Hi,

I was wondering if anybody knows whether it is possible to disable "Resume download" functionality in a server Apache/2.0.52.

If this is possible, how can I do it?

If not, does anybody knows what server does not support Resume download?

Needless to say that I am new at server configuration.

Thank you in advance for any help/suggestions you can provide.

These directives will disable resuming downloads with Apache 2.2.
I didn't test it with Apache 2.0, but I expect they would work the same.
Code:
LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so
Header set Accept-Ranges none
RequestHeader unset Range


Why would you want to disable resuming downloads? That seems like a unusual requirement.

Hi Tom,

Thank you for your answers.

You're right this is an unusual requirement. I am making sure my app does not crashes in the unlikely, but possible, event that it accesses a server that does not support resume download.

I will give it a try and let you know if it worked just in case somebody else is in a similar situation.

Sincerely

Luz

Hi,

Me again, I can not find the last two directives:

Header set Accept-Ranges none
RequestHeader unset Range

Can you provide a little more detail? anybody?

Thanks

The Header directive is documented here for Apache 2.0, and the RequestHeader directive is documented here.
