I use ASP.NET MVC 5. I have a function called Download() in the controller to give the user request files. I have to zip files in the directory and deliver it as one zip file. These files are big (e.g, need to support ~100 GB download)
Here is my attempt to make that function work
public ActionResult Download()
{
var fileName = Path.GetRandomFileName() + ".zip";
using (var zip = new ZipFile(fileName))
{
zip.CompressionLevel = CompressionLevel.BestCompression;
zip.UseZip64WhenSaving = Zip64Option.Always;
zip.AddDirectory(Server.MapPath(directory));
var output = new MemoryStream();
//zip.Save(output);
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=" + fileName);
Response.Buffer = true;
Response.BufferOutput = true;
zip.Save(Response.OutputStream);
Response.Flush();
output.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
return File(output, "application/zip", "Compilation.zip");
}
}
The files and the directory is always constant, where in the client it is just a button.
So far I've tested it with files < 1 GB in total, it works. However, an exception gets thrown when the files are > 1 GB in total. I've got this exception
Not enough storage is available to process this command.
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070008)
Source Error:
Line 50: Response.Flush();
I wonder, did I miss some configuration in the MVC web.config settings or somewhere in the IIS Manager settings? Or is it purely an implementation problem that I should implement the zip files/directory and download zip file on the fly method the other way.
EDIT: To verify, My disk still have enough space so I don't know intuitively why it complains about not having enough storage.
EDIT 2: The function works by making the Response.BufferOutput = false;
. However there is a consequence in this piece where there is cache anymore when this function is being called. Might've cost some performance when it is being called frequently. I wonder if the storage error is because of the buffer size.
PS: Here is the stack trace, if it helps:
[COMException (0x80070008): Not enough storage is available to process this command. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070008)]
[HttpException (0x80004005): An error occurred while communicating with the remote host. The error code is 0x80070008.]

Response.BufferOutput = false;
return File(fileStream, contentType);
try using this combination this will help you for download
.
this may take while but file will be downloaded
successfully.
I used this method and I tested it on 2GB file :
public FileResult BookCover(string id,string mimeType)
{
return new FilePathResult("~/yourpath/cover.png", mimeType);
//use this if you want to return byte[]
// return File(data, mimeType);
}
