When I attempt to download a 'large" (> 2 gigabytes) file from apache, I get a 403 forbidden response. This appears in the error_log: [Tue May 31 14:39:37 2005] [error] [client 192.168.6.105] (75)Value too large for defined data type: access to /mythweb/video_dir/1048_20050528080000_20050528100000.nuv failed, referer: http://alexandria.purplefrog.com/mythweb/video_dir/ Files less than 2G with the same permissions download just fine. I have had this problem with apache through a couple of upgrades, so it is likely common to most builds. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a file >2G in apache's web space 2. try to download it 3. Actual Results: 403 forbidden Expected Results: download really large file.

http://httpd.apache.org/dev/dist/CHANGES_2.1 *) Fix handling of files >2Gb on all platforms (or builds) where apr_off_t is larger than apr_size_t. PR 28898. [Joe Orton] http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28898
We will look at putting 2.1.x ebuilds in the the tree after things have settled down from the current reworking of apache in gentoo. we tried making largefile support work in the current line of apache, but apr-0.x is too buggy in regards to that. --> CANTFIX in 2.0.x --> LATER when 2.2.x comes out (possibly 2.1.x) Reference bugs: bug 14606 bug 24373 bug 69689
