Download Redirect

[graphicore]

I moved my downloads folder behind /public_html folder on the server to protect its contents from robots and search engines and configure the downloads to get the files from there. I also change the download configuration to redirect=true; so that it copies he files to be downloaded into the pub folder in osc.

 

But when I click on the download link on the order I get the file but the content of the file says:

 

<b>Warning</b>: symlink(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 32330 is not allowed to access /home/srise17/publi

 

How can I avoid this??????

Download by redirect (False)

Script used:

 

readfile(DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD . $downloads['orders_products_filename']);

}

 

Error:

<br />

<b>Warning</b>: readfile() has been disabled for security reasons in

 

<b>/home/srise17/public_html/osc/download.php</b> on line <b>98</b

---------------------------------------------------------------

Download by redirect (True)

 

Script used:

 

tep_unlink_temp_dir(DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC);

$tempdir = tep_random_name();

umask(0000);

mkdir(DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC . $tempdir, 0777);

symlink(DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD . $downloads['orders_products_filename'], DIR_FS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC

 

. $tempdir . '/' . $downloads['orders_products_filename']);

tep_redirect(DIR_WS_DOWNLOAD_PUBLIC . $tempdir . '/' .

 

$downloads['orders_products_filename']);

 

Error:

<br />

<b>Warning</b>: symlink(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is

 

32330 is not allowed to access /home/srise17/publi

 

 

IS anywhere a workaround to fix this????? Please need info asap...

Well... Here we go again.

 

Since there was no response at all at this threat... and after hitting the wall with my head several times... :P I decided to make a deep research and came out with my second contribution to continue on this "Download Saga" :)

 

This solved the problem described in this post:
