Download abnormal

[skate2k5]

I have made ​​available for downlaod ten pdf files , but I noticed in a few days about 11,000 downloads a pdf file and no others .
It could be spam ?

Hi, yes, probably yes. Which version of Phoca Download you are running. In latest Phoca Download, version 3.x you can enable logging, so you can see some more info about download.

Hi,
backend --> Components --> Phoca Download --> Control Panel --> Options --> General -->
Enable Logging=(choose parameter)
Save & Close

Hi,

it seems so
As Benno already wrote, additional info:

Enable or disable logging for downloads, uploads or both. Be aware, logging of downloads and uploads can take a lot of memory in case a lot of downloads or uploads is done on your site. It is recommended to enable it only for short testing period

May be this helps also: Options > Downloads:

Set maximum count of files user can download. Be aware, 0 (Zero) means, there is no limit. It is limit per file NOT for all downloads. If you set some limit here, anonymous users (guests) are not able to download any file.

Make an update please to version 3.1.0

Kind regards, Christine
