I suspect that you are running out of allowed cpu time on your server.

Several questions:
a) how large are the files you are trying to download?
b) where are these files stored (locally or on another server?
c) how are you setting up the entries (as poiners to local files (e.g. /dir/file.typ) or as full urls (http : // site / dir / file.typ)
d) what setting have you given for the LDM admin setting force_redirect?
e) is your board running in safe mode?

In its default settings, LDM provides secure file management so that people can't find out where the files are held. Unfortunately this comes at a cost - particularly if you set up entries using full urls - and you can easily burn up all the allowed cpu.

This is explained in the on line manual = see http://www.eirma.org/wikis/index.php...nd_Server_Load.

For secure file management, fastest/best is to have files on your local server, with the entries set up as local file names, not as full urls.

If you can't accommodate your files that way, you may need to set LDM's setting force_redirect to 1, which is not as secure but far less cpu intensive.

Let me know if this is not the problem.
