<h1>Serving static files via web server<a class="headerlink" href="#serving-static-files-via-web-server" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>Since ownCloud 5 it is possible to let web servers handle static file serving.
This should generally improve performance (web servers are optimized for this) and in some cases permits controlled
file serving (i.e. pause and resume downloads).</p>
<div class="admonition note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p class="last">This feature can currently only be activated for local files, i.e. files inside the <strong>data/</strong> directory and local mounts. It also does not work with the Encryption App enabled.
Controlled file serving <strong>does not work for generated zip files</strong>. This is due to zip files being generated and streamed back directly to the client.</p>

<p>It is possible to let Apache handle static file serving via <a class="reference external" href="https://tn123.org/mod_xsendfile/">mod_xsendfile</a>.</p>
<div class="section" id="installation">
<h3>Installation<a class="headerlink" href="#installation" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>

<div class="section" id="configuration">
<h3>Configuration<a class="headerlink" href="#configuration" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>Configuration of mod_xsendfile for ownCloud depends on its version.
For versions below 0.10 (Debian squeeze ships with 0.9)</p>
<div class="highlight-xml"><pre><Directory /var/www/owncloud>
...
SetEnv MOD_X_SENDFILE_ENABLED 1
XSendFile On
XSendFileAllowAbove On
</Directory></pre>
</div>
<p>For versions >=0.10 (e.g. Ubuntu 12.10)</p>
<div class="highlight-xml"><pre><Directory /var/www/owncloud>
...
SetEnv MOD_X_SENDFILE_ENABLED 1
XSendFile On
XSendFilePath /home/valerio
</Directory></pre>
</div>
<ul class="simple">
<li><strong>SetEnv MOD_X_SENDFILE_ENABLED</strong>: tells ownCloud scripts that they should add the X-Sendfile header when serving files</li>
<li><strong>XSendFile</strong>: enables web server handling of X-Sendfile headers (and therefore file serving) for the specified Directory</li>
<li><strong>XSendFileAllowAbove (<0.10)</strong>: enables file serving through web server on path outside the specified Directory. This is needed for configured local mounts which may reside outside data directory</li>
<li><strong>XSendFilePath (>=0.10)</strong>: a white list of paths that the web server is allowed to serve outside of the specified Directory. Other paths which correspond to local mounts should be configured here as well. For a more in-depth documentation of this directive refer to mod_xsendfile website linked above</li>

<h2>LigHTTPd (X-Sendfile2)<a class="headerlink" href="#lighttpd-x-sendfile2" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>LigHTTPd uses similar headers to Apache2, apart from the fact that it does not handle partial downloads in the same way
Apache2 does. For this reason, a different method is used for LigHTTPd.</p>
<div class="section" id="id1">
<h3>Installation<a class="headerlink" href="#id1" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>X-Sendfile and X-Sendfile2 are supported by default in LigHTTPd and no additional operation should be needed to install it.</p>

<div class="section" id="id2">
<h3>Configuration<a class="headerlink" href="#id2" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>Your server configuration should include the following statements:</p>

"MOD_X_SENDFILE2_ENABLED" => "1",

<ul class="simple">
<li><strong>allow-x-send-file</strong>: enables LigHTTPd to use X-Sendfile and X-Sendfile2 headers to serve files</li>
<li><strong>bin-environment</strong>: is used to parse MOD_X_SENDFILE2_ENABLED to the ownCloud backend, to make it use the X-Sendfile and X-Sendfile2 headers in it’s response</li>
