We are using a PHP scripting for tunnelling file downloads, since we don\'t want to expose the absolute path of downloadable file:
header(\"Content-Type: $ctype\");
header(\"Content-Length: \" . filesize($file));
header(\"Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\\\"$fileName\\\"\");
readfile($file);
Unfortunately we noticed that downloads passed through this script can\'t be resumed by the end user.
Is there any way to support resumable downloads with such a PHP-based solution?
The first thing you need to do is to send the Accept-Ranges: bytes header in all responses, to tell the client that you support partial content. Then, if request with a Range: bytes=x-y header is received (with x and y being numbers) you parse the range the client is requesting, open the file as usual, seek x bytes ahead and send the next y - x bytes. Also set the response to HTTP/1.0 206 Partial Content.
Without having tested anything, this could work, more or less:
$filesize = filesize($file);
$offset = 0;
$length = $filesize;
if ( isset($_SERVER[\'HTTP_RANGE\']) ) {
// if the HTTP_RANGE header is set we\'re dealing with partial content
$partialContent = true;
// find the requested range
// this might be too simplistic, apparently the client can request
// multiple ranges, which can become pretty complex, so ignore it for now
preg_match(\'/bytes=(\\d+)-(\\d+)?/\', $_SERVER[\'HTTP_RANGE\'], $matches);
$offset = intval($matches[1]);
$length = intval($matches[2]) - $offset;
} else {
$partialContent = false;
}
$file = fopen($file, \'r\');
// seek to the requested offset, this is 0 if it\'s not a partial content request
fseek($file, $offset);
$data = fread($file, $length);
fclose($file);
if ( $partialContent ) {
// output the right headers for partial content
header(\'HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content\');
header(\'Content-Range: bytes \' . $offset . \'-\' . ($offset + $length) . \'/\' . $filesize);
}
// output the regular HTTP headers
header(\'Content-Type: \' . $ctype);
header(\'Content-Length: \' . $filesize);
header(\'Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"\' . $fileName . \'\"\');
header(\'Accept-Ranges: bytes\');
// don\'t forget to send the data too
print($data);
I may have missed something obvious, and I have most definitely ignored some potential sources of errors, but it should be a start.
There\'s a description of partial content here and I found some info on partial content on the documentation page for fread.
EDIT 2017/01 - I wrote a library to do this in PHP >=7.0 https://github.com/DaveRandom/Resume
EDIT 2016/02 - Code completely rewritten to a set of modular tools an an example usage, rather than a monolithic function. Corrections mentioned in comments below have been incorporated.
A tested, working solution (based heavily on Theo\'s answer above) which deals with resumable downloads, in a set of a few standalone tools. This code requires PHP 5.4 or later.
This solution can still only cope with one range per request, but under any circumstance with a standard browser that I can think of, this should not cause a problem.

Yes. Support byteranges. See RFC 2616 section 14.35 .
It basically means that you should read the Range header, and start serving the file from the specified offset.
This means that you can\'t use readfile(), since that serves the whole file. Instead, use fopen() first, then fseek() to the correct position, and then use fpassthru() to serve the file.
This works 100% super check it I am using it and no problems any more.

