Re: CakePHP Media View Download of PDF Files Size Limit?

Hi
Would you mind sharing the code snippet to download pdf files using mediaview in cakephp controller. I am able to download the file and but I try to open the pdf after the download is complete, I get invalid/corrupt file error from Adobe Reader.

Other file types work just fine. I wonder if the header needs to be setup in a certain way. 

I am using Cakephp 1.3

great and I can basically force authentication prior to users
downloading the files.

The one problem I've run into is that once a PDF file goes over a
certain size, the file won't download. I'm given the prompt to
download the file, the option to specify where I'd like to save the
file, but after that the file download doesn't start. I've gone
through the logs (cake and apache) and cannot see anything obvious.

Again smaller PDF files are being downloaded properly.

Would love to hear if anyone else has run into this issue before or
whether anyone has any tips on where I can investigate further.

Thanks!
