Dear All

How can i enable byte range request? While pod casting on itunes it gives an error message "There is a problem with your feed. Your episodes are hosted on a server which doesn’t support byte-range requests. Enable byte-range requests and try your submission again.". Please give me a method to enable byte range request

byte=range requests are requests to download specified parts of a file. If you are serving the file directly, then this would be the job of the web server software. If it is apache, then it should support it, but there may need to be a flag to enable it, but I though it was enabled by default.

If you are using Drupal to server the files (they are stored within a directory that the web server can't directly access, and Drupal is sending the file after checking permissions, than the Drupal code would need to be checking the byte range requested, and sending just that piece. If the core code can't handle it, then someone needs to write a module to add that ability.
