I'm attempting to use mod_xsendfile on windows (XP SP2), using Apache
2.2.4. I need it to send files off of a network share.
I've configure apache to allow access to the share -- the apache
service is logging in with an account that allows access. To test this, I've setup apache to map the UNC to an alias, and allow access from the browser. This works just fine.
I've also verified the mod_xsendfile is installed and working for files on the local disk drive.
I've tried sending x-sendfile arguments like //server/path/file, and
\\server\path\file. Either way, the browser returns a "You don't have
permission to access index.php on this server." I've also tried
mapping the UNC to a local drive letter, but with the same results.
I see entries like this in my error.log:
[Thu Sep 27 11:17:37 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (70008)Partial
results are valid but processing is incomplete: xsendfile: unable to
stat file: //server/path/blah.txt
Any assistance you could provide would be much appreciated. |

I've tried upgrading to apache lounge 2.2.5, and mod_xsendfile .10 beta - no change, it still gives me permission denied when trying to access UNC's, with this in the log:
(70008)Partial results are valid but processing is incomplete: xsendfile: unable to stat file: //server/path/file
Meanwhile, aliases pointing to the unc path work just fine. |

Hi hallow or whoever might stumble upon this post with the same problem.
This is an error with the way Apache checks permissions for a file. Under certain conditions (complex Active Directory and some other situations) it'll not get the full set back and return the "70008 Partial Results" message.
Since you're accessing a UNC you'll obviously need to interact with AD permissions. One solution would be to remove all AD users / groups from the permissions for accessing the files, but that's no good to you for a UNC path.
The only solution on offer is to recompile the module with a patch to just check the file is there and not for permissions. Someone has already done this and it's linked off the bug entry for this problem.
