View your Apache logs after doing these mods, just in case the database has
died after your testing that worked:
It's also good to have these lines stay in there so you can debug later...
> <?php
> mysql_connect("localhost","user","pass");
... or error_log(0, "Could not connect to database in " . __FILE__ . ":" .
__LINE__);
> mysql_select_db("db");
... or error_log(0, "Could not select db in " . __FILE__ . ":" . __LINE__);
> $query = "SELECT file_path from photos where photos_id=$photos_id";
> $result = @mysql_query($query);
... or error_log(0, "Could not exec $query in " . __FILE__ . ":" .
__LINE__);
> $row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
> $path = $row[0];

> file://print "<div align=\"center\">$file_name</div>";

Why are you adding a \n there? That pretty much pukes the rest of the
headers, since it's a newline you've forced in, and now the other stuff is
part of the data, not the headers...
Also, use application/octet-stream for download, I think.
> header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$file_name");
> header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
Is this the full path or a relative path? I never trust relative paths when
it comes to file-system operations. But I have a low trust-value in
computers, software, and life in general. :-)

If you did it right, it would work. :-)
