req.sendfile(filename) sends an incorrect number of bytes when filename is a
symlink
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MODPYTHON-84
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-84
Project: mod_python
Type: Bug
Components: core
Versions: 3.1.4, 3.1.3, 3.2.0
Reporter: Jim Gallacher
Assigned to: Jim Gallacher
This issue was reported by Wim Heirman on the mod_python list:
When req.sendfile(filename) is called where filename is a symbolic link, only
part of the file is sent to the client (as many bytes as there are characters
in the symlink's file reference, so for a symlink pointing to '../index.html'
returns the first 13 bytes of the correct file).
Wim suggested changing APR_READ to APR_FINFO_NORM in the apr_stat call in
req_sendfile().
