Does deleting temporary symlinks interrupt current downloads/access to that symlink?
- by Joe
I am using symlinks generated in PHP. They are generated when someone requests a download, and I want them to expire at the end of each day.
The problem is, what if someone starts downloading a symlink 1 minute before the end of the day and then I delete the symlink while they are downloading it...
My question is, to your knowledge will that individual downloading the symlink, right before I delete it, still be able to "download" the file? I am not worried about "resumable download" capability.. but will it make their download stop or break in some way?
