Whats your error?

Error 404

[Free WordPress Themes]

works for me (at least the files I tried to download)

maybe you can describe where the error occurs

wait.. sorry.. i thought u meant what kinda of error is ( like 404, 504). im not getting any errors but the thing is that. http://www.web-development-blog.com/tutorials/limit_file_download.zip , this script allows the web to limit that downloads for certain amount of time before you can download again. and i cant seem to run..

there are two file into that zip link.. .htaccess and dl.php

i dont know how to run it. they said by just modifying the two files and  adding them to your main folder would to the trick but it doesnt.

sweet, it works..... by the way, is there a way i can display how much a user or an IP used their MB?? and or  i can reset their bandwidth so they can start playing songs again?

you need to store the used bandwidth in the same database table and need to change the query a little bit

Delirious this is not that hard to achieved. Just keep a record in your database with the times that every user downloads a file

Well for me kinda is... i know some php but not that much...
i have now database of last downloaded file and if someone download file
he can download it again after some time... and it all works by recgonizing ip....
anything more i dont know how to make... can you help me with that maybe?!

You actually need a table that you will hold 2 things: ip and number of downloads.

Each time someone downloads a file you should :

1) Check if this ip downloaded the file more than X times
2) Update the table by adding one to the count of the downoader's ip

I hope this helps, because at the moment I don't have time to write the script for you. If you can't do it, then post an ad here and I am sure someone will make it for you for some money

Actually i have script already but i want one more function i think its not that hard to make if someone know
how to....
limit number of downloads per day...
here is the script

dl.php

Code:

<?php
// change this value below
$cs_conn = mysql_connect('localhost', 'db_user', 'password');
mysql_select_db('db_name', $cs_conn);

mysql_query("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `downloaded` (
  `filepath` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `ipadres` varchar(15) NOT NULL,
  `last_access` datetime NOT NULL,
  UNIQUE KEY `filepath` (`filepath`,`ipadres`),
  KEY `ipadres` (`ipadres`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;");

$path = addslashes($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
$ip = addslashes($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);
$dl = false;

$sql = sprintf("SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(last_access) last_time FROM downloaded WHERE filepath = '%s' AND ipadres = '%s' ORDER BY last_access DESC", $path, $ip);
$res = mysql_query($sql);
if (mysql_num_rows($res) > 0) {
$last_xs = mysql_result($res, 0, 'last_time')+3600;
if ($last_xs < time()) {
mysql_query(sprintf("REPLACE downloaded SET filepath = '%s', ipadres = '%s', last_access = NOW()", $path, $ip));
$dl = true;
} 
} else {
$sql = sprintf("REPLACE downloaded SET filepath = '%s', ipadres = '%s', last_access = NOW()", $path, $ip);
mysql_query($sql);
$dl = true;
}

if ($dl) {
$fullPath = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].$path; 
if ($fd = fopen ($fullPath, "r")) {
$fname = basename($fullPath);
header('Content-type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Disposition: filename="'.$fname.'"');
header('Content-length: '.filesize($fullPath));
header('Cache-control: private'); 
while(!feof($fd)) {
$buffer = fread($fd, 2048);
echo $buffer;
}
fclose ($fd);
exit;
}
} else {
header('HTTP/1.0 503 Service Unavailable');
die('Abort, you reached your download limit for this file.');
}
?>

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*)(pdf|zip)$ /files/dl.php [QSA]

Look delirious this is not the way things work. If you need to learn everyone here would be glad to help you. But you want a solution which sounds more of a job.

It is easy to create the script you ask but it requires 30 minutes to 1 hour for someone to write it and that's not free for any developer. I hope you understand what I am saying

Eh this is not friendly community, u want me to hire someone....and with that you wont come anywhere... sory for posting
on this forum anyway, cya

Oh my god I can't believe this.....

If I wanted more clients delirious maybe I was posting to freelancer and I wouldn't create a community to learn others how I make money from internet.

Just realize that we - web developers - are real people, using real clothes, eating real food, paying real bills and we do that by programming web sites. It is ok to help someone learn what I know but I am sorry that I can't work for free

Well as i see there is no other solution and i will have to pay .... i would pay just want to know if any good coder avaliable.
Eh maybe i said too much, sory for dirty words

No worries delirious. Just post here exactly what you want and you will find someone to do it for you (there are a few professional developers in this site)
