Summary: Apache byterange output filter nullified if mod_php5
output > 8000 bytes
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: Apache2 related
Operating System: Ubuntu
PHP Version: 5.*, 6CVS (2009-07-15)
New Comment:
I can confirm this problem. Exactly over 8000 Bytes it does not work
anymore. Also using the Apache module x-sendfile does not solve this
error in my case. The one and only work-around in my case is a header
call with location of a static url.
header('Location: http://any.url/toanyfile.html');
exit;
After this just Apache controls the range operator and it works as
expected.

I have found that using sing X-Sendfile will solve this issue:
http://tn123.ath.cx/mod_xsendfile/
(at least for Apache/mod_php).
Also even if this "bug" was fixed, I'm not sure the results would be
very desirable. Since there's no way to efficiently "fseek" to a
particular byte in the script output, I assume mod_php would have to
transfer the entire document internally for each chunk that was
requested.

Using the handler module:
LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so
<IfModule mod_php5.c>
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3 .html .inc .func
.clss
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</IfModule>

Are you using the filter or handler module? What exactly do you put in
your httpd.conf to enable PHP?

I tested against nightly snapshot php5.3-200907151630 and still obtain
the same results. The bug is probably in the php5 apache2 module.
