Support Forum
Something is definately trying to allocate enough memory to hold the file. I just don't know what. I'm not aware of any anti-virus software running on my web server.
I've had 2 other people test it for me, including a support person at my web host (ixwebhosting), both had the same error.
now keep in mind, images may try to display, audio may try to post, video may try to play, if embedded.... that is how wp and sp work... but just a link will not be loaded...

I think this has beaten me.
- SP 4.5.1 also fails, but even on the 32MB test
- You say SP could not cause this.
- ixWebhosting says it's not them.
- WP posts containing the same links work.
- PHPBB posts containing the same links work.
- SMF1 posts containing the same links work.
- Mingle forum posts containing the same links work.
I have no idea where to go from here to get SP to work for me.
One last experiment:
I installed xampp on my win7 machine all settings are at the defaults.
Created a test site and installed WP and SP. Nothing else, not even any SP plugins.
Created a folder called files in the local test site and copied the 128MB text file to it.
Created one SP forum.
I then tried creating posts with links to large files in them.
Linking to the 128MB file on the local machine works.
Linking to the 128MB file on my web host fails.
Linking to a large test file I found on another site also fails. ( http://download.thinkbroadband...../100MB.zip )
The interesting thing here is that running from localhost the error is no longer an out of memory one. It's a timeout error.
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 120 seconds exceeded in C:xampphtdocsmike-warren_netwp-includesclass-http.php on line 906
Line 906 is $strResponse = stream_get_contents( $handle ); which looks like it's trying to load the file to me.
Given this new information and the fact that I now have a local setup I can play with, is there anything you want me to try?
Clearly it is trying to load the file hence the stream and CURL messages. But as you have discovered here, SP does not do this. Why would it? It is a simple link.
So you do really need to look at other environmental issues at play here. What other Wp plugins do you have active?

That's the mystery. My last test (the local one) was a fresh install of WP and all I did was add SP. I made no changes at all to either WP or SP. That last test has eliminated my web host from the picture completely. It doesn't seem likely that it's something on my computer causing the problem since 2 other people confirmed the problem. Plus, it doesn't happen for me on this site.
Do you have any suggestions for how I might go about finding the cause? I know less than nothing about php or I would get in there and add some debugging code. Is it even possible to set break-points and single step?
