Trying to download static resources... I’m tripping on errors. Seems to be similar to this bug:

500 Server Error

A misconfiguration on the server caused a hiccup. Check the server logs, fix the problem, then try again.

Is anyone getting errors like this? It’s on a shared server, so I don’t have much access to logs... and I don’t think it’s getting enough PHP memory to make this work well. Revo seems to require a bit more resources than Evo. I’m trying to bench test this for some large attachments (20-30mb). So maybe I have to set up dedicated server for this...

Thoughts?

I’ve seen errors like this related to IIS. From what I recall, the problem existed somewhere within the Windows server configuration.

Unfortunately that’s all I know, as vague as it seems, because I steer clear of all things Windows outside of my home computers.

The only time I touch windows is when my fists are clenched and I’m keeping it away from the children.

This is a Linux server running Apache.... gotta check versions.

I’ve verified that the error is dependent on the file size. But it’s hard to nail down exactly when you’re gonna trip the circuit breaker. Perhaps this is an area where the limitations of working with a shared host are really apparent.
