Thanks for the quick response Hugi. We tried using FileInputStream with setContentStream. It was also giving 0Kb files as well.

If you have an actual file, you might consider using a FileInputStream instead.

We are having an issue when the user attempts to download a large file (> 500MB - zip), where the app throws an Out of Memory error. The download functionality is coded by: 1. Converting the file to FileInputStream and then to NSData 2. appending the file to the WOResponse. a. response.appendContentData(fileNSData) This approach is described here : https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/WebObjects/Web_Applications/Development/Examples/Return_a_File We also tried using the following approach (also described in link above): 1. Using ByteArrayInputStream > response.setContentStream(byteIn, 4096, length); In both cases, the user receives a 0KB file. Does anyone have any recommended approaches to serve a large file through the application? Please note the file lives on the application server but for security purposes we wouldn’t want it directly accessible.
