Question file upload slow with http and fast with https on LAN

I tried to upload a file and it took ages to get uploaded on my LAN. I have spend several hours to search for a solution because i thought it was a php.ini problem.

Then i decided to switch to https and try that. An now I could upload with lightning speed.

Would could cause that?

your network traffic is only thing that would affect that and has nothing to do with kunena.

Hello,

Maybe you can try to test your internet connexion : www.kunena.com/forum/77-general-talk-abo...ion-performance-test

I have terrible problems with XAMPP running on a Windows host on my LAN at home. I don't have the problems if I'm running in a Windows XP server but it's awfully slow if I'm running on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 host. I think my problem has to do with the Windows firewall.

If running HTTPS works for you, that's good. I might give it a try myself ... one day.

Thanks for the replies. Internet connection and network traffic are not relevant in this case (I am the only user and it's on a LAN)
I do indeed use XAMPP, but on a w2003server. I also tried to disable the firewall but that does not change anything.

If I go to \xampp\tmp i can see the file comming in, but so sloooow (approx 10kb per second). I agree it probably has nothing to do with kunena, but it shows up here so i hoped that someone else has the same problem and found a solution.

and the weird thing is that if I logon to the server with remote desktop and start my browser on the server. Uploading goes fast over http to as well the localhost and to the www.myserver.com address.

I would then say it's network related, but than https should be slow as well. Weird huh?
