Privitize Your Downloads.

I need to privatise my download links, so know-one really knows the true DIR of the download.

I've found this script, although it only downloads my download.php [The actual script, and not the .zip file i wanted to download]! Why!?



Code:

// download.php Script

$fileLocation = '/home/domains/your.domain/public_html/download/';
$file = 'filename.zip';

header("Cache-control: private");
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/force-download');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize('$fileLocation' . $file));
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=' . $file);


So what am i doing wrong?

Code:
$fileLocation = '/home/domains/your.domain/public_html/download/';
$file = 'filename.zip';


$fileLocation is relative to the root path of your download.php file.
roee
check for this:
1. location is okay
2. file has 777 chmod
simplyw00x
Code:
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=' . $file);

The filename needs to be an absolute path of some kind, or maybe relative to download.php.

No Luck...
Sad

I've tried what you have said but it just downloads the download.php and not the file...

Below is my sites download script:

Code:

//The $file Var comes from MySQL which is code above this one

$fileLocation = '/home/moejoe/domains/unlockit.frih.net/public_html/mobilefun/videos/download';

header("Cache-control: private");
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/force-download');//What about if i wanted to download lets say a Video Do i change the Type?
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize('$fileLocation' . $file));
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=' . $file);


Thanks Guys,
moejoe

header("Cache-control: private");
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/force-download');//What about if i wanted to download lets say a Video Do i change the Type?
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize('$fileLocation' . $file));

This is not the final Script..
Oh No, The Tutorial that i downloaded need more then just half the script So here it is:

This is the FULL fininshed file WITH Speed Limiting:

Code:
<?php

$fileName = 'myFiles.zip';
$fileLocation = '/home/domain.com/httpdocs/hiddenDownloads/';

/* In kB/s */
$speed = 10;

header("Cache-control: private");
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/force-download');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($fileLocation . $fileName));
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=' . $fileName);

if (!$file = fopen($fileLocation . $fileName, 'r')) {
    exit;
}

while (!feof($file)) {
    echo fread($file, $speed * 1024 * 8);
    flush();
    sleep(1);
}

@fclose($file);
?>
