I'm still struggling to Stream a file to the HTTP response in Pylons. In addition to the original problem, I'm finding that I cannot return the Content-Length header, so that for large files the client cannot estimate how long the download will take. I've tried
response.content_length = 12345
and I've tried
response.headers['Content-Length'] = 12345
In both cases the HTTP response (viewed in Fiddler) simply does not contain the Content-Length header. How do I get Pylons to return this header?
(Oh, and if you have any ideas on making it stream the file please reply to the original question - I'm all out of ideas there.)
