download of the big files succeed.
The web page error message indicates:
Blocked by [companyname] Web Proxy
Category = Allowed%20URL%208080
WBRS Value = -
DVS Verdict = -
DVS Threat = -
So, I assume there is a setting in the IronPort that prevents the download of files exceeding a size limit. But I cannot find any config item that controls this. Does anyone know where this setting can be found?

Do you get an instant block for large files? Or does it try to download for a while, and then fails?
If it is an instant block, it should be under Web Security Manager > Access Policies. Look in the object types section.
If you are downloading for about an hour and the downloads stop, it may be authentication related.

Newbie question - SWF file download size

If I have say 20 different screens to display in a flex application, after I compile the size of the swf file would be quite big (5+Mbs apprx) for the browser to download. Hence, the users will have a waiting state unless the SWF file is completely downloaded to the browser cache. And if there are any update to the file the complete file will be again downloaded to the client.
I want to reduce this download time and ensure that users do not get tired of waiting for download to happen. Preferably I would like to load the components/screens as and when required (like it is done in java web start). Is something like this possible in flex? If yes how?
One of the approaches is to have multiple SWF files say for every module. Even in such cases the size of SWF file will be large enough for the user to wait. It will also display a blank screen on the browser when switching from one SWF file to another (considering it will be done through HTML).
This is a practical problem and must be faced by a number of applications. That makes me believe Flash must have something that provides dynamic loading of components as and when clicked.

File download size limit - 2 GB?

I have CE560 content engines running ACNS 5.3.1. Users trying to download files over 2GB via a browser get only about 2GB of the download. There are no errors. Is there some limit? Setting I can change?

If you do the writing of files yourself, e.g. using the Write File node,
then you can go to www.openg.org and checkout the OpenG Toolkit. There
should be a link from
http://www.openg.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=OpenG+Toolkit to the
sourceforge page where you can download the entire Toolkit or portions
thereof. You are interested in the Large File IO libarary which access
the Win32 API to handle files bigger than 2GB.

Download file of size 3GB failing with error

Hi all,
I have created an asp.net web application and created azure storage account and saved a block blob of size 3GB.
Now I want to download this file of size 3GB but getting error that "Connection was closed". There is no problem on network in my system but still I am getting this error.
Thanks looking for help.

Have you tried this// Retrieve storage account from connection string.
CloudStorageAccount storageAccount =
CloudStorageAccount.Parse(
CloudConfigurationManager.GetSetting("StorageConnectionString"));
// Create the blob client.
CloudBlobClient blobClient = storageAccount.CreateCloudBlobClient();
// Retrieve reference to a previously created container.
CloudBlobContainer container = blobClient.GetContainerReference("mycontainer");
// Retrieve reference to a blob named "photo1.jpg".
CloudBlockBlob blockBlob = container.GetBlockBlobReference("photo1.jpg");
// Save blob contents to a file.
using (var fileStream
= System.IO.File.OpenWrite(@"path\myfile"))
blockBlob.DownloadToStream(fileStream);

TAx Reporter Temse Files Download Automation

Hi,
I have a reuiqrement to download the Temse files generated in Tax Reporter. I have completed the code and it works fine if we run the program in foreground. But when I run the same program in background some Temse files downloaded have junk characters. If I download the same Temse file in foreground it works fine.
There seems to be some issue with the FM when I run my progam in background.
I have searched SDN and SAP Notes for any clues but did not get any.

Can anyone please check and tell me what I need to overcome this problem.

Hi Bhaskar,
I also have the same requirement to upload TemSe files in to application server.
In FDTA tcode after we enter company code and click on enter.
In the second screen checking and line item and go to edit and click on download button.
Here we see a popup with default file name, and when we say ok the file will get downloaded into C:\.....
Here our req is to upload the file automatically pick up via batch job and place it in the in to the application server and from there it should be placed in the Netwrok server (UNIX).
Pls provide me with suitable code so that i can finish it off.I tried a lot but did not work.
Thanks.

I am having problems downloading files from the web. After a number of files are downloaded, the system become sluggish, and then hangs. I traced the problem to the download history file: downloads.sqlite.

After downloading a number of 1.0 MB files, the system became very sluggish, and I started to get lots of (Not Responding) messages when trying to download or just use Firefox for browsing. Using Performance Monitor, I observed that the Firefox executable was growing larger and larger - up to as large as 1.2 GB on a system with 2.0 GB memory. Page faults were off the chart.
Looking for a similar problem, I found one that discussed the downloads.sqlite file becoming corrupted. I first noticed that this file was over 600 MB in size, so I deleted it. I then downloaded additional files, and observed that the new downloads.sqlite file would increase in size by about 150% of the size of each file that was downloaded. Once it would get up to 500 MB in size, the system started slowing down again.
I don't know the purpose of this file, but it appears that it keeps a full copy of every file downloaded, which may be the function of a download history file, but it does not seem correct that the file should grow in size without limit, and thus impact the system.
I would also appear that the Firefox executable is trying to read the entire contents of this file each time a new file is downloaded, which does not seem right.
Temporary fix is to periodically delete the downloads.sqlite file when it gets too large and starts impacting performance.. Apparently it is smart enough to open a new file if the old one is not found. I am not sure what the correct behavior for this file should be. Apparently is does not re-initialize when a new Firefox session is initiated.
Please feel free to contact me if more information is desired. I'm not sure what details you might need to troubleshoot this type of problem.

Hi Katy, and a warm welcome to the forums!
What is the exact name of the file?
Is it aim.bin?
Which requires either Stuffit Expander, or the Unarchiver to deflate.

