Hello

I recently installed the latest version of Drupal 5.1. I then installed taxonimy, views, and finally audio. The server is a dual AMD running FreeBSD 6. Apache 1.3.37, PHP 4.4.4, MySQL

Everything appears to work fine, but downloading and playing never function correctly. Safari reports a "bad server response" when trying to download.

the "files" folder is inside of the Drupal folder, which audio points to. it has 777 permissions. The audio files being uploaded are placed correctly, and the database is correct as well. for some reason drupal wont allow the file to be downloaded or streamed.

I also tried starting from scratch. i installed drupal 5.1, made my first user account, installed and enabled views, and then audio. configured them both. permissions come preset as they should be, but once again only anonymous users can download and play. admin and authenticated both get errors. i dont understand, is there some other step i need to do with user permissions?

thanks

I have always found safari to be problematic. It is always a good idea to check in other browsers. I have them all installed on my computer. Oh except for Safari.

Yeah i tried it in Firefox, still doesn't work when logged in as an auth user or admin. I don't understand this, it is really frustrating.

I've searched the issues and forums here but have found nothing remotely similar.

it appears to be something with the cookies. whenever there is any sort of cookie from logging in, this module won't work, just reports a bad server response.

i tried updating from php 4.4.4 to 4.4.6 but that did not help. i can't upgrade to php 5 because i have other sites on this server that need 4.

php is configured normally, aside from register globals being on, which my other site geeklog requires.

all seems to be working now, i guess a good reboot was needed after upgrading to php 4.4.6

i also redid the php config from scratch, i guess i must have had something changed in there that drupal didnt like.

thanks
