Description Hagan Franks 2007-10-03 18:36:34 UTC
My apologies if this problem has already been discussed; I've searched the net and have yet found a solution to this seemingly simple problem.  I've got a windows file server (2003) sharing video files.... I can successfully connect to this share and transfer,edit,delete etc files to my hearts content.  However, when i try to transfer anything via apache, after about 30-150k, the transfer stops and no matter where i look i can't find a log suggesting anything is wrong. (So I am hoping this is a bug and not me being dumb and wasting your time)

The mount command i'm using:
//myvideoserver/online_videos /mnt/video cifs user,file_mode=0664,dir_mode=0775,uid=48,gid=48,rw,noauto,credentials=/etc/smb.auth 0 0

uid, gid are set to 'apache' so apache can read these files, and it can because i'm not having an access denied error.  I've modified the selinux policy to allow cifs_t through... But to be sure, i've disabled selinux.

To test i'm using the following httpd.conf addition so i can make sure this isn't all apaches fault.... (works when video is local and not a remote share)

<Directory "/mnt/video">
    Options Indexes MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

I've checked these logs and found nothing:

 /var/log/messages, /var/log/httpd/access_log, /var/log/httpd/error_log, /var/log/audit/audit.log etc.... 

After setting the debug flags for cifs, dmesg reports the following when apache pushes a file....
  "GET /videos/dailydose/dd-2007-10-01.flv HTTP/1.1"

I don't know what i'm looking for in the debug statements.. else i probably wouldn't be posting this...

Oh, i'm running centos 5 with 2.6.18-8.1.8.el5xen kernel, x86_64 connecting to a windows 2003 server.  

thanks,

hagan

I found a solution to my problem... Looks like an apache bug/feature I missed on apache's own site....  If anyone else has them problem goto:

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42751

for a fix.
