send_file doesn''t work with Apache?...

Hi,

I''ve been using send_file in my Rails application with
WEBrick happily to send files of various sizes and
kinds.

The same code fails to send anything but a 500 error
when run under Apache, and a log file message
"warning: syswrite for buffered IO".

Looking back through the mailing list archives I see that
there have been send_file bugs in the past.  Can some
knowledgeable person tell me if these problems are
still unfixed for Rails application using Apache?

Cheers,

Stu