File DownLoad from R/3 to Local Disk through Web Dynpro

Hi,
I have a zebra print spool, to be saved in the local disk. For this, I have an RFC which will store the document in Portal Server KM folder and will give the file name for web dynpro app. The web dynpro app will search the KM Directory, and will enable the user to save the file on the local disk.
Is it right approach? Is there any other approaches which would be efficient. BTW, I have files from 4k to 12k size. Can I directly attach it to the context variable and store it directly onto the local disk.
I am running Netweaver2004 SP16. I cant use Input stream, does this affect the performance?.
Thanks, I appreciate your time.

Hi Raj,
you have the name and the full path of the file you can access the file through FILE IO as the file is on portal server only and then you can use the File Download UI in web dynpro to download the file

Error while opening PDF file downloaded from database Blob column

Hi All,
I am working on jdev 11.1.1.4.0.
In my use-case I am using filedownload Actionlistner on a link to get the PDF file stored in the database in blob field. These files are being uploaded from other use-case in adf only.
After getting the dialog box to open/save/cancel for the PDF file when i click on open then i am getting an error *'Adobe Reader could not open 'abc.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type*
or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly docoded)' for some files , and to my surprise I am able to open some files.
When I open these PDF files separately from desktop I am able to view the content of each and every file in adobe reader.
I dont know where the problem exactly lies , while uploading/downloading the file . Any ideas/thoughts to resolve this issue?
Thanks
Kanika

Thanks a lot Timo...!!!
I checked the PDF file downloaded directly from the blob column in DB, there only it is corrupted so must be the problem in uploading the file. I am checking the code line by line,, but no problem in setting the file content type,size etc.
Here is the code snippet ..
byte[] buff;
buff = new byte[(int)length]; -- Length is the file size
int bytesRead = is.read(buff);
for (int i = 0; bytesRead < buff.length; i++) {
// int b = is.read();
int b = is.read();
if (b == -1)
break;
buff[i] = (byte)b;
BlobDomain blobDomian = new BlobDomain((buff));
TestVORow = (TestVORow Impl)TestVO.createRow();
if(blobDomian != null) {
TestVORow.setAttachment(blobDomian);
am.getTransaction().commit();
This seems to be Ok to me..the same issue, file is still corrupting.
Any thoughts from your side ???
Thanks
Kanika
The problem is resolved.
Changes made are instead of
InputStream is;
used ... BufferedInputStream bis ;
and after
for (int i = 0; bytesRead < buff.length; i++) {
// int b = bis.read();
int b = bis.read();
if (b == -1)
break;
buff[i] = (byte)b;
bis.close(); // use this close bufferedInput Stream.
Able to open each and every file now..Thanks for your suggestions Timo and Frank.

File download problem

I am using the following code to present a file to the client to download when a report is generated. The code does what is suppose to, it presents a dialog box where the user can choose to open, save, or cancel the file download. However, when the file is downloaded it contains the client HTML at the bottom of the saved file. I checked the created file on the server and it does not contain the HTML at the bottom, so it is being added by the following jsp code when the file is presented to the user. Any help would be appreciated. BTW, this running on HP-UX 11i using oracle forms 10G.
   String RPT = request.getParameter("trig");
   String SDATE = request.getParameter("start_date");
   String EDATE = request.getParameter("end_date");
   String PRN = request.getParameter("prn");

          String[] doRefresh = {"/usr/bin/sh", "-c", "/usr/local/oracle/sql/st_tags/some_script '" + SDATE + "' '" + EDATE + "' '" + PRN + "'"};
          rt1 = Runtime.getRuntime();
          proc1 = rt1.exec(doRefresh);
          int exitVal = proc1.waitFor();

          (new FileInputStream(fileToDownload));
          int ch;
          while((ch=in.read()) != -1) {
          outs.print((char) ch);
       finally {

Can a Quicktime file download from clickable link?

Quicktime file download to desktop from clickable link?
I have large movies that I want to make available for direct download to the desktop so people will click download and do something else.
It is my understanding that you can't provide a quicktime file for download to a desktop because there are PC/MAC and browser issues across platform. But maybe I'm wrong.
Is it possible to make a web page that allows users to download higher file size videos from a clickable link? The quicktimes are h.264 in SD + HD around 50-100 megs. The files will be so large people won't want to wait so I want it to go directly to the desktop.
So far I can only find a few similar options
1) Embed the file in a web page. Provide a download link after the movie loads.
(This option requires you to load the file into the page. Users may not wait and close it)
2) Provide a zip file. This allows you to create a clickable link to the zip which begins downloading upon clicking. You then unzip the file. (Some less computer savvy people may get confused by the zip)
3) Put a raw file on server. This will play the movie in a blank window but can also be right clicked for direct download.

Welcome to the discussions, jessestudio.
I've seen a few sites that have a link to the video with instructions to "Right-click to download". Essentially, it's option three with instructions. It seems to be a fairly common way of handling it. (Even for non-QuickTime movies)

Test for file download complete

Does anyone know an accurate way to test that a file download is complete? Reports are being brought down from a server and I want to know if the download is complete before I begin parsing the file.
Anyone know how to do this? Is File.canWrite() an accurate test?
Thanks,
Matt

Our server team initiates the download.Then you're out of luck. You can monitor the file size change over time, but it might as well be an incomplete or aborted download. I wouldn't know if a file that's written to will be blocked for reading. Might be, might not be. I'd say not, given my experience.
