your settings would be interesting. can you run "lighttpd -tp -f /path/to/lighttpd.conf > lighty.txt 2>&1" and attach the file here?

i bet you use sendfile as backend. but it seems write would be a better option for you. furthermore.. what filesystem do you use on the storage?

Replying to darix:

I am sorry, but I cannot repro the bug anymore. Shortly after I had filed the bug I have changed the config file - I don't remember what I did - and from that on it worked. Sorry...

I could send the current config file, if necessary.

I use ext3 as file system.

I get a lot for breal when play flv file.
down laod zip file also get break soma time.
my system is freebsd 7-current with lighttpd 1.4.18.

Though this entry is old, I cannot find a solution.
I found the same problem: after 512K the download stops. I'm on 1.4.18 on an NSLU2 with uNSLUng 6.8.

This might be a problem not with Lighttpd but with your IPTABLES. I doubt it as you are accessing the data on a LAN (from what i understand). However, about 2 months ago i had a very similar problem when downloading large files or viewing flash in a browser on a server i run. The odd thing is it would only happen from some locations and turned out to be a problem with packet MTU size.

Check if you iptables has this line or a equiv. in it.
is a default setting on CentOS5
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited

In my case this was causing problems with a router somewhere between my server and the world.
It seems to be fixed by replacing the above line with this.

1. Fix the firewall
   -A FORWARD -p icmp --icmp-type fragmentation-needed -j ACCEPT
   -A FORWARD -p icmp -j DROP
   -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type fragmentation-needed -j ACCEPT
   -A INPUT -p icmp -j DROP

Hope this helps you out. Also, this will fix problems with trying to SCP large files and getting a consistent stall.

See #759

Workaround:

{{{server.network-backend = "write"}}}
