s2member download file size limited to 35.4 mb

That sounds like a question to ask your host.

I resolved the issue. I had the .htaccess file with long code sitting in the app-data folder withing the s2member-files folder instead of the s2member-files folder.

Actually, the issue is not resolved. Since moving the htaccess file I can only download items 51.1 mb or less. This sucks. I have a file that’s 134 mb and s2members fails when a member tries to download. No, it’s not an issue with my server… it’s set to umlimited. My son works for the company hosting my site and he checked.

What is set to unlimited?

There is no file size limit or download limit.

everything under 51.1 mb in size downloads fine. It’s this one file that’s 134 mb. I can download that large file via ftp no problem but not through s2members.

I’m now trying a php hack to change the file directory where files are downloaded to see if moving where the downloads are served from will solve the issue.

OK, but you don’t mention memory limit. Perhaps it’s just timing out. Try adding this to your wp-config.php file:

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT' , '128M' );
define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT' , '512M' );

ok. just a minute… hey, thanks for the help… I’ll be back in a min.

Well, with the define code in the config file it’s back to 35.4 mb max download size!

Took the memory limit code back out and I’m back up to 51.1 max download. I’ll have my son look into the download timing out that you mentioned.

That’s odd, because that code increases the memory available from the default 48MB.

Perhaps you should try the s2Member server scanner and see if it can find anything. You can download it here.

ok. I’ll check that out. thanks.

Yup. found some things including memory limit of 40mb. I’ll get them to fix the issues. thanks for the great tips!

You’re welcome. Hope you get it working quickly!
