Timing out with big uploads... Dunno why
    #7334633 - 08/25/07 10:19 PM (16 years, 5 months ago)

Using firefox and/or IE and mediafire.com (I've also tried a few different file upload storage websites), my browser will routinely let me upload for about 8 minutes or so and then display an error message saying that it couldn't connect to the web page. How does one circumvent this problem?

Smaller files or faster connection

This sounds pretty weird. Both ways any user should be able to download files for a period of time without the connection reseting. Do you know if your ISP is disallowing large file uploads/downloads? That's a pretty common issue with certain ISP's that have restrictions.

Not at all... downloading is (typically) handled by the httpd server while uploading is handled by a script. Most scripts have a maximum execution time to prevent buggy/hung scripts from sucking resources forever. If the upload time exceeds the scripts maximum execution time, the script closes the connection and the upload fails.