A really nice way to solve this without having to \"roll your own\" PHP code is to use the mod_xsendfile Apache module. Then in PHP, you just set the appropriate headers. Apache gets to do its thing.
header(\"X-Sendfile: /path/to/file\");
header(\"Content-Type: application/octet-stream\");
header(\"Content-Disposition: attachment; file=\\\"filename\\\"\");
If you\'re willing to install a new PECL module, the easiest way to support resumeable downloads with PHP is through http_send_file(), like this
<?php
http_send_content_disposition(\"document.pdf\", true);
http_send_content_type(\"application/pdf\");
http_throttle(0.1, 2048);
http_send_file(\"../report.pdf\");
?>
source : http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.http-send-file.php
We use it to serve database-stored content and it works like a charm !
The top answer has various bugs.
bytes a-b should mean [a, b] instead of [a, b), and bytes a- is not handled.Here\'s my modified code:
// TODO: configurations here
$fileName = \"File Name\";
$file = \"File Path\";
$bufferSize = 2097152;
$filesize = filesize($file);
$offset = 0;
$length = $filesize;
if (isset($_SERVER[\'HTTP_RANGE\'])) {
// if the HTTP_RANGE header is set we\'re dealing with partial content
// find the requested range
// this might be too simplistic, apparently the client can request
// multiple ranges, which can become pretty complex, so ignore it for now
preg_match(\'/bytes=(\\d+)-(\\d+)?/\', $_SERVER[\'HTTP_RANGE\'], $matches);
$offset = intval($matches[1]);
$end = $matches[2] || $matches[2] === \'0\' ? intval($matches[2]) : $filesize - 1;
$length = $end + 1 - $offset;
// output the right headers for partial content
header(\'HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content\');
header(\"Content-Range: bytes $offset-$end/$filesize\");
}
// output the regular HTTP headers
header(\'Content-Type: \' . mime_content_type($file));
header(\"Content-Length: $filesize\");
header(\"Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\\\"$fileName\\\"\");
header(\'Accept-Ranges: bytes\');
$file = fopen($file, \'r\');
// seek to the requested offset, this is 0 if it\'s not a partial content request
fseek($file, $offset);
// don\'t forget to send the data too
ini_set(\'memory_limit\', \'-1\');
while ($length >= $bufferSize)
{
print(fread($file, $bufferSize));
$length -= $bufferSize;
}
if ($length) print(fread($file, $length));
fclose($file);
Yes, you can use the Range header for that. You need to give 3 more headers to the client for a full download:
header (\"Accept-Ranges: bytes\");
header (\"Content-Length: \" . $fileSize);
header (\"Content-Range: bytes 0-\" . $fileSize - 1 . \"/\" . $fileSize . \";\");
Than for an interrupted download you need to check the Range request header by:
$headers = getAllHeaders ();
$range = substr ($headers[\'Range\'], \'6\');
And in this case don\'t forget to serve the content with 206 status code:
header (\"HTTP/1.1 206 Partial content\");
header (\"Accept-Ranges: bytes\");
header (\"Content-Length: \" . $remaining_length);
header (\"Content-Range: bytes \" . $start . \"-\" . $to . \"/\" . $fileSize . \";\");
You\'ll get the $start and $to variables from the request header, and use fseek() to seek to the correct position in the file.
This worked very well for me: https://github.com/pomle/php-serveFilePartial
Small composer enabled class which works the same way as pecl http_send_file. This means support for resumable downloads and throttle. https://github.com/diversen/http-send-file
Resuming downloads in HTTP is done through the Range header. If the request contains a Range header, and if other indicators (e.g. If-Match, If-Unmodified-Since) indicate that the content hasn\'t changed since the download was started, you give a 206 response code (rather than 200), indicate the range of bytes you\'re returning in the Content-Range header, then provide that range in the response body.
I don\'t know how to do that in PHP, though.
Thanks Theo! your method did not directly work for streaming divx because i found the divx player was sending ranges like bytes=9932800-
but it showed me how to do it so thanks :D
if(isset($_SERVER[\'HTTP_RANGE\']))
{
file_put_contents(\'showrange.txt\',$_SERVER[\'HTTP_RANGE\']);

$fileLength = $filesize;
$length = $filesize - 1;

$partialContent = true;
preg_match(\'/bytes=(\\d+)-(\\d+)?/\', $_SERVER[\'HTTP_RANGE\'], $matches);
$offset = intval($matches[1]);
$tempLength = intval($matches[2]) - 0;
if($tempLength != 0)
{
$length = $tempLength;
}
$fileLength = ($length - $offset) + 1;
} else {
$partialContent = false;
$offset = $length;
}
$file = fopen($file, \'r\');
// seek to the requested offset, this is 0 if it\'s not a partial content request
fseek($file, $offset);
$data = fread($file, $length);
fclose($file);
if ( $partialContent ) {
// output the right headers for partial content
header(\'HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content\');
}
// output the regular HTTP headers
header(\'Content-Type: \' . mime_content_type($fileLoc));
header(\'Content-Length: \' . $fileLength);
header(\'Content-Disposition: inline; filename=\"\' . $file . \'\"\');
header(\'Accept-Ranges: bytes\');
header(\'Content-Range: bytes \' . $offset . \'-\' . $length . \'/\' . $filesize);
// don\'t forget to send the data too
