proxied large file download works for some time, maybe 25% then shows network error in ms edge. direct download (and sftp uploads to) from server works without issues.
What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?
cloudflare SSL strict (full) is operational and is working with another domain with full file downloads, but with this domain on a different remote server the large files download results in network error. direct download works no issues. so issue must be with cloudflare operation for large file downloads.
What are the steps to reproduce the issue?
try to download proxied 15gb .mkv file from a dedicated vps server.
actually the same proxied large file download also affects the other domain. same network error after some time, even in a new file, not cached before.
The maximum size of a file that can be cached is 512MB other than for Enterprise plans…
Note that delivery of large files using the CDN is not permitted by the Cloudflare ToS. You should consider using Cloudflare R2 or direct download from your origin instead.
Your issue may just be a connection issue between the client and Cloudflare, or Cloudflare and your origin, but delivering large files that way is not permitted by the ToS unless you have an Enterprise plan or use of R2 or other Cloudflare Developer platform product.
WordPress posts (HTML) and images (up to 500kb), having news portal, traffic 10-20k visitors, generating 1TB web traffic daily, can work fine at Cloudflare
If you cannot download e.g. 1GB file to your device using your ISP speed within 100 seconds over a proxied I am afraid the connection timeouts and doesn’t continue.
again, my direct download of the same file from the same server, works just fine, no network error. so its Cloudflare internal issue. either the file size disconnect or their connection to the internet, if they dont forcibly disconnect large files.
