 |
|
When trying to download a 4.3G mac disk image, Apache/2.0.48 fails strangly and writes | Code: | | (75)Value too large for defined data type: access to /backup/XXX.dmg failed |
in my error_log file.
Actually it won't even list my backup image in the apache-generated index, while other files (with same file extension) in the same directory shows up without problem.
Google searches gives me discussions on the subject and it seems to be an issue with lacking large file support (LFS) in linux and/or Apache.
http://www.suse.de/~aj/linux_lfs.html
http://www.apacheweek.com/features/vendorversions
It seems like SuSE, Debian among other distros are building Apache with LFS-support. But I want a Gentoo solution to this matter. Where do I go from here?

I added
| Code: |
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
|
to my CFLAGS, and then it seems to kinda work, but Mozilla doesn't like it. |

question about your fix... I am running apache-2.0.58-r2
does your entire system have to be compiled with that flag our can you just compile apache and take it back out??

Since Apache httpd 2.2.4 was just added to ~ARCH, you shouldn't need to set these flags anymore. |
