Re: Download file

Hi Muhammad,

It is more simple than in cakephp 1.3.

After 2.3, you only need to put the command bellow on action of your controller. 

$this->response->file('/full_path/to/yourfile.jpg');

return $this->response;

Based from tutorial at http://www.tuxradar.com/content/cakephp-tutorial-build-file-sharing-application , i manage to upload file and it capture the filename, filesize and filemime without any error but when download the file, it will produce wrong file mime for example, the file mime should be .jpg but in Google chrome it will be .htm and in IE it only download file with the name but no extension for that file. it seem something wrong with the controller codes.

function download($id = null) {

if (!$id) {

$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid id for upload', true));

$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));

}

$this->Upload->bindModel(array('hasOne' => array('UploadsUser')));

$upload = $this->Upload->find('first', array(

'conditions' => array(

'Upload.id' => $id,

'OR' => array(

'UploadsUser.user_id' => $this->Auth->user('id'),

'Upload.user_id' => $this->Auth->user('id'),

),

)

));

if (!$upload) {

$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid id for upload', true));

$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));

}

$this->viewClass = 'Media';

$filename = $upload['Upload']['filename'];

$this->set(array(

'id' => $upload['Upload']['id'],

'name' => substr($filename, 0, strrpos($filename,'.')),

'extension' => substr(strrchr($filename,'.'), 1),

'path' => APP.'uploads'.DS,

'download' => true,

));

}

Based on the codes, maybe the extension have problem. Anyone can help? thanks...
