Rails - Jul 2006 - quick send_data question...

Hi,

I am using send_data to allow users to download files from the database 
but ran into a small problem, it seems that files upload fine but when 
they download only 64kb of the file is sent.

I''m using the basic rails code from the Agile book:

#upload code in my sheet model

  def file=(document_field)
    self.filename = base_part_of(document_field.original_filename)
    self.content_type = document_field.content_type.chomp
    self.data = document_field.read
  end

  def base_part_of(file_name)
    name = File.basename(file_name)
    name.gsub(/[^\w._-]/, '''')
  end

#download in my application controller

  def download
    sheet = params[:id]
    @sheet = Sheet.find(sheet)
    send_data(@sheet.data, :type => @sheet.content_type, :filename => 
@sheet.filename)
  end

Am I just completely missing something?

What DB are you using? Maybe there''s a (time or data) limit in your 
DB-Configuration?

It seems that only 64kb of the file is uploaded to the database, is the 
rails code at fault here? I would assume that it gets cut off somewhere, 
being that 3 files I uploaded that are all different sizes sit in the 
database at 64kb.

Thanks
