how do you send the file to the user? is it going through a servlet, or is it just "normal file download" through e.g. apache? in the later case, it will get complicated.... easy solution is to serve the file through a servlet, and if your servlet doesn't get any ioexception during sending the file, and exits normally from eg. doGet() or doPost(), than the file should've been received by the user's browser. but there is still a small chance that the user didn't get it if there is a proxy inbetween, which gets the whole file even if the user cancels the download. but normaly that shouldn't happen as most proxies do not cache files, expecially if you set the cache http headers correctly.

Is it possible to know if the download finished correctly (if the file was really received by the user)?
