I''m attempting to use send_file to send an image file from public/images. The file is world readable.

I have an application which uses send_file to send a ZIP file to the client. This works nicely when it''s run on our development OS-X boxes, using mongrel from script/server, but on our production server, using mongrel behind Apache 2.2. with mod_proxy_balancer, the client gets 1 byte delivered :-( If I use wget -S to the URL in order to see the full headers I see this on

Hi, I''m trying to figure out the best way to protect images uploaded by users who may wish to keep them private. For example, if they are uploaded in the default file_column location (/public/blah/blah/1/) then someone can simply type the URL http://www.blah.com/blah/blah/1 and get the image. I can store the images in a non-public directory in the rails app (ie: /railsapp/images/X/)

Hello, I''m working on a download service which grants users a one-time-download access to files. The idea is to write an entry to a database table after a successful download that "locks" the download link for the user. After doing some quick tests with send_file I noticed that send_file does not block until the user has downloaded the full file, but proceeds with the
