slmcdee Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 So I was trying to do a quick workaround in reference to downloadable products because of server php upload limits.Basically I'm uploading a decoy file (1mb) with the same name as the actual file (100mb). The actual file is already on the server in the same location (/download) that prestashop places the uploaded file. I tried replacing the name of the actual file with the name that decoy file now has.... when you click the link I get in essence a 404. Somehow Prestashop knows that I've simply change the name of the files and it won't allow me to download the newly renamed file.Any help or suggestions would be appreciate.

spott Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Try directly from database at product side to modify the source.And bulk upload - add with CSV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citrus Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 The decoy method works but on larger files, the memory limit in PHP will cause the link to fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarisatnoon Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 The decoy method works but on larger files, the memory limit in PHP will cause the link to fail. I've found this to be true as well. All my files worked fine except when I tried to upload a 100MB file. Is there any work-around for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
